Another major negative with the HP gear for us is that their switches only support SFP/SFP+ modules manufactured by HP, so those SFP+ Twin-AX cables that came with your Dell/IBM Blade chassis will be useless to connect to your HP Switches, to add insult HP often sell their own modules at 3x the price of an equivalent module from say Extreme or Juniper.
