HP ProLiant BL p-Class C-GbE2 Interconnect Kit

The HP ProLiant BL p-Class C-GbE2 Interconnect Kit contains two HP ProLiant BL p-Class
GbE2 Interconnect Switches and two QuadT2 Interconnect Modules.
The HP ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switches and QuadT2 Interconnect Modules
use 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T Gigabit Layer 2 switching technology to provide
between 32-to-1 (blocking) to 32-to-12 (blocking) reduction in the number of networking
cables per BL p-Class server blade enclosure.
Each HP ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switch and QuadT2 Interconnect Module
reduces sixteen 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T server networking ports to one to four
RJ-45 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T ports (located on the removable interconnect
module) and one to two RJ-45 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T ports (located on the front
of the HP ProLiant BL p-Class GbE2 Interconnect Switch).
