The HP 1900-8G Switch delivers entry-level Layer 2 Gigabit switching solutions in a compact and quiet desktop enclosure that is customized and priced for small and midsized organizations. Without sacrificing the functionality normally required on managed networks, this managed switch offers tremendous value to small and medium businesses that need a level of control over their network not offered by unmanaged switching products—but also require a low-cost solution. The 1900-8G switch helps build a voice-ready network with QoS, RADIUS authentication, and other features. The switch has seven 10/100/1000 ports, and a dual-purpose Gigabit port (configurable as 10/100/1000 copper or SFP-based fiber) to connect to high-performance computers, servers, or network backbones. To provide improved use of network bandwidth and outstanding voice and data quality, businesses can direct traffic flow according to their needs.
