HP Aruba 2930F 48-Port PoE+ Switch

The HP Aruba 2930F JL557A is a Layer 3 access switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports and four SFP uplinks. It delivers up to 740 W of PoE+ power for connected devices. The switch is designed for digital workplaces that need secure, manageable wired connectivity.

Ideal for mobile-first offices and branch sites

This switch suits organisations deploying wireless access points, IP phones or cameras that require PoE+ on many ports. It supports Virtual Switching Framework stacking for simplified scaling across up to four units. Buyers who need higher port densities or aggregated uplink speeds beyond the provided SFP slots should evaluate other platforms.

Layer 3 routing with 740 W PoE+ budget

The defining specification is the 740 W PoE+ power budget combined with Layer 3 routing features such as RIP and OSPF. This capacity determines how many powered devices the switch can support simultaneously while handling inter-VLAN routing locally.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 48-port model or a smaller switch for my deployment?

The 48-port model provides 48 Gigabit PoE+ ports and four SFP uplinks with a 740 W PoE budget, suitable for larger access-layer deployments.

What does the 740 W PoE+ budget deliver in a real installation?

A 740 W budget can power up to 48 devices simultaneously at up to 30 W each, or fewer devices at higher per-port draw within the total limit.

What uplink speeds do the four SFP ports support and what do they cap in practice?

The four SFP ports accept 1 GbE or 10 GbE transceivers, capping uplink throughput at 10 Gbps per port.
