The next generation in switching technology. The Cisco Catalyst Blade 3120X Switch for HP is specifically designed to meet the rigors of the blade server based application infrastructure and provides HP BladeSystem customers with the ability to stack up to nine switches into a single virtual Switch. By emulating a redundant top-of-rack switch, HP BladeSystem c-Class users now have an integrated switching solution from Cisco Systems that optimizes uplinks per rack, reduces the number of switches managed and decreases network complexity.
