## Long description

The HPE Aruba Networking 2930F 12G PoE+ 2G/2SFP+ Switch is a managed Layer 3 access switch designed for enterprise edge, SMB and branch office networks. It provides twelve Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports with PoE+ capability, two 10GbE-capable SFP+ uplinks and two 1/10 GbE combo ports for flexible uplink options. The switch supports industry networking standards and delivers a switching capacity of 68 Gbit/s together with a MAC address table of 32,768 entries. The 1U rack-mountable, black form factor integrates with HPE Aruba management tools, offers stacking via Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) and supports Zero Touch Provisioning and cloud-based management for simplified deployment.
Advantages
The switch offers managed Layer 3 functionality including RIP and Access OSPF routing, robust QoS and ACL support for traffic control and security. With PoE+ support and up to 740 W total PoE budget (dependent on model/configuration), the unit can power IP phones, wireless access points and other powered devices. Built-in uplink flexibility provides both 1 GbE and 10 GbE options for aggregation and core connectivity, while stacking capability simplifies scale and management across multiple units. No additional software licensing is required for core features.
Suitable for
Small and medium business access layer connecting desktops, IP phones and wireless access points
Branch office networks requiring PoE+ and manageable Layer 3 routing
Enterprise edge deployments needing stacking and centralized management
Environments that require 10 GbE uplinks for server or uplink aggregation

How to use
Install the switch into a standard 19-inch 1U rack or place it on a stable shelf. Connect network devices to the Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports and use SFP+ or combo ports for uplink connections to aggregation switches or servers. Configure the switch using the web-based management interface, the HPE Aruba Management Software or cloud-based Aruba Central; Zero Touch Provisioning can be used for automated initial deployment. Enable PoE on required ports to power connected devices and configure VLANs, QoS and ACLs according to network design. For stacking, follow the Aruba VSF procedure to join multiple units and manage them as a single logical switch.
Usage recommendations
Place the switch in a ventilated rack space to ensure proper cooling, verify PoE budget against connected device power requirements, and use Aruba Central or AirWave for centralized monitoring and firmware management. When deploying stacking, ensure uniform firmware versions and consistent configuration to maintain predictable behavior and performance.
