Highlights

• 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports and 2 SFP uplinks for flexible connectivity.
• Fanless design ensures zero noise, perfect for quiet workspaces.
• Cloud management via Aruba Instant On app or web portal.
• Advanced Layer 2 features: VLANs, QoS, link aggregation, and security.
• Compact desktop form factor with optional rack-mount kit.

In daily use

Deploying the Aruba Ion 1930 is straightforward: connect devices, power on, and adopt the switch through the Instant On mobile app. From there, you can segment traffic with VLANs, prioritize voice or video with QoS, and enforce security policies using 802.1X and ACLs. The switch runs silently, so it can sit on a desk or shelf without disturbing nearby workers. Its energy-efficient design consumes only 10.1 W at maximum, reducing operational costs.
