Eunice Thirikwa - PeerSpot reviewer
Stable hotel networking enhances return on investment with valuable modular features
There are issues with the distribution side of Aruba Switches. For instance, the distributor in our country cannot sell to neighboring countries, creating complications in project execution. Improving the distribution network across regions would be beneficial. Also, the SFP modules are significantly more expensive than industry peers, which affects cost-effectiveness.

Provides faster output with manageability and reliability
Other switches often lack sufficient ports, particularly for fiber connections like SFP modules. For instance, a 24-port LAN switch might only include a limited number of SFP ports, typically just four. More switches with a higher number of SFP ports are needed to better accommodate various networking requirements. Having more SFP ports would benefit us, clients, and system integrators. Additionally, as technology evolves, devices with advanced features, like those offered by DeepLink, will become increasingly valuable. DeepLink regularly updates and improves its range of network switches and access points, offering enhanced capabilities each year. They need to streamline the device reset process. For instance, resetting an Omada access point currently involves about seven steps. Improving this process to make it faster and simpler would be beneficial, as the current method takes too long.
