Use of the USB-C port may require the installation of a standard USB driver. New Windows installs include
the driver by default.
The console can be a PC or workstation running a VT-100 terminal emulator, or a VT-100 terminal.
The Aruba CX mobile app and the Aruba USB Bluetooth adapter enable you to configure your switch from
your mobile device. For information about using the Aruba CX mobile app to configure the switch, see the
Fundamentals Guide
for your switch and software release.
DC Power connectors
(JL817A only)
DC connection is supported for the JL817A through two connectors on the front panel of the switch. The
dual-feed power supply provides primary and secondary DC power (DC-1 and DC-2). The switch is capable
of operating with a single or dual power source. When using both power sources, the switch will draw power
from the DC source with the higher voltage. Each of the power sources serve as redundancy to one another.
The switch has an ORing controller to provide protection against reverse-polarity conditions but does NOT
support summation of power for capacity when combining both power supplies together.
