HPE JG316A
FlexFabric 5830AF‑48G Managed switch 1 U Switch (48×1 GbE + 4×10 GbE via SFP/SFP+)
The HPE JG316A (5830AF‑48G) is a 1 U rack‑mount fully Managed switch FlexFabric switch offering 48 auto‑MDIX Gigabit Ethernetports, plus four high-speed uplink options via two dual-personality RJ‑45/SFP slots and two dedicated SFP+ 10 GbE ports. Engineered for enterprise-access and data center top-of-rack deployments, it delivers high port density, rich Layer 2/3 feature sets — including IPv4/IPv6 dual stack, routing protocols (BGP, OSPF, RIP), ACLs, QoS, and IRF stacking — while supporting flexible airflow and redundant hot-swappable fans and power supplies. Designed to simplify network architecture via FlexFabric and IRF, this switch is ideal for scalable, resilient campus or branch environments.
Features
Built on Comware-based operating systems, the 5830AF-48G supports a rich set of enterprise protocols including virtual router redundancy (VRRP), Rapid Ring Protection Protocol (RRPP), SPANNING TREE variants (RSTP, MSTP, PVST+), Device Link Detection Protocol (DLDP), endpoint admission defense (EAD), and Equal-Cost Multi-Path routing (ECMP) for redundancy and high availability. Its deep packet buffer (1 GB or more depending on module level) helps avoid congestion spikes in virtualized or multimedia-dense environments.Key hardware specs include 1 GB RAM and 64 MB flash memory. Management options include HTTPS Web GUI, CLI/SSH, SNMP v1/v2c/v3, RMON, Telnet, and management VLAN isolation. sFlow supports scalable, wire-speed monitoring for capacity planning. Dual airflow configurations (front-to-back or back-to-front) and redundant power/fan modules align with data center hot/cold aisle layouts.
Advanced Options
Performance specs: SCALABLE switching throughput at line rate across all ports with hardware-based TCAM ACL forwarding, jumbo frame support (up to 9 KB) on all gigabit and 10 GbE ports. Multicast tables support up to 2,000 IPv4 and 1,000 IPv6 entries; VLAN tables scale to 4,000 entries; ACL capacity of 8,000 ingress and 512 egress per gigabit port.
