HPE Aruba Networking JL323A 2930M 48-Port Layer 3 Switch

HPE Aruba JL323A 2930M 40G 8 Smart Rate PoE+ 1-Slot Switch

The Aruba JL323A 2930M Smart Rate PoE+ switch delivers enterprise-class performance, scalability, and flexibility in a compact 1U form factor. With 36 Gigabit PoE+ ports, 4 combo 1G/SFP ports, and 8 Smart Rate multi-gig (1/2.5/5/10G) PoE+ ports, it is purpose-built for high-density Wi-Fi 6 and IoT deployments.

This model supports PoE+ budgets up to 1440W (with JL086A/JL087A PSUs), powering demanding devices such as access points, IP phones, and cameras. With a switching capacity of 320 Gbps, forwarding rate of 112 Mpps, and sub-3.4 µs latency, it ensures high-performance networking at scale.

Featuring Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) stacking for up to 8 members, Layer 3 routing (OSPF, RIP, static), and centralized management via Aruba Central, AirWave, and CLI, the JL323A simplifies operations while enhancing security with 802.1X, ACLs, and dynamic segmentation.

Ideal for campus, enterprise, and advanced Wi-Fi environments, the Aruba JL323A is a future-ready switch that combines multi-gig PoE+, robust security, and stackable design into a single, powerful platform.

Key Features:

• 48 x 1GbE Ports: Provides high-speed connectivity for enterprise-level networks, enabling smooth data transmission for various devices.
• Modular Uplink Options: Supports 1GbE or 10GbE uplinks, allowing for network expansion and scalability.
