Description

The HPE Networking Instant On 1940 is a smart-managed Layer 2+ Gigabit switch purpose-built for growing SMBs that need multi-gigabit performance and flexible PoE. It delivers 8 HPE SmartRate (SR10) multi-gigabit ports supporting 1G/2.5G/5G/10G speeds alongside 4 Class 6 PoE ports for high-power devices such as Wi-Fi 6/6E access points, all backed by a 120W PoE budget and 2 × SFP+ 10GbE uplinks for fast backbone connectivity. Static routing and intent-based cloud management make it well suited for healthcare, hospitality, retail, and mid-sized office deployments.

FAQs

Q: What speeds do the SmartRate (SR10) ports support?
A: The 8 HPE SmartRate ports are multi-gigabit and auto-negotiate at 1G, 2.5G, 5G, or 10G over standard Cat6A cabling, making them ideal for connecting Wi-Fi 6/6E access points and other bandwidth-hungry devices.

Q: Which PoE class do the 4 PoE ports support, and what is the total budget?
A: The 4 dedicated PoE ports are Class 6 (CL6), capable of delivering up to 60W per port for high-power devices. The total switch PoE budget is 120W shared across those ports.

Q: Does the 1940 require an on-site controller or licence to manage?
A: No. The Instant On 1940 is cloud-managed out of the box via the free Aruba Instant On mobile app or cloud web portal, with no controller hardware or ongoing management licence required.

Q: Does this switch support inter-VLAN routing?
A: Yes. The 1940 operates at Layer 2+ and supports static routing, enabling basic inter-VLAN traffic handling at the network edge without needing a separate router for simple deployments.

Q: Is the S4A36A#ABG suitable for Australian business deployments?
A: Yes. The #ABG suffix indicates the Asia-Pacific/Australian power configuration (100–240 VAC). It is fully supported and can be purchased directly from iptrading.com.au with stock on hand and fast local dispatch.
