What PoE capabilities does the HPE JL817-61001 provide?

It offers 8x IEEE 802.3at Class 4 PoE ports at 30W each and 4x IEEE 802.3bt Class 6 PoE ports at 60W each, with a total budget up to 180W below 50°C (derating to 80W at 70°C). Always-on PoE maintains power during firmware upgrades or reboots for zero downtime.

Is the JL817A suitable for industrial substations?

Yes, it complies with IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 standards, featuring high immunity: EFT/burst 4kV (with surge protectors), conducted 10Vrms STP, power frequency magnetic field 1000A/m, and voltage dips Level 3. Ideal for utility grid protection.

What are the environmental tolerances of this switch?

Operates -40°C to +70°C, IP30 rated enclosure. Withstands operational shock 30G/18ms half-sine, non-operational 50G/11ms trapezoidal, and free fall 100mm. Fanless passive cooling for dusty/vibrating environments like rail or factories.

Does it support high-speed uplinks and stacking?

Includes 2x multi-rate SFP+ ports (100M/1G/10G) for wire-speed uplinks. Supports 4-member Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) stacking for simplified management and scalability in distributed deployments.

What management features are available?

Runs programmable AOS-CX OS with Aruba Central cloud management, Dynamic Segmentation for role-based policies, embedded analytics, and zero-touch provisioning. No software licensing required, unifying wired/wireless security.

What form factor and power options does it have?

DIN rail mountable, fanless 1U half-width design. Internal DC power supply (12V/24V/48-55V input), no PSU power sharing. Compact for space-constrained cabinets in rail signaling or edge enclosures.

Product overview

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 4100i JL817A (SKU JL817-61001) is a compact, fanless DIN rail mount Layer 3 switch designed for harsh industrial environments. It features 12x 10/100/1000Base-T ports including 8x IEEE 802.3at Class 4 PoE (30W) and 4x IEEE 802.3bt Class 6 PoE (60W), plus 2x 100M/1G/10G SFP+ uplink ports for high-speed connectivity. With a maximum PoE budget of 180W at <50°C (derating to 80W at 70°C), it powers demanding IoT devices, access points, and sensors. IP30 ruggedized enclosure supports extended temperatures from -40°C to +70°C, IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 compliance for substation automation, and high immunity to EFT/burst (4kV with surge protectors), conducted RF (10Vrms STP), and shock (50G non-operational). Running AOS-CX OS, it offers VSF stacking, always-on PoE, Dynamic Segmentation via Aruba Central, and no software licensing. Ideal for rail signaling, rolling stock, outdoor enterprise extensions, and secure edge networking beyond carpeted areas.

12x 1GbE ports with 8x Class4 30W PoE and 4x Class6 60W PoE.
2x 100/1G/10G SFP+ uplinks for high-speed aggregation.
