Description
The Aruba J9986A module is a network interface module designed for Aruba modular switches, specifically the Aruba 5400R zl2 Switch Series. Here's an overview of its features and capabilities:
1. Port Configuration: This module provides 24 ports, each supporting 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. These ports are compatible with both Category 5e (Cat5e) and Category 6 (Cat6) Ethernet cables.
2. Power over Ethernet (PoE+): The module supports Power over Ethernet (PoE+) functionality, which enables the switch to provide power to connected devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras over the Ethernet cable. PoE+ delivers higher power levels compared to standard PoE, allowing for the support of more power-hungry devices.
3. Compatibility: The module is designed for use with Aruba modular switches, particularly the Aruba 5400R zl2 Switch Series. It is hot-swappable, meaning it can be installed or replaced without powering down the switch, allowing for minimal disruption to network operations during upgrades or maintenance.
4. Scalability: With 24 ports, the module provides ample connectivity options for expanding network infrastructure. Multiple modules can be installed in compatible switches to accommodate larger network deployments and increased connectivity requirements.
5. Advanced Features: The module supports advanced networking features and protocols, including VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) support, link aggregation (LAG), Quality of Service (QoS) prioritization, and enhanced security features to help optimize network performance and protect against security threats.
Overall, the Aruba J9986A 24p 1000BASE-T PoE+ v3 zl2 Module is a versatile and high-performance networking solution suitable for various enterprise environments, offering reliable connectivity, PoE+ support, and advanced features to meet the demands of modern networks.
