HP Aruba 8 Port Gigabit & 2 SFP smart managed Switch / 1930 8G 2SFP / JL680A

The Aruba Instant On 1930 JL680A is an advanced, smart-managed 8-port Gigabit Ethernet switch designed to deliver reliable, high-performance connectivity for small businesses, remote offices, and growing networks. Part of the Aruba Instant On 1930 series, this model combines enterprise-grade features with ease of use, cloud management, and silent operation — all within a compact, fanless form factor.

Powerful and Flexible Connectivity

The JL680A provides a total of 10 ports:

• 8 × Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports for high-speed copper connections
• 2 × 1GbE SFP uplink ports for fiber connectivity and extended reach

This port configuration enables seamless integration with existing networks, supports uplinks to core switches or fiber backbone, and allows connectivity for workstations, printers, VoIP phones, access points, and more.

Smart-Managed Layer 2+ Features

While easy to use, the JL680A includes many enterprise-class networking capabilities:

• VLAN support for traffic segmentation
• Link Aggregation (LACP) for redundancy and increased bandwidth
• Static routing for simplified inter-VLAN traffic handling
• QoS (Quality of Service) to prioritize critical applications
• Access Control Lists (ACLs) for added network security
• Spanning Tree Protocols (STP/RSTP/MSTP) to prevent loops and enhance resilience
• IGMP Snooping for optimized multicast traffic

These features give small business networks the performance and control typically reserved for larger enterprise environments.

Simple and Flexible Management

Aruba Instant On makes management intuitive and accessible through:

• The Instant On mobile app
• A web-based cloud portal
• A local web GUI

No technical expertise is needed, and there are no subscription fees or licenses required. Administrators can set up, monitor, and manage the switch remotely — even across multiple sites — from a single dashboard.

Built-In Security

Security is a top priority, and the JL680A includes:

• IEEE 802.1X authentication
• RADIUS support
• Port security and management access controls
• DoS (Denial of Service) protection
• Role-based admin access

These tools help prevent unauthorized access and protect sensitive data across your network.

Silent and Space-Efficient Design

• Fanless design ensures silent operation, perfect for offices, retail spaces, and work-from-home setups.
• Can be rack-mounted (1U) or used as a desktop switch.
• Compact dimensions: Approx. 25.4 cm (W) × 15.95 cm (D) × 4.39 cm (H)
• Low power consumption: ~6.2W (idle), ~11W (max)
