712695-001 - HP Moonshot 45-Port 1/10G Network Switch

Description

The HP 712695-001 Moonshot 45 x Port 1/10G Switch Module is a high-density networking component designed for the HP Moonshot ProLiant Server System. This module offers a significant number of ports, specifically 45 ports that can operate at either 1 Gigabit Ethernet (1GbE) or 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10GbE) speeds. This flexibility allows administrators to tailor network connectivity to the specific needs of the compute cartridges installed within the Moonshot chassis, supporting a wide range of applications and performance requirements. This switch module serves as a crucial element for providing network access to the compute cartridges. Its high port density is ideal for environments where numerous servers or compute nodes need to be connected within a compact footprint. The ability to support both 1GbE and 10GbE speeds provides a cost-effective and scalable solution, allowing for upgrades to higher speeds as application demands increase without requiring a complete hardware replacement. The 712695-001 module is engineered to integrate seamlessly into the Moonshot chassis, contributing to the system's overall modularity and ease of management. It facilitates efficient data aggregation and distribution, ensuring that traffic between the compute cartridges and the external network is handled effectively. This module is essential for enabling the full potential of the Moonshot platform for various workloads, including cloud computing, web hosting, and high-performance computing.
