ProCurve Networking by HP has introduced a set of layer 3/4 LAN switches that feature wirespeed performance and integrated gigabit power over ethernet (PoE).
The ProCurve 5400 chassis family and ProCurve 3500 stackable family together scale across a range of 24 to 288 gigabit ports with identical features and performance.
Both are based on the ProVision ASIC, the fourth generation of custom-designed ASICs from ProCurve that delivers intelligence and control to the edge of a network.
Both switch series further sharpen ProCurve's Adaptive EDGE architecture by delivering advanced functionality to the network edge to meet the evolving needs of security, mobility and convergence applications.
