Introducing the HP ProCurve

Switch 1600M and 2424M

Introducing the HP ProCurve Switch 1600M

and 2424M

The HP ProCurve Switch 1600M and 2424M are multiport switches that can

be used to build high-performance switched workgroup networks. These

switches are store-and-forward devices that offer low latency for high-speed

networking.

Throughout this manual, these switches will be abbreviated as the Switch

1600M and Switch 2424M, or when common features are being described, as

the Switch 1600M and 2424M.

The Switch 1600M and 2424M have 16 and 24 autosensing 10/100Base-T ports

respectively. Both switches have a module slot for installing any of the

supported switch modules. The modules provide expanded network connec-

tivity, and media and network speed flexibility. For the Switch 2424M, the HP

ProCurve Gigabit Stacking Module can be installed allowing up to seven

switches to be stacked and interconnected with a high speed backbone.

With these switches you can build a switched network infrastructure by

connecting them to hubs, other switches, or routers, or you can directly

connect computers, printers, and servers to provide dedicated bandwidth to

those devices.
