HP 5092-0862 16 x GE 14 x GB Copper + 2 x Dual P Gbe Switch Module

Product Description

The HP 5092-0862 is a high-density Gigabit Ethernet switch module designed to enhance the capabilities of the HP ProCurve 5400zl modular chassis. It offers a robust combination of 16 autosensing 10/100/1000Base-T copper ports, providing ample connectivity for a wide range of end devices such as workstations, IP phones, and access points. This extensive copper port density makes it suitable for large workgroup environments or network edge deployments where numerous wired connections are required. Complementing the copper ports are two dual-personality ports. These ports offer exceptional flexibility, allowing administrators to choose between a standard RJ-45 copper connection or an SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) transceiver slot for fiber optic connectivity. This dual-personality feature is invaluable for network design, enabling seamless integration with both copper-based infrastructure and fiber optic uplinks to core switches or other network segments, supporting longer distances or higher bandwidth requirements. As a module for the 5400zl series, the 5092-0862 benefits from the chassis's advanced features, including robust management capabilities, high availability, and scalability. It allows organizations to tailor their network infrastructure precisely, adding Gigabit Ethernet capacity where it's needed most. This module is ideal for enterprises looking to upgrade their network backbone or distribution layer to support increasing bandwidth demands from modern applications and devices.
