HP ProCurve Switch 1600M
A fixed port switch with sixteen fixed 10/100Mbps autosensing ports and one expansion slot,
primarily for Gigabit connectivity, but will accept any of the modules listed with the HP ProCurve
Switch 8000M above. Same software feature set as the Switch 8000M. Ideal for server farm
connectivity.
HP ProCurve Switch 4000M
The HP ProCurve Switch 4000M is a modular switch that comes standard with (40) 10/100 Base-T
UTP autosensing ports, with five open slots for additional modules. The HP ProCurve Switch can
support up to (80) 10/100 autosensing 10/100Base-T ports, uses the same modules as the
Switch 8000M, and is ideal for scaleable/expandable low-cost migration to 10/100 desktop
switching for smaller groups of users.
HP ProCurve Switch 2424M
The HP ProCurve Switch 2424M provides 24 fixed 10/100 Base-T autosensing ports and one
expansion slot that accepts any of the 8000M/1600M/4000M modules. There is also a HP ProCurve
Switch 2424M Stacking Module available that provides two full-duplex transceiver-based Gigabit
ports. Transceivers available are Gigabit SX and LX and a Stacking Kit that provides a low cost
stacking connection between HP ProCurve Switch 2424Ms. The HP ProCurve Switch 2424M is ideal
for low cost migration 10/100 desktop switching for smaller groups of users.
HP ProCurve Switch 2224
Fixed configuration unmanaged desktop switch with (24) autosensing 10/100 Mbps ports, one of
the UTP ports can be used as a 100Base-FX port with the addition of an optional transceiver.
