Product Features
Technical Overview
Built on HPE's 2930F series platform, this switch supports full Layer 3 static routing and dynamic routing protocols like OSPF and RIP, enabling scalable network segmentation and efficient traffic management. The eight Gigabit RJ-45 ports deliver up to 30W per port of PoE+ power, supporting IEEE 802.3at standards for powering connected devices directly over Ethernet cabling.
The dual SFP+ slots support 10 Gigabit Ethernet over fiber or DAC cables, providing high-bandwidth uplinks to core switches or servers. The switch supports a variety of media types, including cost-effective twisted pair cabling for distances up to 100 meters and optical fiber for longer runs or noise-immune connections.
This section brings together practical product details such as Total Number of Network Ports, Uplink Port, Modular, Media Type Supported, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
This switch offers a balanced set of features that prioritize reliability, power delivery, and future-proof connectivity. The integrated PoE+ eliminates the need for separate power injectors, simplifying deployments and reducing clutter. The Layer 3 capabilities provide routing flexibility without requiring an external router, making it ideal for segmented networks or multi-VLAN environments.
High-Speed Uplinks
The two SFP+ ports deliver 10 Gigabit throughput, which is up to ten times faster than standard Gigabit Ethernet, ensuring that uplink bottlenecks do not impact network performance during peak traffic periods.
Simplified Management
Managed via a web interface, CLI, or HPE's Intelligent Management Center, the switch offers features like VLANs, link aggregation, and port mirroring for comprehensive network control and troubleshooting.
Stacking Ready
The built-in stacking port allows multiple 2930F switches to be combined into a single logical unit, simplifying management, increasing redundancy, and enabling flexible expansion as network needs grow.

FAQ
How many PoE+ ports does this switch have and what is the power budget?
This switch has 8 Gigabit Ethernet ports that all support PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at), delivering up to 30W per port. The total PoE budget is 155W, which is sufficient to power multiple devices like IP phones, wireless access points, or security cameras simultaneously without requiring additional power sources.
What are the uplink options on this HPE switch?
The switch includes two 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplink slots. These slots support SFP+ transceivers for fiber optic connections or direct-attach copper cables, providing high-speed connectivity to core switches, servers, or network storage. This allows for backbone links that are ten times faster than standard Gigabit Ethernet.
Is this switch Layer 2 or Layer 3 capable?
This is a Layer 3 managed switch, meaning it supports advanced routing functions beyond basic Layer 2 switching. It can handle static routing and dynamic protocols like OSPF and RIP, enabling it to route traffic between different IP subnets or VLANs without needing a separate router, which simplifies network design and improves performance.
Can this switch be rack-mounted?
Yes, the switch is designed for 1U rack mounting, making it ideal for standard server racks or network cabinets. It includes the necessary mounting hardware and has dimensions that fit neatly into a 1U space. It can also be placed on a desktop if rack space is not available, offering flexible deployment options.
What does TAA compliance mean for this product?
TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliance indicates that this switch meets U.S. government procurement requirements, meaning it is manufactured or substantially transformed in a designated country. This makes it suitable for federal, state, and local government purchases, as well as for organizations that require TAA-compliant products for regulatory or contractual reasons.
How does the stacking feature work on this switch?
The switch includes a dedicated stacking port that allows you to connect multiple HPE 2930F series switches together to form a single logical unit. This simplifies management by allowing you to configure the stack as one device, increases redundancy, and enables easy expansion of port count and capabilities without complex network reconfiguration.
What uplink, SFP, fiber, or media support detail is listed?
The warranty or support detail listed is Yes, giving buyers a clearer picture of expected coverage after purchase.
