Aruba (HPE Networking) Comware 2150 - 8-Port Managed PoE+ Layer 3 Switch

The Aruba (HPE Networking) Comware 2150 8-Port Managed PoE+ Layer 3 Switch provides centralized traffic routing and network segmentation for branch offices. This 1U rack-mountable unit features eight Gigabit RJ-45 ports for local devices and four SFP slots for 10G uplinks to the core network. It offers a total switching capacity of 60 Gbit/s and a hardware forwarding rate of 44.6 Mpps, designed to manage high data volumes across multiple active connections.

The switch delivers a 125 W total PoE+ power budget to connected endpoints, such as surveillance cameras or wireless access points. Management is performed via command-line interface, REST API, or SNMP, rather than a web interface. The software includes traffic shaping features, including access control lists and VLAN segmentation. Multiple units can be stacked for scalability, and built-in link aggregation supports connection stability.

• Supports a 16,000-entry MAC address table for tracking hardware in corporate subnets.
• Processes jumbo frames up to 9000 bytes to improve transfer efficiency during large file migrations.
• Latency is 5 microseconds on 1 Gbps links and 3 microseconds on 10 Gbps uplinks.
• Includes 1.5 MB of packet buffer memory to manage traffic during periods of congestion.
• Uses IGMP snooping to route multicast transmissions only to requesting clients.
