Detailed Specifications

HPE JL165A

Aruba 6940 32-Port 40GbE QSFP+ Ethernet Switch – AC Front-to-Back Airflow

The HPE JL165A Aruba 6940 32-Port Ethernet Switch is a high-performance, fixed-configuration Layer 3 switch designed for demanding enterprise networks and data center deployments. With 32 QSFP+ ports supporting 40GbE, it offers massive throughput, low latency, and robust scalability in a 1U form factor.

Features

Built to handle today’s data-intensive applications, the Aruba 6940 JL165A provides 32 QSFP+ ports for high-speed uplinks or breakout to multiple 10GbE connections. Designed for scalability and operational flexibility, it supports advanced Layer 2/3 features, dynamic routing protocols, and virtualization-ready services.

Advanced Options

The JL165A also supports IRF (Intelligent Resilient Fabric), enabling multiple switches to operate as one virtual device, simplifying management while enhancing network resilience. Whether deployed at the enterprise core or as part of a spine-leaf architecture, the JL165A ensures uncompromising performance.
