HP A5500-24g-Poe JD378A

The HP JD378A is a 24-port managed Layer 4 Gigabit Ethernet PoE switch from the HPE FlexNetwork 5000 Series, making it a dependable option for enterprise access layers, branch offices and wiring closets that connect hundreds of users and devices. The series is designed for enterprise access and aggregation switching.

Its port layout is 24 x 10/100/1000, 4 x Shared SFP, giving you a clear, flexible mix of connections. Fiber-ready transceiver slots extend your network across floors, buildings or campuses with the optic of your choice. PoE support removes the need for separate power supplies for VoIP handsets, Wi-Fi access points and security cameras, cutting cabling cost and clutter.

Full management capabilities let your IT team tune performance, enforce policies and monitor every port. Its Layer 4 feature set supports inter-VLAN routing, so traffic between departments does not have to travel to a separate router. Management is based on Comware, a platform familiar to network engineers. Reliable switching underpins every connected service, from email and file sharing to voice and video.

Physically, it uses a rack-mountable format for a clean, organized installation. Standardizing on one switching platform makes configuration templates, training and spares easier to manage. Part number JD378A identifies this exact hardware configuration for straightforward purchasing and asset tracking. It lets you grow the network in steps rather than replacing everything at once. Choose the HP JD378A when you need a 24-port managed Gigabit Ethernet PoE switch you can rely on.
