HPE Aruba 3810M Series – High-performance core switch

Key Features:

• High-Power PoE+ Support: 8 PoE ports deliver both data and power over one cable for IP cameras, APs, phones, and more.
• Flexible Uplinks: One standard Gigabit RJ45 + one combo RJ45/SFP for uplinking to routers or other switches.
• Intelligent PoE Management: Priority and Extend modes enhance performance for critical devices and longer distances.
• Easy to Use: Plug-and-play with no configuration required.

Key Features:

• Enterprise‑Class Switching: High‑performance Gigabit Ethernet ports with line‑rate forwarding for reliable connectivity.
• Layer 2 and Basic Layer 3 Support: Flexible deployment with VLANs, static routing, and optional routing protocols (in some models).
• PoE/PoE+ Support: Power devices such as VoIP phones, wireless access points, and cameras with IEEE 802.3af/at PoE+ standards and high power budgets (up to 740 W).

• Advanced Security: 802.1X network access control, access control lists (ACLs), BPDU Guard, and other Cisco TrustSec capabilities help protect your network.

• Energy Efficiency: Built‑in energy‑saving technologies reduce power consumption and operational costs.

• Management & Visibility: Integrated NetFlow‑Lite and DNS‑AS for traffic visibility and analysis; management via CLI, SNMP, web UI, or Cisco DNA Center.

Key Features:

• VSF (Virtual Stacking Framework): Logical stacking across multiple switches for simplified management and redundancy.

• Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP): Automated initial configuration and remote provisioning.

• Mobile-Ready: Integrated wired access features optimized for mobile user environments.

Key Features:

• Smart Managed with Layer‑2 + static Layer‑3 routing: Includes VLANs, IGMP snooping, STP/RSTP/MSTP, and static routing to route traffic between VLANs without an external router.
• PoE Support (select models): IEEE 802.3af/at (PoE/PoE+) options for powering IP cameras, access points, and VoIP devices; PoE budget varies by model (e.g., up to 130 W on DGS‑1210‑10MP).
• Fiber uplink ports: Combo or dedicated SFP ports for 1 Gbps fiber connectivity to extend networks over longer distances.
• Auto Voice VLAN & Surveillance Mode: Auto‑detects VoIP and ONVIF cameras, placing them in separate VLANs with tailored QoS and simplified management interfaces.
• Advanced L2 features: IGMP snooping/v3, link aggregation (LACP), port mirroring, 802.3x flow control, loopback detection, and more.
• Security Enhancements: ACLs, 802.1X port‑based authentication, Safeguard Engine flood/virus protection, DHCP snooping, ARP spoofing prevention.
