HP 10512 Switch Chassis

The HP 10500 series switches set a new benchmark for performance, reliability, and scalability with a next-generation CLOS architecture. Designed for enterprise campus core networks, the HP 10500 enables a cloud-connected and media-rich capable infrastructure. The 10500 provides industry leading 10GbE/40GbE port density, 3 microsecond latency, and very low energy consumption. With HP IRF technology, the HP 10500 scalability and resiliency can be extended and virtualized across up to 4-chassis with a single management interface enabling flatter, more agile networks. The HP 10500 along with the entire HP FlexNetwork achitecture can be seamlessly managed through a single-pane-of-glass with HP Intelligent Management Center (IMC).

Quality of Service (QoS)

• IEEE 802.1p prioritization: delivers data to devices based on the priority and type of traffic


Firewall

• Stateful firewall: enforces firewall policies to control traffic and filter access to network services; maintains session information for every connection passing through it, enabling the firewall to control packets based on existing sessions


Virtual private network (VPN)

• IPSec: provides secure tunneling over an untrusted network such as the Internet or a wireless network; offers data confidentiality, authenticity, and integrity between two endpoints of the network


Management

• Management interface control: each of the following interfaces can be enabled or disabled depending on security preferences: console port, telnet port, or reset button


Connectivity

• High-density port connectivity: up to 12interface module slots; up to 48 40-GbE ports, 576 10-GbE ports, 576gigabit fiber/electrical ports per system


Performance

• High-speed fully distributed architecture: 21.78 Tbps capable backplane that supports up to 11.52 Tbps switching capacity with Type D fabric modules, providing non-blocking wire-speed 10GbE/40GbEperformance & future 100GbE expansion capability; with 4 fabrics, the switch delivers up to 8571 Mpps throughput; all switching and routing is performed in the I/O modules; meets today's and future demand of bandwidth intensive applications


Resiliency and high availability

• Redundant/Load-sharing fabrics, management, fan assemblies, and power supplies: increase total performance and power available while providing hitless, stateful failover
