Is the switch managed or unmanaged?

Fully unmanaged with plug-and-play operation. It automatically learns MAC addresses in a 1000-entry table, supports auto-negotiation, and requires no configuration for deployment.

What is the switching capacity and performance?

1.6 Gbps switching capacity with 32 KB buffer per port. Enables non-blocking Fast Ethernet, IEEE 802.3x flow control, and segmentation for efficient network utilization.

What are the physical dimensions and mounting options?

Measures 7.8 x 4.8 x 1.6 inches (1U height), weighs 1.5 lbs. Compact desktop form factor; rack-mountable in standard 19-inch racks using optional four-way mounting kit.

What power requirements does it have?

External AC power adapter (100-127/200-240 VAC, 0.4/0.2 A, 50/60 Hz), 15W consumption, 52 BTU/hr max heat. No power switch; always on when connected, 12-13V DC nominal.

What LEDs are available for monitoring?

Power LED, Fault LED, and per-port LEDs for link status and activity. Provides at-a-glance visibility into port connections and network health without management software.

Product overview

The HP ProCurve Switch 408 (SKU: J4097-80299) is a Layer 2 unmanaged Ethernet switch designed for small to medium-sized businesses. It features 8 auto-sensing 10/100Base-TX RJ-45 ports supporting IEEE 802.3 and 802.3u standards, with Auto-MDIX on all ports for automatic straight-through or crossover cable detection. Half or full duplex auto-sensing enables up to 200 Mbps per port throughput, backed by a 1.6 Gbps switching capacity and 1000-entry MAC address table. Unmanaged plug-and-play operation simplifies deployment, with automatic hardware address learning and auto-negotiation. Compact desktop form factor (7.8 x 4.8 x 1.6 inches, 1.5 lbs) supports rack-mounting with optional kit. Status LEDs indicate power, fault, link, and activity. Powered by external 12-13V adapter (15W consumption, 100-127/200-240 VAC). Ideal for connecting computers, printers, servers in small networks, ensuring reliable Fast Ethernet performance without configuration.
