24 or 48 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T ports.
All these ports have the "HP Auto MDIX" feature, which means you can
use either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair cables to connect
any network devices to the switch.
On the Series 3500yl devices there are four dual-personality ports. Use
either the 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 connector, or install a supported
ProCurve mini-GBIC for fiber-optic connections.
The RJ-45 connectors support the IEEE Auto MDI/MDI-X feature, which
means you can use either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair
cables to connect any network device to the switch.
Dual-Personality Port Operation. By default, the RJ-45 connectors are
enabled. If a mini-GBIC is installed in a slot, it is enabled and the associ-
ated RJ-45 connector is disabled and cannot be used. If the mini-GBIC is
removed, the associated RJ-45 port is automatically re-enabled.
The RJ-45 connector also supplies PoE power until a mini-GBIC is
installed. The PoE power is turned off when a mini-GBIC is plugged in.
One, 10 gigabit expansion slot. These switches provide a single slot in the
back of the device that can accept a 4 x 10 gigabit transceiver module. The
module provides four 10 gigabit ports. The module provides either copper
or fiber optic media that conforms to the gigabit Ethernet standard as well
as dual 10 gigabit copper or uplink ports.
