HPE R8R46-61001
Aruba Instant On 1430 Series 8‑Port Gigabit Class 4 PoE Ethernet Switch
The HPE R8R46‑61001, part of the Aruba Instant On 1430 Series, is an easy-to-use unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet switch featuring eight RJ‑45 ports with 10/100/1000BASE‑T PoE (Class 4). With plug-and-play operation and no setup required, it’s ideal for small businesses, branch offices, remote locations, or home office environments. Each port delivers up to 30 W of power, with a shared power budget of 64 W. The fan‑less design ensures silent operation—making it suitable for workspace or open-plan deployments. It’s compatible with PoE‑powered devices such as access points, VoIP phones, surveillance cameras, or IoT sensors, offering reliable wired connectivity with built-in power.
Features
This switch is part of the Instant On 1430 family—a series of layer‑2 unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet switches tailored for simplicity and performance. The R8R46‑61001 model delivers full Gigabit throughput across all eight copper ports and offers up to 11.90 Mpps forwarding and 16 Gbps switching capacity. Class 4 PoE support allows each port to power devices requiring up to 30 W, within a total 64 W budget. It’s powered via an external adapter (up to ~90 W input power), supporting flexible deployments where integrated PoE midspan isn’t available. Energy‑Efficient Ethernet (EEE) support reduces power consumption during idle periods. Despite its unmanaged nature, it supports QoS for prioritizing voice/video traffic, jumbo frames, flow control, and Auto MDI/MDI‑X. The compact, table‑top or rack‑mountable form factor keeps deployment flexible in tight server racks or wall-mounted installations.
Advanced Options
Built for consistent performance and minimal setup, the R8R46‑61001 switch offers enterprise-level features in a simple unmanaged package. Its fan-less thermal design and external power supply keep internal heat low and reduce noise—ideal for quiet office environments. Power-over-Ethernet Class 4 ensures stable power delivery to connected devices like Aruba access points or VoIP phones. With support for Energy Efficient Ethernet (802.3az),
