Product Description
The HP 3500-48G-PoE (J8693-61401) is a high-performance, fully managed Layer 3 switch designed to provide robust networking solutions for enterprise environments. It offers 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports, each capable of delivering 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds, along with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support according to the IEEE 802.3af standard. This allows the switch to power connected devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras directly over the Ethernet cable, simplifying deployment and reducing cabling costs. In addition to the 48 copper Gigabit ports, the switch includes 5 SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) expansion slots. These slots can accommodate various SFP transceivers (sold separately) for flexible fiber optic or copper uplinks, enabling high-speed connections to other network devices or the core network. The switch boasts a switching capacity of 104 Gbps and a forwarding rate of 77.4 million packets per second, ensuring efficient data handling even under heavy network loads. As a Layer 3 switch, the J8693-61401 supports advanced routing protocols, enabling it to perform inter-VLAN routing and connect different network segments. This makes it suitable for complex network designs requiring segmentation and efficient traffic management. Its comprehensive feature set, including Quality of Service (QoS), security features, and robust management capabilities, makes it a versatile solution for demanding enterprise networks.
