J8708-69101 - HP ProCurve Switch 5400zl 4-Port 10-GbE CX4 Module - 4 x 10GBase-CX4

Description

The HP J8708-69101 is a high-performance expansion module designed to augment the capabilities of HP ProCurve 5400zl series modular switches. It features four ports that adhere to the 10GBase-CX4 standard, delivering a blazing fast 10 Gigabit Ethernet speed per port. This module is specifically engineered to provide high-bandwidth connectivity for demanding network environments, such as connecting to servers with 10GbE network interface cards or aggregating traffic from other high-speed network devices. The 10GBase-CX4 interface utilizes CX4 cabling, which is a copper-based solution known for its cost-effectiveness and suitability for shorter-reach connections, typically up to 15 meters. This makes the J8708-69101 an excellent choice for rack-level connectivity within data centers, enabling direct, high-speed links between switches and servers without the need for fiber optic transceivers and cabling over short distances. As a hot-swappable module, the J8708-69101 can be installed or replaced without interrupting the operation of the 5400zl switch chassis. This feature is crucial for maintaining network uptime and facilitating seamless upgrades or expansions. By adding this module, network administrators can significantly boost the throughput and capacity of their ProCurve 5400zl switches, supporting bandwidth-intensive applications and ensuring efficient data flow.
