J4908A#ABA HP ProCurve 4100GL 20-Port 1000Base-T 2x SFP Expansion Module

The HP ProCurve 4100GL 20-Ports 1000Base-T Expansion Module is typically deployed in mid-sized enterprise networks and data centers requiring scalable port density without replacing existing switch infrastructure. IT teams managing evolving network traffic benefit from its enhanced Gigabit Ethernet capacity and flexible SFP connectivity to maintain high throughput and adapt to diverse media types.

How It's Used:

• Expanding Gigabit port availability in enterprise wiring closets to accommodate growth in desktop and server connectivity.
• Integrating fiber optic links via SFP slots for connecting remote data center racks or equipment in storage clusters.
• Enhancing network backbone performance in campus environments by increasing switch uplink capacity without downtime.
• Supporting virtualization environments that demand increased network throughput and port density for hypervisor hosts.
• Upgrading existing HP 4100GL switches in SMB networks to extend operational lifespan while addressing bandwidth requirements.

This expansion module enables IT infrastructures to evolve incrementally by delivering additional high-speed ports and flexible media options. It supports operational efficiency and helps maintain network performance as workloads and connectivity needs increase within established environments.
