What PoE capabilities does the HPE JL260-61101 provide?

The Aruba 2930F 24G PoE+ 4SFP Switch (JL260-61101) offers 24x 10/100/1000BASE-T ports with IEEE 802.3at PoE+ support and a 370W power budget. This powers up to 24 Class 4 devices like Wi-Fi 6 APs or IP cameras simultaneously, with dynamic power allocation and PoE prioritization for reliable endpoint connectivity in access networks.

What is the switching performance of this model?

It delivers 176 Gbps full-duplex switching capacity and 131.1 Mpps forwarding rate across all ports. Non-blocking architecture ensures wire-speed L2/L3 performance, supporting high-bandwidth east-west traffic in stacked configurations up to 4 units for enterprise access scalability.

How is the JL260-61101 managed and deployed?

Supports zero-touch provisioning via HPE Aruba Networking Central (SaaS), on-premises AirWave, or ClearPass Policy Manager. Virtual stacking simplifies operations as one logical switch, with REST APIs for automation and integration into NetEdit for configuration workflows.

What uplink options are available?

Four fixed SFP+ ports support 1GbE/10GbE transceivers or DACs for flexible uplinks to aggregation/core layers. Independent ports enable redundancy and high availability without shared capacity limitations.

Does it support Layer 3 routing features?

Yes, provides static/dynamic IPv4/IPv6 routing, VRRP, OSPF, with up to 32 IP interfaces. ACLs (up to 2K IPv4, 1K IPv6) and policy-based routing enhance segmentation and traffic engineering for secure, efficient enterprise networks.

What form factor and power options does it have?

1U rack-mountable chassis with internal fixed power supply (370W AC). Dual hot-plug redundant PSUs optional via RPS1600 for high availability. Operating temperature 0-45°C, airflow front-to-back.
