Description

The HPE Networking CW 2150 is a fully managed Layer 3 access switch delivering 24 x Gigabit PoE+ ports with a 405W Class 4 power budget — ideal for SMB and enterprise branch deployments powering high-density IP phones, wireless access points, and IoT devices. Four 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks provide flexible high-speed connectivity, while up to 176 Gbps of nonblocking switching bandwidth and 131 Mpps forwarding rate ensure low-latency performance at full load.

Built for resilience, the CW 2150 supports up to 9-unit IRF stacking for high availability and link redundancy, plus Fast PoE and Perpetual PoE to keep connected devices powered through switch reboots. Advanced security features include 802.1X, RADIUS, TACACS+, DoS protection, and encrypted management via SSHv2/SNMPv3, with built-in 6 kV surge protection for demanding environments. Available now at iptrading.com.au — competitive prices and local support.

Features

- Fast PoE delivers power to connected devices within seconds of system startup
- Perpetual PoE maintains power to end-devices during power-source reboots — critical for VoIP and surveillance
- PoE Watchdog automatically removes port power when a connected device becomes inactive
- Up to 9-unit IRF stacking for high availability, link redundancy, and unified management
- Secure boot with digital signature verification prevents unauthorised software at startup
- Advanced QoS for traffic prioritisation across voice, video, and data workloads
- Dynamic Layer 3 routing: PBR, RIP, OSPF with full IPv6 and Multi-VRF (VRF-Lite) support
- Threat prevention: DoS protection, ARP/DHCP protection, ICMP throttling, port security, source-port filtering
- Authentication: 802.1X, MAC-based, Web, RADIUS, TACACS+ with role-based access privileges
- Encrypted management via SSHv2, SSL, SNMPv3, and TLS
- Management options: Web GUI, CLI, embedded CW Dashboard (SmartMC), HPE IMC, AirWave, SNMP, REST APIs
- Provider Backbone Bridges (PBB) and Ethernet OAM (IEEE 802.3ah) for carrier-grade link monitoring
- Built-in 6 kV surge protection for deployment in electrically demanding environments
- IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet reduces power consumption during low-traffic periods

FAQs

Q: What is the total PoE budget on the HPE Networking CW 2150 24-port switch?
A: The CW 2150 (S6X51A) provides a 405W Class 4 PoE budget across its 24 x 802.3at PoE+ ports, delivering up to 30W per port — sufficient for powering high-density Wi-Fi 6 access points, IP phones, and surveillance cameras simultaneously.

Q: Does the HPE CW 2150 support stacking, and how many units can be stacked?
A: Yes. The CW 2150 supports Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) stacking of up to 9 units, enabling a single logical switch with high availability, link redundancy, and simplified management across the entire stack.

Q: What uplink options are available on the S6X51A?
A: The switch includes four SFP+ ports supporting both 1G and 10G speeds for flexible high-bandwidth uplinks to core or distribution switches, plus four SFP 1G Combo ports (shared with RJ45 ports) for additional connectivity options.

Q: Is the HPE Networking CW 2150 a Layer 3 switch, and what routing protocols does it support?
A: Yes, it is a fully managed Layer 3 switch supporting dynamic routing protocols including RIP, OSPF, and Policy-Based Routing (PBR), along with full IPv6 support and Multi-VRF Customer Edge (VRF-Lite) for network segmentation.

Q: What security features does the CW 2150 include?
A: The switch provides multi-layer security including 802.1X, MAC-based and Web authentication, RADIUS and TACACS+ integration, granular ACLs (IPv4/IPv6/VLAN/port-based), DoS protection, ARP and DHCP protection, port security, and encrypted management via SSHv2, SSL, SNMPv3, and TLS.

Q: Can I purchase the HPE S6X51A switch in Australia with local support?
A: Yes. The HPE Networking CW 2150 24-port PoE+ switch (S6X51A) is available from iptrading.com.au, an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller offering competitive pricing and local support for business deployments.
