How many access points can the HP 830 24-Port switch manage?

The switch supports up to 60 IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n/ac access points by default with 24 APs included. Additional capacity requires the optional 12-Access Point E-LTU license. This scalability accommodates branch offices from small deployments to large multi-floor installations without replacing hardware.

What is the total PoE+ power available and per-port limit?

The HP 830 24-Port provides 370W total PoE+ power with up to 30W per port. All 24 ports can deliver 30W simultaneously depending on the power source, supporting IP phones, wireless APs, and security cameras without separate electrical infrastructure.

Does this switch include a wireless controller or require external management?

The switch integrates a built-in wireless controller with unified wired-wireless access control. It includes IEEE 802.1X and portal authentication servers, eliminating the need for external controllers. Management is via IMC (Intelligent Management Center), CLI, or web-based interface.

What uplink options are available for core network connectivity?

Two 10GbE module slots on the rear panel provide high-speed core connectivity. Additionally, 4 SFP dual-personality 1000BASE-X Gigabit Ethernet ports offer flexible uplink options. These prevent transmission bottlenecks when aggregating traffic from 60 APs and 1000 concurrent users.

How many concurrent wireless users can this switch support?

The HP 830 24-Port supports up to 1000 concurrent wireless users across 64 configured SSIDs. It provides 2000 ACLs for granular access control and Virtual Service Domains to enforce security policies by department or location.

What authentication methods are supported?

Built-in IEEE 802.1X and portal authentication servers enable local user management without external infrastructure. The switch supports SNMPv1/v2c/v3, SSH v2, SSL, and RMON1 for secure management and monitoring across wired and wireless networks.

Is this switch suitable for small branch offices?

Yes. The 1U rack-mount form factor, unified wired-wireless functionality, and integrated controller make it ideal for small to medium branch offices. It consolidates multiple devices into one, reducing footprint, power consumption, and management complexity while supporting up to 1000 users.
