HPE JL689A FlexFabric 5710 24XGT 2QSFP28 Gigabit Managed Ethernet Switch

Detailed Specifications

The HPE JL689A is a high-performance, low-latency Layer 3 managed switch designed for top-of-rack (ToR) deployments in modern data centers. It is engineered to address the demanding connectivity needs of web, cloud, and densely virtualized environments, providing a robust aggregation layer for servers and direct-attached IP storage. This switch solves the critical need for high-speed server access and scalable uplink capacity in small to mid-sized data center operations. This FlexFabric 5710 series switch provides substantial bandwidth with a non-blocking architecture. Its low-latency performance, under 1.5 microseconds for 10GbE traffic, ensures rapid response times for mission-critical applications and improves overall throughput by minimizing packet loss. This technical capability translates directly into accelerated application performance and a more efficient flow of data between servers, storage, and the core network. Ideal for rack-level server aggregation, the switch's 1U form factor allows for seamless integration into standard data center cabinets. Management is streamlined through a comprehensive set of tools, including HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) for a unified network view, a full command-line interface (CLI) for granular control, and standard protocols like SNMP. This flexibility ensures the device can be easily integrated into existing network management frameworks.
