Product overview

The HPE Aruba 2930F 24G 4SFP is a Layer 3 managed access switch designed for enterprise campus and branch networks requiring high-performance, low-latency switching with integrated security and quality-of-service capabilities. The switch features 24 autosensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ45 ports and four 1G SFP uplink ports, supporting both fiber and copper connectivity. Built on HPE's ProVision ASIC architecture, the 2930F delivers store-and-forward switching with minimal latency and intelligent packet buffering. The switch supports full PoE+ (Power over Ethernet Plus) delivery up to 30W per port for powering IP phones, wireless access points, and network cameras. Advanced Layer 3 capabilities include static routing, OSPF, RIP, and Access Control Lists (ACLs) without requiring additional software licenses. The 2930F supports Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) technology, enabling up to eight physical switches to be virtualized into a single logical device for simplified management and improved network agility. Security features include 802.1X authentication, MAC-based authentication, RADIUS/TACACS+, port security, and MAC address lockout. The switch integrates with HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Policy Manager for unified wired and wireless policy management, and supports cloud-based management via HPE Aruba Networking Central with Zero Touch Provisioning. Ideal for organizations building smart digital workplaces with integrated wired and wireless infrastructure.

Frequently asked questions

What are the network port specifications of the HPE Aruba 2930F 24G 4SFP?

The switch provides 24 autosensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ45 ports and four 1G SFP uplink ports. All RJ45 ports support Auto-MDIX for flexible cabling. SFP ports accept 100-FX and 1G SFP transceivers. All ports operate at full duplex with automatic negotiation on twisted-pair connections.

How much Power over Ethernet (PoE+) power does this switch deliver?

The 2930F 24G 4SFP delivers IEEE 802.3at-compliant PoE+ at up to 30W per port. This enables powering of IP phones, wireless access points, indoor web cameras, and other PoE+ devices across all 24 ports simultaneously, supporting typical enterprise deployments.

What Layer 3 routing capabilities does the 2930F support?

The switch includes full Layer 3 routing features including static routes, OSPF (Open Shortest Path First), and RIP (Routing Information Protocol). Access Control Lists (ACLs) enable granular traffic filtering and policy enforcement. All routing features are included without additional software licensing.

How does Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) improve network management?

VSF virtualizes up to eight physical 2930F switches into a single logical device, eliminating the need for spanning tree and simplifying network topology. This enables non-disruptive software upgrades, unified management, and improved redundancy while reducing operational complexity in multi-switch deployments.

What security and authentication options are available on the 2930F?

Security features include 802.1X port-based authentication, MAC-based authentication, Web-based authentication, RADIUS/TACACS+ server integration, port security, and MAC address lockout. These enable flexible, standards-based network access control and policy enforcement for enterprise security requirements.

What management interfaces and protocols does the switch support?

The 2930F supports VT-100 terminal console interface via RJ45 or Micro-USB, web-based GUI, SNMP, REST APIs, and OpenFlow 1.0/1.3 for programmatic control. Integration with HPE Aruba Networking ClearPass Policy Manager and cloud-based HPE Aruba Networking Central enables unified wired/wireless management.

What power supply specifications apply to the JL258-61001 model?

The 2930F 24G 4SFP uses an internal AC power supply with automatic voltage adjustment between 100-127V and 200-240V at 50 or 60 Hz. No manual voltage configuration is required. The switch powers on automatically when connected to an active AC power source; there is no power switch.
