24-Port Gigabit Module for Data Networking

The HPE 24-Port 10/100/1000Base-T MACsec v3 zl2 Module is a network switch module designed for data networking environments. It provides twenty-four RJ-45 ports that support twisted-pair Gigabit Ethernet connectivity. This module suits administrators expanding wired infrastructure with copper links.

Twenty-Four Copper Ports at 1 Gbit/s

Each of the twenty-four ports operates at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbit/s, delivering 1 Gbit/s maximum throughput per connection. The density allows many endpoints to be served from a single module slot. Networks requiring fibre uplinks or higher-speed copper interfaces will need different modules.

MACsec v3 on Twisted-Pair Gigabit Links

MACsec v3 encryption is applied on the 1000Base-T interfaces, securing traffic at line rate across copper cabling. The standard does not extend to faster Ethernet variants or optical ports on this module. Compatibility depends on the host chassis supporting the zl2 form factor.

Questions about this item

Will the 24 RJ-45 ports negotiate 10 Mbps speeds for legacy devices I still use?

Yes, each of the 24 RJ-45 ports supports 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-negotiation, so older 10 Mbps equipment will connect at its native speed.

How can I verify the module is forwarding traffic at 1 Gbit/s on every port after installation?

Check the port LEDs on the front panel; a solid green indicator on a port confirms a 1000 Mbps link and active data passing.

Does the module ship with any transceivers or cables, or must I purchase them separately?

The module provides 24 fixed RJ-45 copper ports, so no transceivers are needed; you only need to supply Cat 5e or better Ethernet patch cables for each connection.
