Info on HP ProCurve Switch 3400CL-48G

[Alex]

I've got an opportunity to get these at a good price but I'd like to hear from someone who has actually used these switches. Can anyone give me some of their likes/dislikes?

TIA!

I haven't used any of the newer gigabit Procurve switches, but my experience with the line has always been positive. I've worked with the 10/100 varieties (26xx models) in wide deployment in data center/hosting environments and they have always seemed solid. The CLI isn't too bad to work with, either. Based on price/performance and comparing specs the 3400cl seems as if it would perform similar to competing products for about half the price in some instances.

Appreciate you solid review Sago, thanks! I was planning on getting some of these for myself but ended up reselling to a friend who had a immediate need for them.
