difference between the new 2510G and 2810 models

[Igor Ybema]

Anyone here that knows the difference in use between the new 2510G and the 2810 (except for the price)?

They both seem to do the same packet switching speed and both have 24 or 48 gig ports. I can't find any difference in the specs also (of great importance).

2810 choice product as per 2510


below plus feature have 2810

Per-port broadcast throttling: selectively configure broadcast control on heavy traffic port uplinks

Layer 4 prioritization: enables prioritization based on TCP/UDP port numbers

sFlow (RFC 3176): wire-speed traffic accounting and monitoring

Optional redundant power supply: provides uninterrupted power (provided by ProCurve 600 RPS/EPS)


Locator LED: allows users to set the locator LED on a specific switch to either turn on, blink, or turn off; simplifies troubleshooting by making it easy to locate a particular switch within a rack of similar switches

Thanks. If that's all, I guess going for the 2510G won't be a bad choice. I'm wondering why HP is putting this new model in the market with such little difference between specs but with almost half the price.

Personally, I like the 2610. Unfortunately there´s no 2910G version of it. Gigabit would have been great on this switch.

Thanks. Nice comparison sheet! I could find that one myself.
