The HP 7500 Switch Series are designed for the evolving network demands of a campus LAN core aggregation and access layer. They deliver up to 160 Gbps of switching capacity per slot and up to 1500 W for PoE/PoE+ power per slot for mission-critical applications and high-speed communications.

Broad offering of interfaces include 40GbE connectivity cost-effective wire-speed 10GbE and high-density PoE/PoE+ of up to 480 PoE/PoE+ ports for IP phones cameras and future high-density Internet of Things (IoT) deployments.

Includes advanced hardware feature sets such as MACsec for greater end-point or switch-to-switch security and VXLAN to support flexible connections over a layer 3 everywhere campus network.

No hidden costs with license-free software with Layer 2/3 feature set including IPv6 MPLS functionality and robust QoS.

The HP 7500 Switch Series supports a maximum of 1920 Gb/s switching capacity with a 2.4 Tbps backplane delivering enhanced performance and future expansion capability.

Delivers up to 966 MPPS of packet performance with dual fabrics performing all switching and routing functions in the I/O modules meeting current and future demands of bandwidth-intensive applications.

HP IRF allows up to four 7500 Switch Series chassis to be virtualized into a single switching/routing fabric that improves network performance and resiliency that simplifies deployment and management.

Open application architecture enables fully integrated high-performance application-specific modules such as a 20 Gbps Firewall module providing advanced security.

The HP 7500 Switch Series includes a robust set of security and quality of service features to build a trusted network that meets your ever-changing corporate policies and compliances.

Flexible authentication options include 802.1X MAC and Web Authentication and Endpoint Admission Defense providing you with greater security and policy-driven application authentication.

Advanced distributed denial of service (DDOS) protection such as DHCP Snooping IP Source Guard and ARP Protection and flexible traffic controls such as policy-based routing QoS and ACLs are available to manage end-to-end application priorities.

Included with the 7500 Switch Series are a powerful set of multilevel-access security controls such as varying security management login RADIUS SSH TACACS/TACACS+ to protect and control change management access.

The HP 7500 Switch Series can be seamlessly managed with Intelligent Management Center (IMC) software which provides end-to-end network transparency with consistent network experience through comprehensive configuration compliance and policy management.
