Product Features
Technical Overview
This switch operates as a full Layer 3 device, enabling routing between VLANs and supporting advanced network protocols for scalable design. The 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports deliver PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) power, with each port capable of supplying up to 30W per port, ideal for powering devices like IP cameras and access points without separate power adapters.
The dual SFP+ slots support 10 Gigabit Ethernet connections, allowing for high-bandwidth uplinks to core switches or servers using either optical fiber (10GBase-X) or copper (10GBase-T) transceivers. Managed through HPE's intuitive interface, it offers features like Quality of Service (QoS), VLANs, and security protocols to optimize network performance and control.
Relevant factors for this section include Total Number of Network Ports, Uplink Port, Modular, Media Type Supported. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.
