Unmanaged Gigabit Switch for Small Business

The HPE Instant On 1430 is an unmanaged Layer 2 switch built for small businesses and home offices that need simple, reliable wired connectivity. It provides sixteen RJ45 ports operating at 10/100/1000 Mbps with zero configuration required. Plug-and-play deployment means the switch is ready to use immediately after powering on.

Four Class 4 PoE Ports with 124 W Budget

Four of the sixteen ports deliver Power over Ethernet with a total power budget of 124 W, compliant with Class 4 PoE specifications. This allows compatible access points, IP phones, and IoT devices to receive both data and power over a single cable. The remaining twelve ports provide standard Gigabit Ethernet connectivity without PoE.

Fan-Less Design with 2.0 Mb Buffer

A fan-less chassis ensures silent operation suitable for open office spaces, while Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) reduces idle power draw to 5 W. The 2.0 Mb packet buffer handles traffic bursts across the sixteen Gigabit ports. Maximum power consumption reaches 147 W when the PoE budget is fully utilised.

Questions about this item

How does the 124W PoE budget actually power devices like access points and IP phones in daily use?

The four PoE ports share a 124W Class 4 budget so you can connect multiple powered devices simultaneously without a separate injector.

What does the unmanaged Gigabit RJ45 interface mean for real-world throughput?

Each of the 16 RJ45 ports auto-negotiates at 10/100/1000Mbps with no configuration, delivering wire-speed Layer 2 switching for every connected device.

What clearance and mounting space does the 26.0 x 27.5 x 4.4 cm fan-less chassis need?

The compact 1.73-inch high metal case fits on a desktop, shelf or wall bracket and requires only passive airflow since it has no internal fan.
