Switch Overview

Switch Hardware Features

The ProCurve Switch 1800-24G (J9028B)is a multiport switch that can be used

to build high-performance switched workgroup networks. This switch is a

store-and-forward device that offers low latency for high-speed networking.

Switch Ports

The switch has 24 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports and two dual-

personality ports (ports 23 and 24). Because the RJ-45 ports support automatic

MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network

connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs.

Dual-personality ports use either the 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 connector, or a

supported ProCurve mini-GBIC for fiber-optic connections. By default, the RJ-

45 connectors are enabled.

This switch is designed to be used primarily as a high-density wiring closet or

desktop switch. With this switch you can directly connect computers, printers,

and servers to provide dedicated bandwidth to those devices, and you can

build a switched network infrastructure by connecting the switch to hubs,

other switches, or routers. In addition, the switch offers network management

capabilities.

Switch Overview

LEDs

The front panel of the switch provides status LEDs for system monitoring. The

following table details the functions of the various indicators.

LED Mode Select Button and Indicator LEDs

To optimize the amount of information that can be displayed for each of the

switch ports, the ProCurve Switch 1800-24G uses a Mode LED for each port.

The operation of this LED is controlled by the LED Mode Select button on the

switch panel, and the current selection is indicated by the mode indicator

LEDs near the button. Press the button to change from one mode to the next.

System LED State Meaning

Power

(green)

On The switch is receiving power.

Off The switch is NOT receiving power.

LED Mode

Select

(2 green LEDs)

FDx Indicates the port Mode LEDs are lit for ports that are in full-duplex mode.

Speed Indicates the port Mode LEDs are lit for ports that are in 1000 Mbps mode.

* The blinking behavior is an on/off cycle once every 1.6 seconds, approximately.

Port LED State Meaning

Link/Act On The port is enabled and receiving a link indication from the connected device.

Off The port has no active network cable connected, or is not receiving link signal.

Flashing Indicates that there is network activity on the port.

Mode Depending on the mode selected, displays if the port is configured for full-duplex operation or

indicates the operating speed. See “LED Mode Select Button and Indicator LEDs” below for more

information.

Switch Overview

■When the FDx (full duplex) indicator LED is on, the port Mode LEDs turn

on for those ports that are operating at full duplex.

■When the Speed indicator LED is on, the port Mode LEDs turn on for ports

operating at 1000 Mbps. The port Mode LEDs are off for ports operating

at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps.

Switch Features

The features of the ProCurve Switch 1800-24G include:

■24 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports.

■plug-and-play networking—all ports are enabled—just connect the

network cables to active network devices and your switched network is

operational.

■IEEE 802.3ab Auto MDI /MDI-X on all twisted-pair ports, meaning that all

connections can be made using straight-through twisted-pair cables.

Cross-over cables are not required, although they will also work. The pin

operation of each port is automatically adjusted for the attached device:

if the switch detects that a 10/100 Mbps switch or hub is connected to the

port, it configures the port as MDI; if the switch detects that a 10/100 Mbps

end-node device is connected to the port, it configures the port as MDI-X.

■automatic learning of the network addresses in each switch’s 8000-

address forwarding table.

■automatically negotiated full-duplex operation for all 10/100/1000Base-T

RJ-45 ports when connected to other auto-negotiating devices

■the mini-GBIC ports always operate at full duplex. (1800-24G)

Switch Overview

■easy management of the switch through several available interfaces:

• Web browser interface — an easy to use built-in graphical interface

that can be accessed from common Web browsers.

• ProCurve Manager (PCM) — allows network administrators to

discover and map the ProCurve Switch 1800 within their network and

launch the ProCurve Switch 1800's built-in graphical interface from

within PCM to configure the switch.

■support for up to 64 IEEE 802.1Q-compliant VLANs so you can divide the

attached end nodes into logical groupings that fit your business needs.

■support for up to 12 trunks so you to assign physical links to one logical

link (trunk) that functions as a single, higher-speed link providing

dramatically increased bandwidth.

■support for many advanced features to enhance network performance—

for a description, see the Management and Configuration Guide.

■download of new switch software for product bug fixes.
