Detailed Specifications
HPE JG510A FlexFabric 5900AF 48G 4XG 2QSFP+ Switch
Overview
The HPE FlexFabric 5900AF, part number JG510A, is a high-density, low-latency Layer 3 switch designed for Top-of-Rack (ToR) deployments in enterprise data centers. It addresses the need for high-performance server connectivity by providing a rich combination of 1GbE, 10GbE, and 40GbE ports, making it an ideal solution for the server access layer or the core of medium-sized enterprise networks. This switch is engineered to handle demanding applications and significant server-to-server traffic loads generated by virtualization. Its architecture delivers a switching capacity of 336 Gbps and a throughput of up to 250 Mpps, ensuring minimal bottlenecks. With a latency of less than 1.5 microseconds for 10GbE, it provides the rapid response times necessary for modern virtualized environments and converged traffic. Offered in a compact 1U rack-mountable form factor, the JG510A is built for scalability and resilience. It supports HPE's Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) technology, which allows multiple switches to be virtualized and managed as a single entity, simplifying network architecture and improving availability. Management is handled via a standard command-line interface (CLI), SNMP, and optional integration with the HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) software for comprehensive network oversight.
