Product Identity

The HPE 2930F is a Layer 3 access switch with eight Gigabit PoE+ ports and two 10GbE SFP+ uplinks. It runs on an Aruba ProVision ASIC and supports RIP routing for basic Layer 3 forwarding.

Suitable Buyers

This switch suits small to mid-size businesses and branch offices that need to power phones, cameras or access points over copper while aggregating traffic onto 10GbE uplinks. It is not for buyers who need more than eight powered ports or who require advanced dynamic routing protocols beyond RIP.

Capacity and Headroom

Eight PoE+ ports deliver up to 30 W each for attached devices and the two SFP+ slots provide 10GbE uplink capacity for aggregation. The PoE power budget and RIP-only routing limit use in larger campus cores or deployments needing OSPF or BGP.

Questions about this item

What uplink speed do the two SFP+ ports provide for my existing 10 GbE fibre links?

The two SFP+ uplinks operate at 10 GbE, matching your current 10 GbE fibre connections.

Will this Layer 3 switch route traffic between VLANs on my older 1 GbE access switches?

Yes, the 2930F performs RIP routing between VLANs while the 1 GbE downlinks connect to legacy access switches.

How can I confirm the switch is forwarding traffic at line rate after installation?

Check the port LED status and use the management interface to verify throughput counters on each active port.
