Detailed Specifications
HPE J9732A 2-Port 10 GbE RJ-45 Module
Overview
The HPE J9732A is a plug-in uplink module designed for deployment in the Aruba 2920 switch family to provide two 10 Gb/s Ethernet ports via standard RJ-45 copper (10GBase-T). Network engineers use it to upgrade access or aggregation switches without full replacement, enabling existing chassis to support higher throughput workloads and future-proof bandwidth demands. The module operates with auto-MDI/MDI-X support and integrates seamlessly with the switch's firmware for unified monitoring and management. It fits into the dedicated module slot of 2920-series switches, making it suitable for enterprise edge, campus distribution or branch-office deployments where 10 Gb uplinks are required.
Key Features
Two full-rate 10 Gb/s RJ-45 copper ports on a single module.
Compatible with Aruba 2920-24G, 2920-48G and PoE+ variants.
Plug-in module form-factor allows live upgrades without replacing switch.
Supports auto-MDI/MDI-X on copper links to simplify cabling.
Ideal for high-speed uplinks, server aggregation and converged access topologies.
