The ProLiant BL e-Class C-GbE (Copper Gigabit Ethernet) Interconnect Switch uses 
10/100/1000 Gigabit Layer 2 switch technology to provide up to a 40-to-1 reduction in the 
number of networking cables required for each ProLiant BL e-Class server blade enclosure. 
Each interconnect switch reduces forty 10Base-T/100Base-TX server networking ports to as 
few as one (up to four) RJ-45 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T uplink ports. 

 

 

The ProLiant BL e-Class C-GbE Interconnect Switch is designed for easy installation and 
high performance in an environment where traffic on the network and the number of users 
increase continually. 

The ProLiant BL e-Class C-GbE Interconnect Switch features include: 

• 

• 
• 
• 

• 

Up to a 40-to-1 reduction in networking cables and connections by: 

—  Converting forty 10/100 Ethernet networking ports to as few as one (up to four) 

Gigabit Ethernet networking ports.  

—  Allowing the use of only one of the four Gigabit Ethernet networking ports to 

dramatically reduce the number of network cables required for a ProLiant BL e-Class 
system.  

—  Allowing use of the remaining Gigabit Ethernet ports to fit the bandwidth 

requirement. 

—  Providing redundant networking paths to each ProLiant BL e-Class server blade 

through redundant switching modules. 

Preconfiguration for immediate use with the ProLiant BL e-Class server blade enclosure 

Industry standard protocols compatible with other widely-used networking components 

Support for a total of 255 IEEE 802.1Q VLANs (including user configureable and/or 
dynamic register), for server grouping and isolation 

A variety of management interfaces
