- Dual-personality functionality: two 10/100/1000 ports or mini-GBIC slots for optional fiber connectivity such as Gigabit-SX, -LX, or -LH
- 13.6 Gbps (ProCurve 2650 and 2650-PWR)/9.6 Gbps (ProCurve 2626, 2626-PWR, 2600-8-PWR) backplane: wire-speed non-blocking architecture for low-latency throughput
- IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) and ProCurve trunking: support up to 6 trunks, each with up to 4 links (ports) per trunk; trunking across modules is supported
- VLAN support and tagging: support complete IEEE 802.1Q (4,096 VLAN IDs) and 253 VLANs simultaneously
Designed for mid-size enterprises that require a smaller, more cost effective switch without sacrificing performance, the Switch 2626 broadens the scope of HPE's Ethernet switch offerings, providing a lower cost option as a part of the HPE Switch 2600 series.
The HPE Switch 2626 supports advanced network applications, including advanced network security and converged data and voice networks. With minimal configuration needs, the switch offers easy, plug-n-play enterprise deployment. The Switch 2626 provides the stackable 10/100 port density needed in smaller wiring closets today for aggregation at the edge of the network. With wire-speed performance and scalable port density, enterprises can utilize this lower cost option while still satisfying the performance demands of corporate environments.
