Aruba HPE FlexFabric 5700-40XG 2QSFP+ Managed L3 Switch

The Aruba JG896A is a Layer 3 managed switch that brings 10 and 40 gigabit connectivity to data centers, campus cores, and server rooms that need dependable speed without giving up valuable rack space. It offers forty SFP+ 10G ports for high-bandwidth edge devices or uplinks, plus two QSFP+ 40G ports that simplify aggregation or stacking. A switching capacity of 960 Gbps keeps traffic moving even when links are fully utilized, and the 128,000-entry MAC table lets the network scale without early upgrades.

Network administrators who prefer familiar tools will find comprehensive management through SNMP, Telnet, FTP, NTP, and SNTP, along with a dedicated RJ-45 console port for direct access. Quality of Service controls help prioritize latency-sensitive workloads such as voice, video, or storage replication, so critical applications stay responsive when traffic spikes.

The switch fits in a standard 1U rack slot, making it a natural top-of-rack choice in virtualized server clusters, high-density storage deployments, or any environment that requires plenty of 10G ports in a small footprint. Its stackable design allows growth as requirements change, and enterprise teams can roll out new racks or pods without replacing existing equipment.
