HP extends data center, campus switches

摘要

The data center and campus switches HP rolled out last week are intended to better align HP's data center compute and networking products for an enterprise customer battle with Cisco. The products included blade switches designed to reduce cost and improve security in the data center; an 8Gbps FibreChannel Virtual Connect module and firmware upgrade intended to tune bandwidth to application requirements; and new chassis and modules for its ProCurvern5400 and 8200 Ethernet switches to provide an array of configurations denending on network need.
