Description

The HPE Networking CW 2050 24-Port Gigabit PoE+ Switch is a fully managed, stackable Layer 2 access switch engineered for small and medium-sized businesses and branch office deployments. With 24 x 10/100/1000BASE-T PoE+ ports, a 420W total PoE budget, and PoE++ capability delivering up to 100W per port, it powers the latest Wi-Fi 7 access points, IP cameras, and video phones with ease. Four built-in 1G/2.5G SFP uplinks provide non-blocking throughput at up to 116 Gbps switching capacity and 86 Mpps forwarding performance.

Designed for resilience and security, the CW 2050 supports two-switch IRF stacking for high availability, Layer 3 static routing, IPv6, and industry-leading 6 kV service-port surge protection. Comprehensive management options include Web GUI, CLI, SNMP, REST API, and HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC), backed by multi-layered security via 802.1X, RADIUS, TACACS+, SSHv2, SSL, and Secure Boot.

FAQs

Q: What PoE standards does the HPE CW 2050 24-Port Switch support?
A: The CW 2050 supports both PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) and PoE++ (IEEE 802.3bt), delivering up to 100W per port when required. The total PoE power budget is 420W across all 24 access ports, making it well-suited for powering high-demand devices such as Wi-Fi 7 access points, PTZ cameras, and video conferencing endpoints.

Q: Can the HPE CW 2050 be stacked with other switches?
A: Yes. The CW 2050 supports two-switch Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) stacking, enabling high availability with uninterrupted Layer 2 switching and Layer 3 forwarding. This allows two units to operate as a single logical switch, simplifying management and improving network resilience.

Q: Does the HPE CW 2050 support Layer 3 routing?
A: Yes. The CW 2050 supports Layer 3 static routing as well as full IPv6, making it suitable for environments that require inter-VLAN routing or future-proof addressing without the need for a dedicated router.

Q: What management options are available for the CW 2050?
A: The switch supports a comprehensive range of management interfaces including Web GUI, command-line interface (CLI), SNMP, REST API, and centralised management via HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC). Secure access is enforced through SSHv2, SSL, SNMPv3, and TLS with role-based privileges and audit logging.

Q: Is the HPE CW 2050 suitable for environments with power surge risks?
A: Yes. The CW 2050 features industry-leading 6 kV service-port surge protection, making it well-suited for deployments in environments subject to electrical surges, such as factory floors, warehouses, or mixed-use commercial buildings.
