HP ProCurve 3500-24 - 6200 yl Series: Component Specifications (Processor, Memory, Flash, Ports)

HP ProCurve Switch 6200yl-24G-mGBIC (J8992A)
Processor
The CPU processor is a Freescale PowerPC 8540 operating at 667 MHz.
Memory
SDRAM
Synchronous Dynamic RAM is used for the storage of uncompressed executable code and data structures. The
SDRAM consists of a 256 MB DDR-1 DIMM in the base module, expandable up to 1 GB. The DDR-1 interface
is 64 bits running at 166 MHz bus speed (333 MHz data rate).
Flash
The flash consists of a 128 MB CompactFlash, expandable up to 1 GB, and a 4 MB mirror-bit flash. The mirror-
bit flash is used for initial boot code. The CompactFlash is used for non-volatile configuration storage, and it
compresses code storage. The CompactFlash is socketed for future upgrade capability.
The CompactFlash may be programmed in a bulk fashion or one sector at a time. Since all application code
is executed out of SDRAM, the CompactFlash may be programmed while the router is operational. The
CompactFlash is sized such that a backup copy of an older revision of application code may also be stored.
Console port
An RS-232 serial port is supported for local management and configuration. The DB-9 serial port is located
on the front panel of the HP ProCurve Switch 6200yl-24G-mGBIC. To connect to the console, a standard null
modem cable is used that is equivalent to the cable used for other HP ProCurve switches like the HP ProCurve
Switch 5300xl series.
Auxiliary port
The management module includes a USB auxiliary port used for offline data transfer of files without the need
for a network to be set up. System code can be copied to a USB memory stick, and the system can copy this
image from USB, just as you would over the network.
LED status indicators
The front panel of the HP ProCurve Switch 6200yl-24G-mGBIC has the same LED status indicators as the
HP ProCurve Switch 3500 series. Refer to the appendix for information about the LED status indicators.
Additional line interface module
The HP ProCurve Switch 6200yl-24G-mGBIC supports one additional line interface module, the HP ProCurve
Switch yl 10-GbE 2-Port CX4 + 2-Port X2 Module. This module is installed on the back panel of the switch. This
is the same module that is supported by the HP ProCurve Switch 3500 series. Refer to the section covering the
HP ProCurve Switch 3500 series for details about this line interface module.
