• The HPE FlexNetwork 5140 HI Switch series uses Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) to support virtualization of up to nine physical switches into one logical device for simpler flatter more agile and resilient networks.
• Supports 10GbE uplinks static and RIP routing PoE+ ACLs IPv6 for improved and cost-effective network performance.
• DRNI enables link aggregation from multiple switches to implement device-level link backup for node redundancy. DRNI also provides access to the aggregate bandwidth and simplifies network topology by virtualizing two physical devices into a logical device.
• iNQA helps in measuring network packet loss performance forward reverse and two-way packet loss including lost number of messages and bytes message loss and byte loss rate.
• Dual redundant hot-swappable power supplies maintain a dynamic and highly available network switch delivering up to 1440 Watts of PoE+ for powered cameras phones and wireless Access Points.

Robust Quality of Service (QoS)

• The HPE FlexNetwork 5140 HI Switch series supports advanced classifier based QoS which groups traffic using multiple match criteria based on Layer 2 and 3 information; it applies QoS policies such as setting priority level and rate limit to selected traffic on a port VLAN or the entire switch.
• Provides extensive traffic prioritization with strict priority (SP) queuing weighted round robin (WRR) and SP+WRR.
• Broadcast control and limitation of broadcast traffic rate can reduce unwanted network traffic and preserve more bandwidth for critical data.
