Designed for the c-Class BladeSystem enclosure, the HP GbE2c Layer 2/3 Ethernet Blade Switch (GbE2c Layer 2/3) provides a full set of Layer 2 switching and Layer 3 routing features, sixteen internal downlinks, five uplinks and two internal cross-connects in a single low cost blade switch. Four of the five uplinks can be either copper or fiber using optional SFP fiber modules. The HP GbE2c Layer 2/3 Switch dramatically reduces cabling, power and cooling requirements compared to external stand-alone switches, allowing you to realize the full benefits of the HP c-Class BladeSystem.
The HP GbE2c Layer 2/3 Ethernet Blade Switch builds on the heritage of the GbE2 switch family by delivering on-going enhancements such as a new "industry standard" CLI, Layer 3 routing, high availability features and SFP Fiber uplink ports. Along with simplified management, wire-speed performance, redundant path capabilities and HP's world class service and support, the HP GbE2c Layer 2/3 Ethernet Blade Switch remains the price/performance leader of all blade switches.

Ideal for...
Large enterprise data centers
- Up to 40Gb full duplex bandwidth when using two switches
- All Ports can be trunked together to meet high bandwidth demands
- Standards-based MSTP enables Network administrators to map multiple VLANs to a reduced number of Spanning Tree instances to provide multiple forwarding paths and load balancing for data traffic.
Key vertical applications such as Financial, Scientific, or Application Service Providers
- Provides high availability that keeps systems up with minimum downtime
- Applications can be configured in separate VLANs to provide security against unauthorized accesses
- SNMP traps and easy to read Sys log messages keep administrators well informed of any link changes or outages so corrective actions can be performed in timely manner.
Mainstream/mid-sized data centers and departments, branch offices
- A fully featured Layer 2/3 switch that resides inside the BladeSystem enclosure
- Provides easy access to the switch via SNMP (v1, v2 and v3), HTTP/HTTPS SSH and intuitive web based interface
- Any to any port mirroring enables administrators to monitor all traffic entering and leaving the BladeSystem chassis.
