HP 2520 Switch Series

Product overview

The HP 2520 switch series is ideally suited for small and medium businesses looking to deploy voice, video, or wireless solutions that require Power over Ethernet (PoE) connectivity. The series consists of four switches: the HP 2520-8-PoE, 2520-24-PoE, 2520-8G-PoE, and 2520-24G-PoE Switches. The four models offer a choice of either Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. All models also include support for dual-personality Gigabit Ethernet ports that can be used for either copper or fiber connectivity. All products are fully managed via SNMP, command-line interface (CLI), and graphical user interface (GUI) and offer a Layer 2 feature set. In addition, the products provide deployment flexibility with compact, quiet, and energy-efficient designs.

Quality of Service (QoS)

Selectable queue configuration — allows you to increase performance and/or traffic reliability by selecting the number of queues that best meet the requirements of your network applications; switch will map 8 priorities to either 2 or 4 queues
Simplified QoS configuration —
- Port-based — prioritize traffic by specifying a port and priority level
- VLAN based — prioritize traffic by specifying a VLAN and priority level
IEEE 802.1p traffic prioritization — honors and sets IEEE 802.1p priority in the VLAN tag
Type of service —
- IP precedence — honors IP precedence bits and allows mapping to a priority queue
- Differentiated Services Code Point values — honors Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) bits and allows mapping to a priority queue
Flow control — helps ensure reliable communications during full-duplex operation
