HPE

HPE CW 2150 48p 10/100/1G 4p SFP+ 1G/10G network switch

SKU CH-K4V0-K3FT2

48-port managed Layer 3 switch with four 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks, 176Gbps nonblocking bandwidth, 131Mpps forwarding and 42W power draw

  • Manageable Layer 3 switching simplifies network control
  • 48 Gigabit ports connect many wired devices
  • Four SFP+ uplinks enable 10G fiber links
  • 176Gbps nonblocking bandwidth handles heavy traffic
  • 42W power consumption reduces energy costs

HPE CW 2150 managed Layer 3 switch

This HPE CW 2150 switch provides 48 copper ports running at 10/100/1000 Mbps and four SFP+ uplinks that operate at 1G or 10G. It is a fully managed, stackable Layer 3 device designed for small and medium businesses or branch offices that need enterprise-grade features without high complexity. The unit draws 42 W and supports both twisted-pair and optical-fiber media.

Suitable for SMB and branch-office cores

Organisations that need a single stackable switch with Layer 3 routing, IRF stacking of up to nine units, and 10G uplinks will find this model fits. Buyers who require Power over Ethernet, more than four 10G uplinks, or a higher non-blocking throughput than 176 Gbps should evaluate other platforms.

176 Gbps non-blocking bandwidth

The switch delivers 176 Gbps of non-blocking bandwidth and up to 131 Mpps forwarding capacity. This single figure determines whether the device can handle the aggregate traffic of a converged access layer without congestion.

Questions about this item

Will the 10/100/1000Base-T ports negotiate with my older 100 Mbps equipment?

Yes, the 10/100/1000Base-T interfaces auto-negotiate down to 100 Mbps or 10 Mbps so legacy devices connect without configuration.

How can I verify the 176 Gbps non-blocking bandwidth and 131 Mpps forwarding are active after installation?

Check the management dashboard for port utilisation and throughput counters; they will reflect line-rate performance when traffic is flowing.

Does the box include SFP+ transceivers for the four 1G/10G uplinks or must I purchase them separately?

Transceivers are not included; you need to buy compatible 1G or 10G SFP+ modules for each uplink you plan to use.
