Features

High-Density, Advanced, Data Center Switches

The HPE FlexFabric 5940 Switch Series enables customers to scale their server-edge 10/40/100GbE ToR deployments with high-density 48 x 10GbE (SFP or BASE-T) with 6 x 40GbE ports, 48 x 10GbE (SFP or BASE-T) with 6 x 100GbE ports, and 32 x 40GbE ports, delivered in a 1RU design.

The HPE FlexFabric 5940 Switch Series is also available with a 2-slot modular version delivering 2 40GbE ports and a 4-slot modular version with 4 40GbE ports.

High-Performance Data Center Switching

The HPE FlexFabric 5940 Switch Series delivers up to 2.56 Tbps switching capacity for the most demanding data center applications.

It supports up to 1904 MPPS throughput for data-intensive environments.

Low latency, under 1µs for 40GbE, gives your network increased throughput.

VXLAN support for network virtualization and overlay solutions for improved flexibility.

Includes Open vSwitch Database (OVSDB) for dynamic VXLAN tunnel management.

Business Agility and Resilience with Comware 7

The HPE FlexFabric 5940 Switch Series delivers Hewlett Packard Enterprise Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) <50 msec convergence time enabling faster application response time.

The In Service Software Update (ISSU) enables high availability with modular updates accomplished without a reboot or power cycle, in the background.

Simplicity and Lower TCO

HPE FlexFabric 5940 Switch Series simplifies switch management by up to 88% with 9-unit Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF).

No hidden costs with simple one license per switch for all OS features.

All switch ports are active and ready to use without need for activation licenses.
