HPE OfficeConnect 1820 Switch Series devices are basic, smart-managed, fixed-configuration Gigabit Ethernet Layer 2 switches designed for small businesses looking for key features in an easy-to-administer solution.

The series is part of the OfficeConnect portfolio of Hewlett Packard Enterprise small business networking products.

The series consists of six switches including 8-, 24- and 48-port Gigabit Ethernet switches and 8-, 24-, and 48-port Gigabit PoE+ models each providing non-blocking Gigabit per port performance. Some models include SFP ports for fiber connectivity and the 8-, 24-, and 48-port non PoE+ models are fanless, making them ideal for office deployments. All HPE OfficeConnect 1820 Switches support flexible installation options, including mounting on wall, under table, or on desktop. The 8-port Gigabit Ethernet model can be powered by an upstream Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch for environments where no line power is available.

These Gigabit switches are plug-and-play out of the box, yet network operation can be fine-tuned through features available from a simple Web browser-based GUI, if necessary. Customizable features include VLANs, Rapid Spanning Tree, IGMP Snooping, link aggregation trunking, and DSCP QoS policies. All models include the latest energy-saving capabilities, including Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and idle-port power down.

HPE OfficeConnect 1820 Switch Series includes a Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Features and benefits management

• Simple web management
• Allows for easy management of the switch-even by nontechnical users-through an intuitive Web GUI; supports HTTP and HTTP Secure (HTTPS)
• SNMPv1, v2c
• Enable devices to be discovered and monitored from an SNMP management station
• Port mirroring
• Enables traffic on a port to be simultaneously sent to a network analyzer for monitoring
• Dual flash images
• Provide independent primary and secondary operating system files for backup while upgrading
• Network Time Protocol (NTP)
• Synchronizes timekeeping among distributed time servers and clients; keeps timekeeping consistent among all clock-dependent devices within the network
• Manual network time configuration
• Manually set the date and time on the switch in the absence of an NTP server
• Default DHCP client mode
• Allows the switch to be directly connected to a network, enabling plug-and-play operation; in the absence of a DHCP server on the network, the switch falls back to a default, fixed IP address

• Traffic prioritization
• Provides time-sensitive packets (like VoIP and video) with priority over other traffic based on DSCP or IEEE 802.1p classification; packets are mapped to eight hardware queues for more effective throughput
• Broadcast control
• Allows limiting of broadcast traffic rate to reduce unwanted network broadcast traffic
• IEEE 802.1p/Q
• Delivers data to devices based on the priority and type of traffic; supports IEEE 802.1Q

• Auto-MDI/MDIX
• Automatically adjusts for straight through or crossover cables on all ports
• IEEE 802.3X Flow Control
• Provides a flow throttling mechanism propagated through the network to prevent packet loss at a congested node
