Frequently asked questions

What modules are pre-installed in J9823-61001?

Includes J9827A premium management module and J9536A 20-port Gig-T PoE+ v2 zl2 switching module x2 for 40 PoE+ ports total, plus chassis and 4 open expansion slots for additional capacity.

Does this chassis support stacking?

Yes, via optional fabric modules in expansion slots enabling zl2 stacking up to 12 chassis as single logical switch with shared management and hitless failover for high availability.

What power supplies are required?

No PSU included; requires separate HPE zl2-compatible PSUs (e.g., 680W/1400W AC/DC) installed in redundant bays. PoE+ demands high-capacity PSUs for full 44-port loading.

Is Layer 3 routing included?

Premium software on J9827A management module provides full L3 features including OSPF, RIP, BGP, static routing, and PIM without add-on licenses, SDN-ready with OpenFlow.

What is the maximum port density?

Up to 288 Gigabit ports or mixed 10G with zl2 modules across 6 slots, supporting PoE+ on access modules for powering up to 44 endpoints simultaneously.

What rack space does it occupy?

4U height (6.9in) standard 19in width/depth, weighs 28lb empty; compatible with HPE racks and third-party EIA-310-D compliant cabinets with adequate airflow.
