Description

The Aruba Instant On 1940 is a cloud-managed Layer 2+ Gigabit PoE+ switch built for small and midsize businesses that need enterprise-grade performance without the complexity. Delivering 240W of Class 4 PoE across 24 Gigabit RJ45 ports and four 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks, the 1940 is ideal for powering IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras while providing high-speed uplink connectivity. Management is handled entirely through the Aruba Instant On mobile app or web portal — no controller, no licensing fees, and no hidden subscriptions required.

Beyond simple PoE deployment, the 1940 supports advanced Layer 2+ features including VLANs, link aggregation, Spanning Tree, and IPv4 static routing, along with enterprise security capabilities such as IEEE 802.1X, ACLs, RADIUS/TACACS+ authentication, and hardware-rooted trust via TPM 2.0. Always-On PoE and Fast PoE ensure connected devices stay powered during switch reboots, and IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet reduces operational costs.

FAQs

Q: Can I buy the Aruba Instant On 1940 24-Port Switch in Australia?
A: Yes. The Aruba Instant On 1940 (S4A31A#ABG) is available from iptrading.com.au, Australia's B2B IT hardware specialist. The ABG suffix confirms Australian/New Zealand region stock. Our team provides expert pre-sales support and can assist with volume orders.

Q: Does the Instant On 1940 require a subscription or ongoing licensing fees?
A: No. All features — including cloud management via the Aruba Instant On app, Layer 2+ switching, PoE, VLANs, and security capabilities — are included with the hardware purchase. There are no hidden subscription fees.

Q: How many PoE devices can the 1940 24-Port switch power simultaneously?
A: The switch provides a total PoE budget of 240W across 24 PoE+ ports (up to 30W per port per IEEE 802.3at). The number of simultaneously powered devices depends on their individual power draw — for example, up to 24 standard access points or IP phones at typical PoE levels.

Q: Does the Aruba Instant On 1940 support 10GbE uplinks?
A: Yes. The switch includes four combo 1G/10G SFP+ uplink ports, allowing high-speed connectivity to core switches, NAS devices, or server infrastructure — future-proofing your network for increased bandwidth demands.

Q: Is the Instant On 1940 suitable for a business deploying Wi-Fi access points and IP cameras?
A: Absolutely. The 1940's 240W PoE+ budget and 24 Gigabit ports make it an ideal distribution switch for powering Wi-Fi 6 access points, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and other PoE devices in SMB environments. Always-On PoE ensures connected devices remain powered even during switch reboots.

Q: What Layer 3 routing capabilities does the Instant On 1940 support?
A: The 1940 supports IPv4 static routing, enabling basic inter-VLAN routing without requiring a dedicated router for simple network segmentation scenarios. For full dynamic routing protocols, a dedicated Layer 3 core switch would be recommended.
