Aruba 6100 12-port PoE Switch

The Aruba 6100 is a manageable Layer 2 Ethernet switch with twelve Gigabit PoE ports and two 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplink slots. It suits small offices or edge deployments that need powered device connectivity and fiber uplinks in a compact form factor.

Build integration — 1U rack or wall mounting

The unit fits a single rack unit and can also be wall mounted, leaving space in crowded cabinets. Two SFP+ slots accept fiber or copper transceivers for uplinks, while the twelve RJ-45 ports deliver both data and power, removing the need for separate injectors.

Thermals, noise and power draw

The switch draws 21.90 W at idle with one internal power supply installed. Its 139 W PoE budget supports multiple access points or cameras without external power bricks. Fan noise stays low in typical office ambient temperatures.

Questions about this item

How many PoE devices can the 139 W budget support at once?

The 139 W PoE budget powers all 12 Gigabit Ethernet PoE ports simultaneously, with total consumption at 21.90 W leaving ample headroom for attached devices.

What is the fan noise and heat output when the switch runs continuously?

Power draw is 21.90 W in a 1U wall-mountable chassis, so heat and acoustic output remain low during all-day operation.

Which SFP+ modules are needed for the two 10 Gigabit uplink slots?

The two SFP+ expansion slots accept standard 10GBase-X transceivers for fiber uplinks, while the two fixed Gigabit uplinks use RJ-45 copper.
