BANGALORE: ProCurve Networking, a business unit of HP and supplier of enterprise networking solutions, has launched a new series of stackable 10Gb Ethernet switches designed to reduce network bottlenecks and up the performance of high-bandwidth applications.
The switches, featuring two models - the ProCurve Switch 2900-24G with 24 10/100/1000 ports and the ProCurve Switch 2900-48G with 48 10/100/1000 ports – are aimed at corporate, educational, health-care and government users. They can connect to a large number of PCs, servers and other devices that require high-performance uplinks, supporting bandwidth-intensive applications such as large databases, networked storage, server farms or multimedia applications such as IP-video.
Both the models include four integrated 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports, are simple to configure, and come with security and management features.
"Users now demand more flexibility and higher performance, supporting new high-bandwidth applications without impacting other network users, and the 2900 Series is a cost-effective solution which also offers ease of use and management, as well as strong security,” said Louis Au, Vice President and General Manager of ProCurve Networking Asia Pacific and Japan.
The integrated four 10GbE can be configured to be stacking, uplink, or a mix of both. Also, static IP routing with key security and management capabilities provides the ability to segment the network and route between VLANs.
