Ethernet Switch HP Enterprise 10Gb 2-Port 562SFP

HP Enterprise 10Gb 2-Port 562SFP is a rack-mountable Ethernet switch module designed to provide two 10 Gigabit SFP+ ports for high-speed fiber or direct-attach copper (DAC) connections. The unit is intended for use as an uplink or server aggregation module in data center and virtualization environments, offering low-latency 10Gb connectivity to support bandwidth-intensive applications and simplified network expansion in enterprise and small data center setups. Branded by HP Enterprise and identified by manufacturer part number 727055-B21-RFB and EAN 5704174142652, this compact switch module integrates into rack deployments where short-port, high-speed links are required.

Advantages

The HP Enterprise 562SFP provides two dedicated 10Gb SFP+ interfaces that support fiber optics and DAC connections, enabling flexible cabling options and high-throughput uplinks. Its rack-mountable design makes it suitable for consolidated equipment racks and small data center top-of-rack deployments. The device focuses on delivering low-latency, high-bandwidth links for server aggregation and virtualization hosts, helping maintain application performance in congested environments. As a branded HP Enterprise module with a specific MPN (727055-B21-RFB) and EAN (5704174142652), it is compatible with existing HP Enterprise rack systems and management practices.
