Ports

The HPE JL813A Network Switch is equipped with 24 ports, making it an excellent choice for businesses and organizations that require a high level of connectivity. These ports provide users with the ability to connect multiple devices to the network, allowing for efficient data transfer and communication.

Increased Connectivity Options

With 24 ports, users have the flexibility to connect a wide range of devices to the network. Whether it's computers, printers, servers, or other networking equipment, the JL813A switch can accommodate them all. This allows businesses to easily expand their network and connect more devices as their needs grow.

Reduced Network Congestion

Having more ports means that each device can have its dedicated connection to the network, reducing the likelihood of network congestion. Network congestion occurs when there is heavy traffic on the network, leading to slower data transfer speeds and decreased performance. With 24 ports, the JL813A switch can distribute the network load evenly, ensuring smooth and uninterrupted data flow.

Improved Efficiency and Productivity

The 24 ports on the JL813A switch enable users to set up multiple workstations or departments without compromising network performance. Each device can have its dedicated connection, allowing for faster and more reliable data transfer. This increased efficiency translates into improved productivity for businesses, as employees can work seamlessly without experiencing network slowdowns or interruptions.

Speed

The HPE JL813A Network Switch supports Gigabit Ethernet, a high-speed networking technology that offers numerous benefits for users. With Gigabit Ethernet, businesses can enjoy faster data transfer speeds and improved network performance.

Faster Data Transfer

Gigabit Ethernet provides significantly faster data transfer speeds compared to traditional Fast Ethernet. With a maximum data transfer rate of 1000 megabits per second (Mbps), Gigabit Ethernet is ten times faster than Fast Ethernet, which typically operates at 100 Mbps. This increased speed allows for quicker file transfers, smoother multimedia streaming, and faster access to network resources.

Enhanced Network Performance

By supporting Gigabit Ethernet, the JL813A switch ensures that the network can handle the demands of modern applications and services. Bandwidth-intensive tasks such as video conferencing, large file transfers, and data backups can be completed more efficiently, without causing network bottlenecks or slowdowns. This ultimately leads to improved network performance and a better user experience.

Future-Proofing

As technology continues to advance, the need for faster network speeds will only grow. By investing in a switch that supports Gigabit Ethernet, businesses can future-proof their network infrastructure. This means that as the demand for higher bandwidth increases, the JL813A switch can easily accommodate these requirements without the need for costly upgrades or replacements.

Interface

The HPE JL813A Network Switch features an SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) interface, offering users enhanced flexibility and compatibility with various networking devices.

Modular Design

The SFP interface on the JL813A switch allows users to connect different types of networking modules based on their specific needs. SFP modules are hot-swappable, meaning they can be inserted or removed without powering down the switch. This modular design enables businesses to easily adapt their network infrastructure by adding or upgrading modules as required, without disrupting network operations.

Expanded Connectivity Options

The SFP interface on the JL813A switch supports a wide range of networking modules, including fiber optic transceivers. This allows businesses to extend their network over longer distances using fiber optic cables, which offer superior speed and reliability compared to traditional copper cables. The ability to connect different types of modules provides users with greater flexibility in designing their network topology and meeting specific connectivity requirements.

Interoperability

The SFP interface is a widely adopted standard in the networking industry, ensuring compatibility with a variety of networking devices from different manufacturers. This interoperability allows businesses to choose from a wide range of SFP modules, giving them the freedom to select the most suitable modules based on their budget, performance, and compatibility needs. Whether connecting to switches, routers, or other networking equipment, the JL813A switch's SFP interface ensures seamless integration with existing infrastructure.

Mounting

The HPE JL813A Network Switch offers flexible mounting options, making it suitable for various environments and deployment scenarios.

Desktop Mounting

The JL813A switch can be easily mounted on a desktop or placed on a flat surface using the included mounting brackets. This makes it ideal for small offices or home environments where space may be limited. The compact size and lightweight design of the switch allow for convenient placement and easy access to ports and indicators.

Rack-Mount Option

For businesses that require a more organized and scalable network infrastructure, the JL813A switch can be rack-mounted. It is compatible with standard 19-inch rack cabinets, allowing for easy integration into server rooms or data centers. Rack-mounting the switch not only saves space but also facilitates cable management and provides a centralized location for network equipment.

Flexibility and Scalability

The ability to choose between desktop and rack-mount options gives businesses the flexibility to deploy the JL813A switch according to their specific needs. Whether starting with a small office setup or planning for future expansion, the switch can easily adapt to changing requirements. This scalability ensures that businesses can efficiently manage their network infrastructure without the need for costly modifications or reconfigurations.
