Overview HP PS1810 Switch Series devices are smart-managed, fixed-configuration Gigabit Layer 2 switches that are purpose built to work with HP Pro Liant Gen 8 Servers. They are designed for small businesses looking for key networking features in an easy-to-administer solution. The series
Includes:: 8- & 24-port Gigabit switch models. 24 port model include SFP ports for fiber connectivity. 8 port model has an innovative design that allows it to be stacke on the HP Proliant Micro Server Gen 8. Both models have fanless design making them ideal for office deployments. The 8-port Gigabit Ethernet model can optionally be powered by an upstream Power over Ethernet (Po E) switch. Key feature is the auto-discovery & monitoring of HP Proliant Servers. Customizable features include VLANs, Spanning Tree, & link aggregation trunking. The 8- & 24-port models include the latest energy-saving capabilities? Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) & idle-port power down All come with a lifetime warranty. Features Management • HP Proliant Server Dashboard: enables autodiscovery of HP Pro Liant Gen 8 servers in the network; provides up-to-date server health status for up to ten monitored servers Connectivity • Auto-MDI/MDIX: adjusts automatically for straight-through or crossover cables on all ports Layer 2 switching • VLAN support & tagging: supports up to 64 port-based VLANs & dynamic configuration of IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging, providing security between workgroups Resiliency & high availability • IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) & IEEE 802.1W Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP; v 2 models): provides redundant links while preventing network loops Security • Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): encrypts all HTTP traffic, allowing secure access to the browser-based management GUI in the switch Ease of use • Locator LED (switch): allows users to set the locator LED on a specific switch to either turn on, blink, or turn off; simplifies troubleshooting by making it easy to locate a particular switch within a rack of similar switches Flexibility • Flexible mounting options: stacks physically on top of an HP Pro Liant Micro Server Gen 8 due to the unique design of the switch (8-port model); 24-port model ships with rackmount kit; both switches support desktop, wall mount, & under table mounting options
