What ports does the HP ProCurve 2900-48G offer?

It provides 44 auto-sensing 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports (Auto-MDIX, half/full duplex where applicable), 4 dual-personality ports (RJ-45 or mini-GBIC), 2 CX4 10-GbE ports (IEEE 802.3ak full duplex), 2 open 10-GbE X2 slots, and 1 RS-232C DB-9 console port for comprehensive access and management connectivity.

What is the switching capacity and throughput?

The switch delivers 115 Gbps switching capacity with up to 111.5 million pps throughput for 64-byte packets. Latency is under 3.7 µs at 1 Gbps and 2.1 µs at 10 Gbps, ensuring high-performance non-blocking operation in enterprise environments.

What management protocols are supported?

Supports IEEE 802.1X, 802.1Q VLANs, GVRP, 802.1p QoS, SNMPv1/v2c/v3, HTML/telnet, RFC 1493/1213/2737/792, UDLD, and Find-Fix-Inform. Console port allows CLI access for detailed configuration and monitoring.

What are the table sizes for MAC and routing?

Features a 64,000-entry MAC address table and 2,000-entry routing table, enabling support for large-scale Layer 2 switching and Layer 3 lite routing across extensive VLAN deployments without address limitations.

What is the form factor and environmental range?

1U rack-mountable (15.43 x 17.44 x 1.73 inches, 14.11 lbs) with operating temperature 0°C to 55°C. Uses internal fixed power supply with optional external RPS/EPS for redundancy in enterprise racks.

Is this a Layer 2 or Layer 3 switch?

Managed Gigabit Ethernet switch with enterprise-class Layer 2 features (VLANs, 802.1X, QoS) and Layer 3 lite capabilities (routing table of 2,000 entries), ideal for access layer with static routing needs.
