SOLVED: Comparison of Aruba 2930F, 2930M 3810 & Juniper EX3200 EX3300 EX3400 Series Switches

Below is a comparison of HPE Aruba and Juniper mid-range Gigabit switches we had to build for one of our customers.

All of these switches can be happily used in medium sized offices or branch offices and offer a full range of features. If you are interested in Aruba, you will likely want to skim through our article: Is HPE Killing Aruba & What is The Main Difference Between Aruba 2930F and 2930M Switches?

Of particular interest to us is the SWITCHING PERFORMANCE which is how much data the switch can move at the same time.
