HPE J9992A Enterprise 20-port 10/100/1000BASE-T v3 zl2 Expansion Module

The HPE J9992A is a v3 zl2 module designed to enhance the connectivity and performance of the HPE Aruba 5400R zl2 Switch Series. This expansion module provides a versatile solution for enterprise campus networks requiring a mix of high-density copper access ports and high-speed fiber uplinks. It addresses the need to connect and power a range of endpoint devices while providing a robust aggregation path back to the network core, solving bottlenecks for bandwidth-intensive applications. At its core, the module delivers 20 ports of 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet with full Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support, ideal for powering devices like VoIP phones, wireless access points, and IP security cameras. A key technical highlight is the inclusion of a 40GbE QSFP+ port, which serves as a high-throughput uplink to eliminate network congestion. Furthermore, integrated MACsec encryption provides standards-based, line-rate security on all RJ-45 ports, ensuring data integrity and confidentiality without impacting performance. Designed for seamless integration, this module fits into any open I/O slot in a 5400R zl2 chassis, offering scalable, pay-as-you-grow network expansion. Its hot-swappable nature ensures that network upgrades and maintenance can be performed without causing significant downtime. Management is unified through the switch chassis's existing command-line interface (CLI) and is compatible with network management platforms like Aruba AirWave and Aruba Central, simplifying administration across the infrastructure.
