HP GbE2c Layer 2-3 Ethernet Blade Switch

Designed for the c-Class BladeSystem enclosure, the HP 440627-B21 Ethernet Blade Switch (GbE2c Layer 2/3) provides a full set of Layer 2 switching and Layer 3 routing features, sixteen internal downlinks, five uplinks and two internal cross-connects in a single low cost blade switch. Four of the five uplinks can be either copper or fiber using optional SFP fiber modules. The HP GbE2c Layer 2/3 Switch dramatically reduces cabling, power and cooling requirements compared to external stand-alone switches, allowing you to realize the full benefits of the HP c-Class BladeSystem.

The HP GbE2c Layer 2/3 Ethernet Blade Switch builds on the heritage of the GbE2 switch family by delivering on-going enhancements such as a new “industry standard” CLI, Layer 3 routing, high availability features and SFP Fiber uplink ports. Along with simplified management, wire-speed performance, redundant path capabilities and HP’s world class service and support, the HP GbE2c Layer 2/3 Ethernet Blade Switch remains the price/performance leader of all blade switches.
