Connecting ProCurve Intelligent EDGE Devices

The ProCurve 8100fl Switch Interconnect Fabric provides a highly available,
high performance, forwarding fabric for interconnecting intelligent edge
devices. The ProCurve Switch 8100fl series provides an alternative to
traditional core routing switches by combining low cost and complexity with
high availability, resiliency, and forwarding capacity.
