HPE FlexFabric 5930
Switch Series

Data sheet

Product overview

The HPE FlexFabric 5930 Switch Series is a family of high performance and ultra-low-latency
10GbE and 40GbE top-of-rack (ToR) data center switches. The switch series is part of the
Hewlett Packard Enterprise FlexFabric data center solution, which is a cornerstone of the
FlexNetwork architecture.

The FlexFabric 5930 Switch Series is ideally suited for deployment at the aggregation or
server access layer of large enterprise data centers, or at the core layer of medium-sized
enterprises.

With the increase pace of deploying virtualized applications, adopting software-defined
networking, and the server-to-server traic, many data centers now require spine and ToR
switch innovations that will meet their requirements. The HPE FlexFabric 5930 is optimized to
meet the increasing requirements for higher-performance server connectivity, convergence of
Ethernet and storage traic, the capability to handle virtual environments, and ultra-low-latency.

A summary of the highlights of the FlexFabric 5930 Switch Series:

• VXLAN VTEP support for virtualized environments

• OpenFlow support for investment protection and SDN environments

• High-density 10GbE and 40GbE for spine-and–leaf deployments

• Unify management of virtual and physical network with VEPA and IMC

• Data center convergence and resiliency with DCB, FC/FCoE, IRF, and TRILL

MAC address, destination MAC address, source IP (IPv4/IPv6) address, destination IP (IPv4/
IPv6) address, port, protocol, and VLAN

Data center optimized

• Flexible high port density

The HPE FlexFabric 5930 Switch Series enables scaling of the server edge with 10GbE and
40GbE spine and ToR deployments to new heights with a high-density 32-port fixed port
switch in a 1RU design, a 2 Slot Modular design with Two 40GbE QSFP+ ports and a 4 Slot
Design. Support for 10GbE SFP+, 10GBASE-T, Converged Port 1/10GbE or 4/8Gbps Fibre
Channel, and 40GbE ports

• High-performance switching

Cut-through and nonblocking architecture delivers low latency (1 microsecond for 10GbE)
for very demanding enterprise applications; the switch delivers high-performance switching

• Higher scalability

The Hewlett Packard Enterprise Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) technology simplifies
the architecture of server access networks; up to nine 5930 switches can be combined
to deliver unmatched scalability of virtualized access layer switches and flatter two-tier
networks using IRF, which reduces cost and complexity

• Advanced modular operating system

Comware v7 software’s modular design and multiple processes bring native high stability,
independent process monitoring, and restart; the OS also allows individual software modules
to be upgraded for higher availability and supports enhanced serviceability functions such as
hitless software upgrades with single-chassis ISSU
