HPE FlexFabric 5930 Switches and Modules - Refurbished, Used, New

Best Selling

The HPE FlexFabric 5930 is a family of 10 and 40 Gigabit data center switches and plug-in modules running HPE Comware 7, used for top-of-rack server access and aggregation. It comes as a fixed 32-port 40GbE switch or as a modular switch that takes interface modules, so one platform can mix 10GbE fiber, 10GBASE-T copper, 40GbE and Fibre Channel ports. It supports IRF stacking, VXLAN, TRILL, SPB and FCoE, with under 1 microsecond latency. NetworkTigers sells 5930 switches and modules refurbished, used and new, and every unit is tested before it ships so it works when it arrives.

Power supplies and fan trays

HPE sells 5930 power supplies and fan trays separately from the switch. Unless a listing names an airflow direction (front-to-back or back-to-front), it is the switch only, without power supplies or fan trays. A listing that names an airflow direction is a configured switch, and the listing states what is installed. We stock the parts to complete the JG726A and JH178A:

Power supplies: JC680A 650W AC (Used | New) or JC681A 650W DC (Used). One is the minimum; two give redundancy.
Fan trays: two matching trays per switch, JG552A for port-side to power-side airflow (Used | New) or JG553A for power-side to port-side airflow (Used | New). The JH179A 4-slot uses its own fan trays.

Which version do I need?

Choose the JG726A for 40 Gigabit aggregation in one rack unit. Choose the JH178A when you want to pick your own ports: add a JH180A for 10GbE fiber servers, a JH182A for 10GBASE-T copper servers, a JH183A for more 40GbE uplinks, or a JH184A when the same switch must also connect 4 or 8 Gb Fibre Channel storage. Choose a MACsec module (JH181A, JH182A) when links must be encrypted.

Frequently asked questions

Does a 5930 come with power supplies and fans?
Not unless the listing names an airflow direction. Otherwise it is the switch only: add one or two JC680A or JC681A power supplies and two matching fan trays, or ask us to quote a complete switch.

Which airflow do I need?
Port-side to power-side (front-to-back) means air enters at the ports; power-side to port-side (back-to-front) is the reverse. Match it to your rack's hot and cold aisles. Both fan trays in a switch must blow the same direction.

Do the modules fit other HPE switches?
Yes. JH180A to JH184A fit the modular FlexFabric 5930 switches and the modular FlexFabric 5940 switches (JH397A 2-slot, JH398A 4-slot).

How many 5930 switches can be stacked?
HPE IRF groups up to nine 5930 switches so they are managed as one. HPE rates the 5930 for hitless software upgrades using ISSU; plan upgrades by HPE's release notes for your software version.

What is the difference between the 5930 and the 5940?
The 5930 is the 10/40 Gigabit generation. The 5940 family adds models with 100GbE QSFP28 uplinks, alongside 40GbE models.
