Expanding Your Network
The ProCurve 8100fl Switch Series can be integrated into an existing
traditional network to supplement existing bandwidth, while providing a clear
migration path to an optimized ProCurve Adaptive EDGE Architecture. The
illustration below shows a ProCurve 8100fl switch connected to a traditional
core network using a 10 GbE link for maximum throughput.
