6 HP ProCurve 5400zl Series
The ProCurve Series 5400zl Switches include the 5406zl, 5412zl and their bundles, the 5406zxl-48G
and the 5412zl-96G. They are multi-port modular switches that provide Layer 3 routing features,
and that feature low latency for high-speed networking. This chapter presents the following
information relating to these switches:
An overview of the HP ProCurve 5406zl (see
Section 6.1
).
An overview of the HP ProCurve 5412zl (see
Section 6.2
).
Features of the HP ProCurve 5400zl Series include:
6 or 12 slots for installing any of the available Switch zl Modules. Supported Modules: As
of this printing, the supported zl modules include:
24-port 10/100/1000-T zl PoE Module (J8702A) -- which can provide Power over Ethernet
(PoE) power to 802.3af compliant (and some pre-standard) devices. For more information
on PoE power refer to the
ProCurve PoE Planning and Implementation Guide
. For more
information on the J8702A module refer to the
ProCurve Switch zl Modules Installation
Guide
.
20-port Gig-T and 4-port mini-GBIC/SFP zl PoE Module (J8705A)-- into which you can
install the supported mini-GBICs, the Gigabit-SX LC mini-GBIC (J4858B), the Gigabit-LX
LC mini-GBIC (J4859B), the Gigabit-LH LC mini-GBIC (J4860B), and the 1000Base-T
mini-GBIC (J8177A)
24-port mini-GBIC zl Module (8706A)-- into which you can install the supported
mini-GBICs, see above.
4-port 10 Gig-X2 zl Module (J8707A) -- into which you can install the supported X2 fiber
optic transceivers:
