Instead of attempting to lock customers into proprietary end-to-end solutions, ProCurve Networking by Hewlett Packard has turned to innovation as the means for creating networks that are standards-based and adaptive to change.

“Innovation is key to providing superior manageability of IT resources as well as driving the standardisation, interoperability and comprehensive view required to deliver affordable networks that can adapt to change,” says John McHugh, vice-president and general manager for ProCurve.
