20-portars PoE+ MACsec switchmodul HPE J9992A

The HPE J9992A is a 20‑port 10/100/1000BASE‑T PoE+ MACsec switch module with an additional single 40GbE QSFP+ uplink port, designed for the HPE 5400R zl2 Switch Series. It supports copper Ethernet transmission at 10, 100 and 1000 Mbit/s (10BASE‑T, 100BASE‑TX, 1000BASE‑T) and provides Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) on its RJ‑45 ports while enabling MACsec for hardware‑based link security. The module is compact and lightweight, measuring 261.6 x 206.5 x 44.5 mm and weighing 0.87 kg, suitable for modular chassis deployment where secure, high‑density access and a 40GbE uplink are required.

Advantages

This module combines 20 PoE+ gigabit copper ports with MACsec support and a 40GbE QSFP+ uplink, delivering secure access-layer connectivity and a high‑capacity uplink from a single line card. Native support for standard Ethernet speeds simplifies integration into existing networks, and PoE+ supplies power to connected devices directly over copper cabling. The compact dimensions and moderate weight facilitate installation into compatible zl2 chassis while keeping port density high.

Suitable for

• Enterprise access layer requiring secure, powered connectivity
• VoIP phones, wireless access points and IP cameras powered via PoE+
• Environments needing a 40GbE uplink to core or aggregation switches
• Modular HPE 5400R zl2 chassis deployments

How to use

Install the J9992A module into a compatible slot of the HPE 5400R zl2 chassis following the chassis installation procedure. Connect copper Ethernet cables to the RJ‑45 ports for access devices and configure PoE and MACsec policies through the switch operating system or management interface. Use the QSFP+ port for a 40GbE uplink by inserting a compatible QSFP+ transceiver and connecting to the aggregation or core switch.

Recommendations

Ensure the chassis firmware and switch OS support the J9992A module and enable MACsec and PoE+ features as required. Verify power budget and port power settings before connecting multiple high‑power PoE devices to avoid exceeding available PoE capacity.
