JL355A HP Aruba 2540 48G 4SFP+ 48-Port 48 x 10/100/1000 + 4 x SFP+ 1U Rack-Mountable Network Switch

General Information

The JL355A HP Aruba 2540 48G 4SFP+ switch is a flexible and scalable network switch built for corporate and data center networking needs. Its mix of Gigabit Ethernet and SFP+ ports, administration capabilities, security, and energy economy make it an important addition to network infrastructure for enterprises that want reliable and flexible network access. Here’s a brief overview of the characteristics and features of HPE Aruba JL355A:

Port Configuration:

The JL355A HPE Aruba 2540 switch has 48 ports in total. These ports are 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet (1 Gbps), allowing them to connect a wide range of devices such as PCs, printers, and other networking equipment. It also has four SFP+ (Small Form-Factor Pluggable Plus) ports for higher-speed connections such as uplinking to other switches or connecting to fiber-optic networks.

Rack Mountable:

This network switch is meant to be rack-mounted in a typical 1U rack, which is a common form factor for networking equipment. Rack-mounted switches are commonly utilized to conserve space and increase organization in data centers and network closets.

Performance:

The switchs Gigabit Ethernet ports provide solid performance. It can handle large data throughput effectively and can be utilized in settings with heavy network traffic.

Layer 2+ and Layer 3 Lite switching:

The Aruba 2540 series supports Layer 2+ switching, which contains advanced capabilities like VLAN support, link aggregation, and Spanning Tree Protocol. It also has Layer 3 Lite capabilities, which means it can perform simple routing activities, making it appropriate for network segmentation and VLAN routing.

Management:

The switch has several administration and configuration options. It has a web-based graphical user interface (GUI) for management and supports industry-standard management protocols like SNMP for interaction with network management systems.

Security:

JL355A incorporates security features such as Access management Lists (ACLs) and port security to improve network security and management.

Quality of Service (QoS):

QoS capabilities are provided to prioritize network traffic, ensuring that key applications receive the bandwidth and low-latency treatment that they require.

Energy-Efficient:

The switch is energy-efficient, with features such as Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and the flexibility to schedule electricity to specific ports to conserve energy.

Condition: Refurbished
