HP J9992-61001 20x PoE+ Ports 1000BT MACsec + 1-Port QSFP+ Module

Product Description

The HP J9992-61001 is an advanced network expansion module engineered to enhance the capabilities of HP's enterprise-grade switches. This module significantly increases the port density and functionality of the switch it's installed in, making it ideal for environments requiring extensive connectivity and robust power delivery. The core of its functionality lies in the twenty 1000BT (Gigabit Ethernet) ports, each capable of delivering Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+), which simplifies deployment by providing both data connectivity and electrical power to devices like IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras. Complementing the numerous Gigabit Ethernet ports is a single QSFP+ port. This high-speed interface is designed for demanding network connections, such as uplinks to core switches, connections to servers requiring high bandwidth, or for switch stacking configurations. The QSFP+ port offers a bandwidth of 40Gbps, providing a substantial aggregate throughput that prevents bottlenecks in high-traffic network segments. This makes the module suitable for aggregation layers or even as part of a high-performance access layer. Security is a key consideration with the J9992-61001, as it incorporates MACsec (IEEE 802.1AE) support. MACsec provides hardware-based encryption and authentication for Ethernet traffic, ensuring data integrity and confidentiality between network devices. This feature is crucial for organizations that need to protect sensitive data transmitted over their local area networks. The combination of extensive PoE+ enabled ports, high-speed QSFP+ connectivity, and advanced security features makes this module a versatile and powerful addition to any HP network infrastructure.
