HP J8764A Hewlett-Packard HP ProCurve networking / enterprise server hardware Switch / Carrier Ethernet Line Card

The HP J8764A is a ProCurve Switch vl Module, 10/100/1000-T, an expansion module for HP’s ProCurve vl-series modular chassis switches (the 2600-PWR, 3400cl, 5300xl and related families that used the vl module form factor). Fitted into an open chassis bay, it adds a block of copper Gigabit Ethernet ports without requiring a separate switch or additional uplink cabling, letting an existing chassis be expanded to match growing port demand. HP’s vl-series chassis switches of this generation remain deployed across established enterprise networks, and a genuine module such as this is a routine requirement when adding capacity to an existing chassis or replacing a faulty one. Specifiers should confirm the exact host chassis model and available bay type before ordering, as vl modules are not universally interchangeable across every chassis generation. Tech-Star (UK-based, shipped worldwide) stocks HP ProCurve components to support ongoing network maintenance projects. Please contact our sales team for current stock and pricing.
