489864-001 HP Brocade 8/12C 8GB 12-Port Full Fabric Network Switch

HP Brocade 8/12C 489864-001

Built for everyday networking where stable, consistent performance matters, the HP Brocade 8/12C (489864-001) is a 12-port switch from HP.

It offers 12 ports, enough to connect workstations, servers, phones, access points and other network devices. A moderate number of ports balances capacity and cost for small teams and branch sites. Keeping firmware up to date, where supported, helps maintain security and stability. Cabled connections avoid the interference and congestion that can affect wireless networks. Labeling patch cables and documenting port assignments makes future moves, adds and changes much faster. Switches like this form the backbone of everyday network communication, linking users to applications, storage and the internet.

It lets you grow the network in steps rather than replacing everything at once. Use the manufacturer part number 489864-001 to make sure you order exactly the configuration you need. A UPS on the network rack keeps connections alive through short power outages. Adequate airflow around the unit helps it run reliably for years. Centralizing wired connections on one switch makes the network easier to understand and maintain. Order the 489864-001 today to add a 12-port switch to your infrastructure.
