Aruba Networking Instant On 1930 48-Port Gigabit Managed Switch with 10Gb SFP+

The Aruba JL685A is a 48 port Gigabit managed switch that combines high speed connectivity with straightforward cloud management, making it a practical backbone for small and growing businesses.

With forty eight Gigabit Ethernet ports, you can plug in desktops, VoIP phones, printers, security cameras, or network attached storage without worrying about congestion. Four SFP+ slots accept 10 Gigabit fiber modules, letting you create fast uplinks to servers or aggregation switches as your traffic grows.

An 800 MHz ARM Cortex A9 processor and 512 MB of memory drive a switching fabric that moves up to 176 gigabits each second and forwards 130.95 million packets every second. The result is smooth file sharing, video conferencing, and cloud application performance even during busy periods.

You can set up and monitor the switch from almost anywhere. The Aruba Instant On mobile app walks you through the initial configuration in minutes, the cloud portal gives you a full dashboard from any browser, and the local web interface offers direct access when you are on site.

Security is built in from the start. Create separate VLANs for guests, voice, or IoT devices, enforce user credentials through RADIUS, and rely on automatic protection against denial of service attacks to keep threats at bay.

The appliance keeps noise to a minimum thanks to a design that cools without fans. It draws a maximum of 36.9 watts, and its 1U form factor slides neatly into a standard rack or can be shelf mounted in a wiring closet.

Offices, classrooms, retail stores, and co-working spaces that need reliable wired networking will find that the Aruba JL685A delivers the performance and simplicity required for daily operations.
