Product Overview
The HPE Aruba JW813A 2530-24G-PoE+ Switch is a fully managed Layer 2 network switch designed to deliver reliable and secure connectivity for enterprise edge, branch offices, and SMB networks. Moreover, it integrates power efficiency, scalability, and enterprise-grade features into a compact 1U form factor, making it ideal for converged networks where performance and reliability matter.
Product Features (In Full Detail)
1. Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+)
The switch delivers 370W of PoE+ power across 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports. Consequently, it can power devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras directly through the network cable, eliminating the need for additional power supplies.
2. Layer 2 Networking Capabilities
It supports essential Layer 2 features such as VLANs, Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Link Aggregation (LACP), and IGMP snooping. As a result, network administrators gain more control over traffic flow, topology, and bandwidth optimization.
3. Advanced Security
The JW813A enforces secure access via 802.1X authentication, MAC authentication, and traffic filtering using ACLs. Additionally, it supports DHCP snooping and dynamic ARP protection, which protect against IP spoofing and network threats.
4. Energy Efficient
Aruba integrates Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) into the 2530-24G-PoE+, allowing it to reduce power consumption during low traffic periods. Thus, it helps businesses save on energy costs without sacrificing performance.
5. Flexible Management Options
You can manage the switch via Web GUI, CLI, SNMP, and Aruba AirWave. Furthermore, it supports zero-touch provisioning, making deployments quicker and easier in distributed environments.
6. Quiet and Compact Design
Its fanless design ensures silent operation, ideal for open-office or classroom environments. In addition, its compact 1U form fits easily in rackmount and desktop deployments.
