HPE S4A49A 32-Port Network Switch

Overview

The HPE ANW 8325P 32C FB 6FS DC PSU BDL, model S4A49A, is a 32-port managed network switch designed for high-density surveillance and enterprise environments. It provides 32x 1GbE RJ45 ports for endpoint connectivity and 6x 10GbE SFP+ uplink ports for high-speed backbone connections. This switch supports Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) on its RJ45 ports, simplifying deployment by powering connected devices like IP cameras and access points directly over the network cable, eliminating the need for separate power supplies. Its dual DC power supply configuration offers enhanced reliability for critical infrastructure.

Compatibility

This switch is designed for compatibility with a wide range of network devices, including IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones, and other PoE-enabled endpoints. It supports standard networking protocols and is suitable for integration into existing enterprise network architectures. Specific compatibility extends to devices requiring up to 30W of power per port via 802.3at PoE+.

Installation Notes

The unit requires a standard 19-inch rack for mounting. Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit, as PoE operation generates heat. Dual DC power inputs allow for redundant power sourcing, requiring appropriate DC power feeds and connectors. Configuration is managed via a command-line interface (CLI) or web-based graphical user interface (GUI).
