Frequently asked questions

What is the switching capacity and throughput of the HPE R9L64-61001?

The FlexNetwork 5140 48G PoE+ delivers 216 Gbps nonblocking switching fabric with 190.5 million packets per second (Mpps) throughput. This provides wire-speed forwarding across all 48 Gigabit ports and 4 SFP+ uplinks simultaneously, ensuring no performance bottlenecks in high-density deployments.

How does PoE+ support benefit network deployments?

All 48 ports support IEEE 802.3at PoE+, delivering up to 30W per port to power IP phones, wireless access points, IP cameras, and IoT devices. This eliminates the need for separate power infrastructure at each endpoint, reducing installation costs and complexity while simplifying cable management.

What resiliency features does this switch offer for high availability?

The switch includes Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) for virtual device aggregation, Distributed Resilient Network Interconnect (DRNI) for multi-switch link backup with node redundancy, Smart Link for sub-100ms failover, and support for Spanning Tree/PVST+/MSTP/RSTP. Dual redundant power supplies ensure continuous operation.

Can this switch function as a Layer 3 router?

Yes. The FlexNetwork 5140 supports static routing, OSPF v2/v3, RIP, VRRP, and routed ports, enabling it to function as both an access switch and edge router. This reduces the need for separate routing hardware in small data centers and campus networks.

What security features are built into the R9L64-61001?

The switch includes hardware-based MACsec for end-to-end encrypted security, IEEE 802.1X port-based access control, hardware-based wirespeed ACLs with TCAM implementation, and Device Link Detection Protocol (DLDP) to prevent network loops. Intelligent Network Quality Analyzer (iNQA) provides real-time security and performance visibility.

What is the physical form factor and power consumption?

The switch is a 1U rack-mountable device with side-to-back airflow design, fitting standard 19-inch equipment racks. Dual redundant power supplies provide high availability. Exact power consumption specifications are available in the official HPE QuickSpecs documentation.

How does this switch compare to the 5140 24G model?

The 48G model (R9L64-61001) provides double the port density with 48 Gigabit ports versus 24 ports, and higher switching capacity (216 Gbps vs. lower capacity models). Both share Layer 3 routing, IRF, DRNI, and PoE+ features, but the 48G is optimized for higher-density deployments requiring more access ports.
