Key Product Info: The Aruba Instant On 1930 switch series features easy plug-and-play deployment, supports energy-efficient Ethernet for lower power consumption, and offers enhanced features for robust operation. It delivers advanced functionalities including customizable VLANs, link aggregation, Spanning Tree Protocols, and IEEE 801.1X access control. The series provides a complete portfolio of choices for small business flexibility, with 8-, 24-, and 48-port models, including options with and without Class 4 PoE (PoE+). The 24- and 48-port models feature four SFP/SFP+ transceiver slots for Gigabit or 10-Gigabit fiber connectivity. The switch can be deployed using two management modes: Instant On cloud-management (via mobile app and/or web portal) or the local web GUI. Integrated security features like IEEE 802.1x and VLANs protect against unauthorized access, while automatic denial-of-service (DoS) monitors and protects against malicious attacks. Management security restricts access to critical configuration commands with multiple privilege levels and password protection. The 8-, 24-, and 48-port configurations with non-PoE and Class 4 PoE models offer deployment flexibility for all small business environments. Class 4 PoE options power devices like IP phones, surveillance cameras, and access points without additional cabling. The 24- and 48-port models include 1G/10G SFP+ ports for reliable fiber connectivity over longer distances. The switch series is covered by a Limited Lifetime Warranty with 24x7 phone support for 90 days and chat support for the entire warranty duration.
The HPE Aruba Instant On 1930 24-Port Gigabit PoE+ Switch is designed for small to medium-sized businesses needing a reliable, secure, and easily managed network solution.
