Detailed Specifications
HPE JL728A Aruba CX 6200F 48G Class 4 PoE 4 SFP+Ethernet Switch
Overview
The HPE JL728A is a fixed-port access switch engineered for enterprise branch or campus access layers where you require high-density port counts, full gigabit copper access, plus substantial PoE budget to power wireless access points, security cameras and IoT endpoints. With 48 × 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and 4 × 1/10 Gb SFP+ uplinks, it delivers connectivity and uplink bandwidth in a single 1U chassis. For example: a wiring closet supporting 200+ users, dozens of Wi-Fi 6E access points, and IP video can use this switch to simplify infrastructure. It fits into campus access racks or branch wiring frames and integrates into the broader Aruba CX ecosystem (stacking, telemetry, automation).
Key Features
48 × 1 Gb RJ-45 ports for high-density wired connectivity at the access layer.
4 × 10 Gb SFP+ uplink ports for high-capacity backhaul from access to distribution/core.
176 Gbps switching capacity and up to ~130.9 Mpps forwarding rate for wire-speed performance.
Class 4 PoE support with up to 740 W PoE budget to power wireless access points, cameras and other endpoints.
Stackable access switch supporting up to 8-member stacks (using VSF) to simplify management and scalability.
