The HP ProLiant DL385 G2, the world's largest selling AMD server, delivers on its history of design excellence with enterprise-class uptime and manageability, proven 2-way, dual core AMD Opteron performance, and 2U density for a variety of rack deployments and applications.

As competition grows for customers in the marketplace, enterprises are relying on technology to help them differentiate their business. Many of the applications used to provide services and increase productivity require reliable, secure communications. Network resiliency, security of data, and application-driven performance are the mainstays of a network built to provide services.

Aggregating network traffic from wiring closets and servers provides increased network performance and aids in troubleshooting. By aggregating wiring closet traffic into a hardware-based routing switch, inter-network traffic can be routed at wire-speed, ensuring application response times, required by bandwidth-sensitive applications, are met. Additionally, fewer high-speed router ports are required since high-speed wiring closet links are consolidated before connecting to the WAN router. Troubleshooting is made easier by providing clear distinctions for traffic segmentation.

The Passport 1600 series is a high-performance fixed port Layer 3 solution that provides the resilience, performance, and security required by today's application and competition-driven enterprise networks. Delivering application performance with proven reliability allows businesses to differentiate themselves with tools for everything from customer service to productivity or collaboration. Resiliency delivers maximum availability critical for bandwidth-sensitive and revenue-generating applications. Application performance decreases the chance that data will be dropped when traffic load increases on the switch. Security features provide added protection for switch configuration data, while packet filtering helps secure and segment sensitive traffic or network access.
