Aruba Comware 2150 - 48-port Layer 3 managed Gigabit switch

The Aruba/HPE Comware 2150 48-Port L3 Managed Gigabit Switch is designed for enterprise network wiring and routing. It features 48 Gigabit RJ-45 ports for connecting corporate LANs or branch offices. The unit provides a total switching capacity of 176 Gbit/s and a forwarding rate of 131 Mpps. As a non-PoE model, it is focused on data transfer rather than powering peripheral devices.

The device is housed in a 1U chassis for rack mounting. Administrators can manage the system via web interfaces, a command-line interface (CLI), REST API, or SNMP. Traffic segmentation and prioritization are managed through built-in VLAN support and Quality of Service (QoS) controls. The fanless design ensures silent operation, with a typical power consumption of 31 W. To scale with infrastructure growth, the system supports physical stacking of up to nine units for increased network resilience.

• Four dedicated SFP+ slots for 10G uplink connections.
• Layer 3 routing, including RIP-2 and policy-based routing (PBR), with support for 1,500 routing entries.
• Hardware specifications: 1200 MHz CPU, 1024 MB of internal memory, and a 16,000-entry MAC address table.
• Forwarding latency of 3 µs for 10 Gbps traffic and 5 µs for 1 Gbps traffic.
• Integrated network security, including access control lists (ACL), ARP inspection, and IP-MAC-port binding.
