Product overview
JQ074AR is an HPE 5900 48x SFP28 25GBase-X 8x QSFP28 Switch. Airflow direction has to match the rest of the row, and a front-to-back unit dropped into a back-to-front aisle will run hot from day one. Tell us the rack layout and we will confirm the variant.
Send the quantity you need and we will come back within 48 business hours with availability confirmed, not estimated.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
The order is placed against JQ074AR, not against a description of it, so there is no room for a substitution you did not agree to.
Airflow variant confirmed
We check the airflow direction against your aisle before shipping, because the wrong variant runs hot for the life of the switch.
Answered by a human
A quote comes back with the reasoning attached, including the cases where we think you should buy something else.
Questions buyers ask about this part
- Is JQ074AR genuine and is the warranty intact?
- Yes — new and sealed, with the HPE warranty and the firmware update path intact. We do not sell refurbished stock as new, and we do not source grey-market units.
- Will JQ074AR work in my server?
- Tell us what it is aggregating and what optics you already hold. We confirm the port mix, the uplink capacity and the airflow variant, and we will list the optics and rail kit you will also need.
- Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
- Yes. Purchase orders are accepted from qualified organisations, net terms are available on approval, and tiered pricing applies at quantity. Tell us how many you need.

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Multi-node training is bounded by the fabric between the nodes, so the switch is specified with the cluster rather than after it.
