Description

The HPE Networking CW 2150 is a fully managed Layer 3 Gigabit PoE+ switch delivering 48 x 10/100/1000M PoE+ ports with a 770W power budget — ideal for SMBs and enterprise branch offices powering dense deployments of IP phones, wireless APs, and IoT devices. With 176 Gbps nonblocking switching capacity, 131 Mpps forwarding rate, and four 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks, it handles high-throughput access layer workloads without compromise.

Built on Comware OS, the CW 2150 supports IRF stacking of up to 9 switches for resilient, scalable availability, plus advanced L3 routing (OSPF, RIP, PBR), Fast/Perpetual PoE, granular ACLs, 802.1X authentication, and encrypted management via SSHv2, SNMPv3, and REST APIs — all managed through the embedded CW Dashboard at no extra licensing cost.

Features

- Fast PoE — delivers power within seconds of system startup, before OS fully loads
- Perpetual PoE — maintains PoE to connected devices during power-source reboot
- PoE Watchdog — automatically removes power from an inactive port's connected device
- Up to 9-switch IRF stacking for resilient, scalable network availability
- Secure Boot verifies digital signatures to prevent unauthorised software at startup
- Multi-layer access protection with granular ACLs (IPv4/IPv6, VLAN, port-based)
- Authentication via 802.1X, MAC, Web, RADIUS, and TACACS+
- Encrypted management via SSHv2, SSL, SNMPv3, and TLS
- Threat prevention: Control Plane Policing (DoS), ARP/DHCP protection, port security
- Zero-cost management via Web GUI, CLI, and embedded CW Dashboard (SmartMC)
- Additional management via HPE IMC, AirWave, SNMP managers, and REST APIs
- Multi-VRF (VRF-Lite/MCE) support for traffic separation
- Advanced QoS and full IPv6 support
- Compatible with non-HPE 1G and 10G transceivers and cables

FAQs

Q: What is the total PoE power budget on the HPE CW 2150 48p switch?
A: The CW 2150 (S6X54A) provides a 770W total PoE budget across all 48 ports, supporting IEEE 802.3at Class 4 with up to 30W per port — sufficient for high-density deployments of IP phones, Wi-Fi access points, and IoT devices.

Q: Does the CW 2150 support stacking, and how many switches can be stacked?
A: Yes. The CW 2150 supports IRF (Intelligent Resilient Fabric) stacking of up to 9 switches, enabling a single logical management plane, simplified configuration, and improved network resiliency across the stack.

Q: What Layer 3 routing protocols does the CW 2150 support?
A: The switch supports dynamic L3 routing including OSPF, RIP, and Policy-Based Routing (PBR), as well as Multi-VRF (VRF-Lite/MCE) for traffic separation — making it suitable for enterprise branch and SMB environments requiring segmentation.

Q: What management options are available for the CW 2150?
A: The CW 2150 includes a built-in CW Dashboard (SmartMC) for zero-cost local management via Web GUI and CLI. It also integrates with HPE IMC and AirWave, and supports SNMP managers and REST APIs for broader enterprise management deployments.

Q: Is the HPE CW 2150 compatible with third-party transceivers?
A: Yes. The CW 2150 explicitly supports non-HPE 1G and 10G transceivers and cables in its SFP+ uplink ports, giving network teams flexibility to use existing inventory or cost-effective third-party optics.

Q: Can I purchase the HPE S6X54A in Australia from IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller supplying the HPE Networking CW 2150 48p PoE+ Switch (S6X54A). We supply authentic hardware with reliable service and local support for Australian businesses.
