Throughout this manual, this switch will be abbreviated as the Switch 6400cl- 6XG or Switch 6410cl-6XG and collectively as the Series 6400cl Switch devices.
The Switch 6400cl-6XG and Switch 6410cl-6XG have respectively, six fixed copper or six flexible media X2 transceiver slots, and one slot is provided in the back of the device to support a two port 10-Gigabit per second Ethernet (10-GbE) module to provide box connectivity to other switch boxes, to a 10-GbE concentrator or to any Ethernet compatible uplink.
The Series 6400cl Switch devices can be connected to a ProCurve 600 Redundant and External Power supply (RPS/EPS (J8168A)) and receive full redundant power if the internal power supply in the switch fails. The RPS/EPS unit will immediately provide all the power necessary to keep the switch running.
