Aruba 2930F 24G PoE+ 4SFP Switch

The HPE JL261A#ABA is a fixed-configuration Layer 3 managed switch with 24 autosensing Gigabit RJ-45 ports that deliver PoE+ power. Four 1 Gigabit SFP uplinks provide fibre connectivity for aggregation or uplinks to core infrastructure. An out-of-band Ethernet management port keeps administrative traffic separate from data traffic. No software licensing is required for the included routing feature set.

IT teams needing PoE+ for access points cameras

This switch suits environments that require up to 740 W of internal PoE+ power for wireless access points IP cameras and VoIP phones. Integrated wired and wireless management simplifies operations when paired with Aruba access points for automatic VLAN configuration and rogue AP containment. Organisations that need higher port density or 10 Gigabit uplinks should evaluate other models.

740 W PoE+ power budget

The single specification that determines fit is the 740 W PoE+ power budget which dictates how many Class 4 devices can be powered simultaneously. Buyers must calculate their total powered-device draw against this limit before deployment. The 24 RJ-45 ports and 4 SFP ports are fixed so expansion requires additional switches.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power does the 740 W PoE+ budget draw when the switch runs continuously?

The switch provides up to 740 W of internal PoE+ power for attached devices; its own operating draw scales with the actual PoE load and the fixed 1 GbE switching fabric.

Which SFP transceivers or cables must I already own to use the four 1 Gigabit SFP uplinks?

The four SFP ports accept standard 1 Gigabit SFP modules — choose copper or fibre transceivers that match the link distance and fibre type you plan to deploy.

Will the RJ-45 autosensing 10/100/1000 PoE+ ports negotiate correctly with older 10/100 devices I keep?

Yes, each of the 24 RJ-45 ports autosenses 10, 100 or 1000 Mb/s and supplies PoE+ only when a powered device requests it, so legacy 10/100 gear connects without configuration.
