HPE FlexFabric 5901AF 48-Port 1GBaseT 4XG 2QSFP+ Switch

SKU: JL864A

The HPE FlexFabric 5900 Switch Series are high density, low latency Top-of-Rack (ToR) switches suited for deployment at the access layer and management network of medium-sized and large enterprise data centers.

To meet the increased demand for virtualization, scalability, and programmability, these switches provide high performance switching with low latency and user friendly OS (Comware v7). Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) helps in simpler, flatter, and agile networks by combining multiple physical switches into a logical device. Network and security features coupled with dual, redundant hot swappable power-supplies provide investment protection, reliability, and availability, and allow advanced chassis power management.

These switches also provide network visibility through multivendor network management with HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC).

Features | Low-latency and Multiple Wire Speed for Demanding Applications in the Datacenter Environment

The HPE FlexFabric 5900 Switch Series provides multiple wire-speed of 10/100/1000BASE-T and 1/10/40G fiber ports for high-performance and flexible deployments.

All ports support full L2/L3 features, IPv4/IPv6 dual stack, OpenFlow, and NETCONF for high scalability and software-defined network (SDN) support. Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) stacking enables uninterrupted L2 switching and L3 forwarding to reduce operational complexity. 

High-Performance Data Center Switching

The HPE FlexFabric 5900 Switch Series delivers 336Gbps switching capacity for some of the most demanding applications.

It supports up to 250Mpps throughput for data intensive environments.

With low latency (under a 1.5s for 10GbE), this switch series delivers increased network throughput. It also includes two 40GbE QSFP+ ports for blazing fast uplinks

It supports Zero Touch Provisioning by removing human errors and automatically setting up network devices, leading to accelerated RoI.

Simplicity and Lower TCO

The HPE FlexFabric 5900 Switch Series simplifies switch management by up to 88% with multi-unit HPE Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF).

Dual, redundant hot swappable power-supplies with reversible airflow (front to back/back to front) reduce power consumption.

It supports centralized configuration, compliance and policy management, monitoring and troubleshooting with HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) to provide a consistent network manageability experience

There are no extra hidden costs with simple one license per switch for all OS features.

All switch ports are active and ready to use without need for activation licenses

Business Agility and Resilience

The HPE FlexFabric 5900 Switch Series delivers IRF < 50 msec convergence time, allowing faster application response times.

It provides In Service Software Update (ISSU) enabling high availability with modular updates accomplished without any downtime.

All switch ports are active and ready to use without need for activation licenses.

Automate tedious tasks with SDN and reclaim wasted resources.

  • Effectively reduces downtime with improved network performance
  • Create your own LAN and connect your PC, laptop, printer and other peripherals with the help of 48 ports
  • Can work as layer 3 routing for scalable network design
  • Management capability allows maximum efficiency and with unrestricted control
  • Up to 10x faster than standard Ethernet server connectivity while providing high-performance uplinks
  • Twisted Pair media support for a dependable and productive connectivity
  • Comes in black color for a sophisticated and dazzling look
