2.1 HP ProCurve 2650 Overview

The HP ProCurve 2650 has 48 dual-speed ports that are spread across the front panel. To the
right is a pair of fixed triple-speed copper gigabit ports, and below these are two mini-GBIC slots
that accept fiber-optic cables. These are referred to as dual-personality ports because you can
use either the copper port or the corresponding fiber-optic port, however, only two can be in
action at any one time. By default, the RJ-45 connectors are enabled. If a mini-GBIC is installed
in a slot, it is enabled and the associated RJ-45 connector is disabled. If the mini-GBIC is removed,
the associated RJ-45 port is automatically re-enabled.
