Description

The HPE Networking CW 2150 is a 16-port Gigabit PoE+ managed switch designed for small-to-medium business and branch deployments where reliable power delivery and high-speed uplinks are essential. With 16x 10/100/1000BASE-T PoE+ ports and a 248W PoE budget, it can simultaneously power IP phones, wireless access points, and IP cameras across the entire port count. Four SFP+ uplink ports supporting 1G/10G provide scalable fibre or direct-attach connectivity back to the core or distribution layer.

Built under the HPE Networking Comware (CW) portfolio, the 2150 delivers enterprise-grade Layer 2 management features including VLAN, QoS, and IGMP snooping in a compact form factor suited to wiring closets and edge deployments.

FAQs

Q: How many devices can be powered simultaneously by the PoE+ ports on the CW 2150?
A: The CW 2150 provides 248W of total PoE budget across 16 PoE+ ports. The number of devices depends on each device's power draw — for example, it can power up to 16 standard IEEE 802.3at PoE+ devices at lower wattages, or fewer high-draw devices such as pan-tilt-zoom cameras or Wi-Fi 6 access points.

Q: What are the 4x SFP+ ports used for?
A: The four SFP+ ports support both 1G and 10G transceivers, enabling high-speed uplinks to a core switch, distribution layer, or fibre backbone. They can also accept DAC (Direct Attach Copper) cables for short-distance 10G connections.

Q: Is the HPE CW 2150 suitable for powering Wi-Fi 6 access points?
A: Yes. Wi-Fi 6 access points typically require PoE+ (802.3at) at up to 25.5W per port. The CW 2150's 248W budget across 16 ports makes it well suited to powering a full wireless deployment in a small office or branch environment.

Q: What is the difference between the CW 2150 and the Aruba Instant On switch range?
A: The CW 2150 sits within HPE's Comware-based Networking portfolio, offering traditional enterprise CLI and SNMP management. Aruba Instant On switches are cloud-managed and designed for simplified SMB deployments. The CW 2150 is better suited to environments requiring granular, on-premises management.

Q: Can I purchase the HPE S6X55A#ABG (CW 2150) in Australia through IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller supplying HPE Networking products including the CW 2150. Contact us for pricing, availability, and local pre-sales support.

Q: Does the CW 2150 support VLAN and QoS for voice and video traffic prioritisation?
A: Yes. As a managed Layer 2 switch, the CW 2150 supports 802.1Q VLANs, Quality of Service (QoS) prioritisation, and IGMP snooping — making it suitable for mixed environments with voice, video surveillance, and data traffic on the same switch.
