Description
The HP J8702A ProCurve Switch 5400zl 24-Port 10/100/1000 PoE Module is built to expand the port capacity of HP ProCurve 5400zl modular chassis switches with twenty-four Gigabit Ethernet copper ports. Each port supports 10/100/1000 operation, making the module suitable for a wide range of networked devices in business and enterprise environments. A key feature of the J8702A is Power over Ethernet support, allowing the switch platform to deliver power to compatible devices directly through the Ethernet connection. HP documentation specifically notes that this module can provide PoE power to IEEE 802.3af compliant devices, which makes it useful for IP telephones, wireless access points, and similar powered equipment. The J8702A is a solid option for organizations still running the 5400zl platform and needing additional Gigabit PoE ports for access-layer connectivity. As part of the older 5400zl family, it is generally considered a legacy enterprise networking module today.

Hunter –
Installed this HP J8702A module in our ProCurve 5400zl chassis and it worked exactly as expected. The ports came up properly, PoE worked well with our devices, and it was a good upgrade for adding more Gigabit connectivity to our network. Solid HP module for anyone still running the 5400zl platform.
