HPE J9579A 3 m Stacking Cable for Switch Stacks

HPE J9579A - 3 m Stacking Cable for Switch Stacks

Overview

The HPE J9579A is a 3-metre stacking cable made for engineers who need to link multiple HPE Aruba 3800/3810M switches into a unified stack. If you're running a campus or branch deployment and want to treat several switches as one logical unit (for simplified management and uplink redundancy), this cable is the physical link that enables that. It fits directly into the stacking ports of compatible chassis switches to maintain stack bandwidth and low latency.It's suitable for rack-mount environments in wiring rooms or closets where two or more switches sit side-by-side (maximum 3 m apart). When used alongside the proper stacking modules and switch models, you get a clean stack architecture and avoid complex uplink daisy-chains. Compatible with the Aruba 3800 and 3810M series and their stacking modules.

Key Features

• 3 metre (≈ 9.84 ft) cable length for flexible switch placement within the rack or adjacent racks.

• Purpose-built for HPE/Aruba 3800/3810M switches, ensuring physical and electrical compatibility.

• Copper conductor design supporting the required signalling for the stacking ports (no optical conversion needed).

• Black-jacketed cable suited for data-centre or wiring-room installation.

• Standardized stacking link that helps create a single management domain across multiple switches.
