Switch de red HP Enterprise 3810M/2930M 4 puertos MACSEC JL083A-RFB Layer 2 10GbE

HP Enterprise 3810M/2930M 4-Port MACSEC JL083A-RFB Layer 2 10GbE is a compact Layer 2 Ethernet switch designed to provide secure, low-latency 10 Gigabit connectivity for access and distribution in enterprise and data centre environments. The unit offers four 10GbE ports with MACsec capability to enable data-in-transit encryption at the link layer, and it integrates with existing HP Enterprise network architectures for seamless uplink and aggregation roles. The switch targets scenarios where secure, high-throughput links between servers, racks and aggregation switches are required.

Advantages

The switch combines 10GbE performance with built-in MACsec support to protect traffic on point-to-point links without additional encryption appliances. Its Layer 2 feature set allows straightforward deployment in access and distribution layers, minimizing configuration complexity for basic switching, VLAN segmentation and link aggregation. The appliance is compact and suitable for installation in server racks where encrypted uplinks and low latency are important. Compatibility with HP network management tools simplifies monitoring and integration into existing environments.

Suitable for

• Secure uplinks between server racks and aggregation switches
• Access layer connectivity in enterprise and data centre deployments
• Environments requiring link-layer encryption for compliance or data protection
• Low-latency aggregation for 10GbE server connections

Key specifications

• Switch type: Layer 2 Ethernet switch
• Port speed: 10 Gigabit Ethernet on four ports
• MACsec: Hardware-capable link-layer encryption support on available ports
• Form factor: Rack-mountable compact switch suitable for server racks
• Use case focus: Access and distribution roles with uplink/aggregation capabilities

How to use

Install the switch in a standard equipment rack and connect power according to site electrical procedures. Use the management interface or HP network management tools to configure VLANs, link aggregation (LACP) and MACsec policies for the relevant ports. Assign appropriate VLANs and access control parameters to connected servers and upstream aggregation devices. Monitor link status and encryption state through the management interface to verify that MACsec sessions are established and that links operate at 10GbE speeds.

Recommendations

Enable MACsec on links that traverse untrusted or shared infrastructure to ensure traffic confidentiality and integrity. Use link aggregation for increased throughput and redundancy where multiple 10GbE paths are available. Keep firmware updated and follow HP Enterprise guidance for interoperability with other switches and management platforms.
