HPE J4905A Network Switch Networking

The ProCurve 3400cl Switch series consists of exceptionally affordable 24- and 48-port 10/100/1000 intelligent edge stackables with optional 10-Gigabit uplinks and stacking capability. Created in response to the growing need for network capacity in a world where high-demand applications are becoming common, these standards-based Layer 3 switches provide outstanding performance, traffic management, and access control capabilities. The result is an efficient, secure, high-throughput, multi-service network that is able to handle the demands of today's applications as well as those that will emerge in the future.

Connectivity

• Dual-personality functionality: four 10/100/1000 ports or mini-GBIC slots for optional fiber connectivity such as Gigabit-SX, -LX, or -LH


Performance

• 88 Gbps backplane with 64 million pps (HP ProCurve 3400cl-24G) and 136 Gbps backplane with 99.5 million pps (HP ProCurve 3400cl-48G): up to ten times the bandwidth for low-latency throughput


Resiliency and high availability

• Router redundancy (XRRP): allows groups of two routers to dynamically back each other up to create highly available routed environments


Layer 2 switching

• ProCurve switch meshing: dynamically load-balances across multiple active redundant links to increase available aggregate bandwidth


Layer 3 routing

• Layer 3 IP routing: provides routing of IP at media speed; supports static routes, RIP, RIPv2, and OSPF


Security

• Access control lists (ACLs): provide IP Layer 3 filtering based on source/destination IP address/subnet and source/destination TCP/UDP port number


Convergence

• IP multicast routing (PIM Dense): routes IP multicast traffic using the PIM Dense routing protocol
