HP ProCurves do their job flawlessly. First intro to the HP enterprise line was in 2004-2005. Those are still running at an old job and I've heard no complaints. I was having network issues at work, so my boss said to split the VOIP phones away. I decided to just move them away from daisy-chained Dell Powerconnect 6248s and onto a single HP Procurve 5412zl. HP firmware is really available and they are proactive about fixing bugs. My two issues with the Dells (on 3.3.3 fw) is that my two Linux gateways would kernel panic on PAUSE frames. Again I run some old, solid HP Proliant DL360 G5s, with onboard Broadcom NICS. Before then I used a Supermicro with Intel NICS and before that I used an old ZT computers server with Intel NICs. The problem PAUSE frames extended that far back, over numerous Linux installs with different kernels. My coworker and I were looking into the problem, and he was driving the troubleshooting and observing dmesg while the Proliant was unable to get on the network. I moved the ethernet cable over to an HP Procurve and the server came back online with no problems. Both the Procurve and the Poweconnect use Broadcom's IC on the motherboard, but I trust HP a whole lot more with having better integrated firmware. I can pretty much do anything on the phone LAN and nothing adverse happens. I even added loop protect and put some of the most import workstations on it. When and if the Powerconnect network croaks, I can tether the sales and support staff to their phones. Read full review

For anyone wondering what switch to deploy in a small business: this is it. The per-port price is hard to beat, the feature mix is state-of-the-art for an L3 switch, and it's a very solid and stable platform. I was considering a purchase of a 1U HPE switch, and settled on the 5406zl chassis with two PoE power supplies and two 24-port PoE modules. This chassis also supports service modules like wireless AP manager and i7 server blade (!!). There is a very healthy mix of used parts available for good price, as well as full support by HP, including the Aruba v3 chassis - still backwards-compatible with v1 modules. You can get 48 ports on a used chassis for the price of a junky NETGEAR PoE switch. It's a no-brainer really to choose HPE here.

This unit came with all necessary components. I was well packaged and arrived in a short time form order. Best part? 1/5 the cost quoted by my IT department. Score one for us.
