HPE Aruba JL558A 2930F 48G PoE+ 4SFP+ Switch
Overview
The HPE Aruba 2930F 48G PoE+ 4SFP+ is a high-performance Layer 3 access switch engineered for the enterprise edge, SMBs, and branch office environments. It is designed to create digital workplaces optimized for mobile users and IoT devices by providing a secure, reliable, and scalable foundation for wired access. This switch addresses the need for high-density PoE+ connectivity and high-speed uplinks, delivering power and data to devices like wireless access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones over a single Ethernet cable. At its core, the JL558A is powered by a robust ProVision ASIC, which provides low latency, increased packet buffering, and adaptive power consumption for a superior network experience. It offers a non-blocking switching capacity of 176 Gbps and a throughput of up to 112 Mpps, ensuring smooth traffic flow even under heavy loads. The Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) technology is a key feature, allowing for the stacking of up to eight switches into a single logical unit, which simplifies management and enhances network resiliency. Designed for operational simplicity, this switch can be deployed and managed using advanced tools like Aruba ClearPass Policy Manager, Aruba AirWave, and the cloud-based Aruba Central platform. This enables Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP), simplifying network rollouts across distributed locations. Housed in a 1U rack-mountable form factor, it integrates seamlessly into standard network racks, providing 48 Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ ports and four 10GbE SFP+ uplink ports for flexible, high-speed connectivity to the network core.
