User Manual
FAQ
How many PoE devices can this switch power?
The switch has a total PoE budget of 740W and 48 PoE+ ports. The exact number of devices depends on the power requirements of each connected device, such as IP phones (typically 7-15W), wireless access points (15-30W), or security cameras (10-20W). With typical deployments, it can power 30-40+ standard PoE devices simultaneously.
What types of SFP modules are compatible with this switch?
The switch supports standard SFP (mini-GBIC) modules, including 1Gbps fiber SFP (e.g., 1000BASE-SX, LX) and copper SFP modules for Gigabit Ethernet over twisted pair. Compatibility with specific modules should be verified with Aruba's compatibility guide, but most industry-standard SFP modules will work.
