HPE JG236-61001 5120-24G-PoE+ EI Network Switches with 2 Interface Slots

Interface Slots

The HPE JG236-61001 Network Switch is equipped with 2 interface slots, making it a versatile and flexible networking solution for businesses of all sizes. These interface slots provide users with the ability to expand and customize their network infrastructure according to their specific needs and requirements.

Increased Scalability

One of the key benefits of having 2 interface slots is the increased scalability it offers. With these slots, users can easily add additional modules or cards to their network switch, allowing them to accommodate more devices or expand their network capacity as their business grows. This scalability ensures that the switch can keep up with the increasing demands of a growing network without the need for a complete overhaul or replacement.

Enhanced Flexibility

The 2 interface slots also provide enhanced flexibility in terms of connectivity options. Users can choose from a wide range of modules or cards that are compatible with the switch to meet their specific connectivity needs. Whether it's adding more Ethernet ports, fiber optic connections, or other specialized interfaces, the interface slots allow users to easily tailor their network switch to support different types of devices and applications.

Support for Different Network Standards

The interface slots on the HPE JG236-61001 Network Switch also enable support for different network standards. Users can leverage these slots to integrate various modules that comply with different networking protocols such as Gigabit Ethernet, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, or even higher-speed technologies like 40 Gigabit Ethernet. This flexibility ensures that the switch can adapt to evolving network standards and technologies, future-proofing the network infrastructure to some extent.

Modular Design for Easy Maintenance

With 2 interface slots, the HPE JG236-61001 Network Switch features a modular design that simplifies maintenance and troubleshooting processes. If a module or card fails, it can be easily replaced without affecting the overall functionality of the switch. This modularity reduces downtime and ensures that businesses can quickly restore network connectivity and minimize disruptions to their operations.

Cost-Effective Upgrades

The presence of 2 interface slots also allows for cost-effective upgrades. Instead of replacing the entire switch to accommodate new networking requirements, users can simply add or upgrade modules in the interface slots, saving both time and money. This cost-effective upgrade path makes the HPE JG236-61001 Network Switch a long-term investment that can easily adapt to changing business needs.

Power Over Ethernet

The HPE JG236-61001 Network Switch features Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities, providing users with added convenience and flexibility in powering their network devices.

Simplified Deployment

With PoE, users no longer need to rely on separate power adapters or electrical outlets for each network device. The switch can deliver power to devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras through the Ethernet cables themselves. This simplifies deployment and eliminates the need for additional power infrastructure, reducing clutter and making installation much easier.

Flexibility in Device Placement

The PoE feature also offers flexibility in device placement. Since network devices can receive power through the Ethernet cables, they are not limited by proximity to power outlets. This means that devices can be placed in more convenient locations without compromising their connectivity or functionality. It also allows for easier expansion or relocation of devices within the network without the need for additional electrical work.

Cost Savings

By utilizing PoE, businesses can realize cost savings in multiple ways. Firstly, the elimination of separate power adapters reduces the need for purchasing and maintaining additional power supplies. This can result in significant cost savings, especially in larger network deployments. Additionally, the ability to place devices in more convenient locations can also reduce cabling costs and simplify network infrastructure.

Centralized Power Management

Another benefit of PoE is the centralized power management it offers. Network administrators can monitor and control the power usage of PoE devices from a central management interface. This allows for better energy management and helps identify power-hungry devices or potential issues with power consumption. By optimizing power allocation, businesses can further reduce energy costs and improve overall efficiency.

Future-Proofing

With the increasing popularity of PoE devices in various industries, having PoE capabilities on the HPE JG236-61001 Network Switch ensures future-proofing of the network infrastructure. As more devices support PoE, businesses can easily integrate them into their network without the need for additional power infrastructure upgrades. This scalability and compatibility make the switch a reliable choice for long-term network planning.

Number Of Ports

The HPE JG236-61001 Network Switch offers 24 ports, providing users with ample connectivity options for their network devices.

Expanded Device Connectivity

With 24 ports, users can connect a wide range of devices to the network switch. This includes computers, servers, printers, IP phones, wireless access points, surveillance cameras, and other network-enabled devices. The increased number of ports ensures that businesses have enough capacity to accommodate their current devices while leaving room for future expansion.

Efficient Network Traffic Distribution

The 24 ports on the switch allow for efficient distribution of network traffic. Users can connect multiple devices to different ports, ensuring that network resources are effectively utilized and not overwhelmed by a single device or application. This helps maintain network performance and prevents bottlenecks, especially in high-traffic environments.

Support for VLANs

The HPE JG236-61001 Network Switch supports the creation of Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) using its 24 ports. VLANs enable network segmentation, which can improve security, manageability, and overall network performance. With multiple ports available, users can allocate specific ports to different VLANs, allowing for better control and isolation of network traffic.

Aggregation and Link Redundancy

The 24 ports also enable aggregation and link redundancy configurations. By combining multiple ports together, users can increase bandwidth and create link aggregation groups (LAGs). This enhances network performance and provides redundancy in case of link failure. The ability to configure link redundancy ensures that businesses can maintain uninterrupted connectivity and minimize downtime.

Growth Potential

The 24 ports on the HPE JG236-61001 Network Switch offer growth potential for businesses. As the network expands and more devices need to be connected, having additional ports readily available eliminates the need for investing in additional switches or complicated network topologies. This scalability ensures that the switch can accommodate future growth without requiring significant changes to the network infrastructure.
