## Summary description

The Aruba 2930F is a managed L3 switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports, supporting PoE. It features a switching capacity of 176 Gbit/s and a MAC address table of 32768 entries, making it ideal for high-performance networking.

## Long description

The Aruba 2930F is a managed Layer 3 gigabit access switch with 48 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and Power over Ethernet (PoE/PoE+). It is built for wired access in modern mobile-optimized workplaces and combines integrated uplinks, PoE power and a ProVision ASIC for switching performance, programmability and support for current network features. The switch supports stacking with Virtual Switching Framework (VSF), access OSPF routing, RIP, IPv6, Dynamic Segmentation, robust QoS and can be deployed and managed with Aruba ClearPass, AirWave or cloud-based Aruba Central. A limited lifetime warranty is included.
Advantages
The Aruba 2930F offers a high-density 48-port gigabit configuration with built-in PoE/PoE+ to power connected devices directly from the access switch. Integrated 1GbE/10GbE uplink options, a dedicated ProVision ASIC and VSF stacking enable stable throughput, scalability and predictable performance for campus and branch access layers. Management and security integration with Aruba ClearPass, AirWave and Aruba Central simplify deployment and ongoing operations, while Zero Touch Provisioning speeds initial setup.
Suitable for
Medium to large office access layer requiring 48 gigabit ports with PoE/PoE+
Environments needing integrated 1GbE/10GbE uplinks and stacking for scalability
Networks that use Aruba ClearPass, AirWave or Aruba Central for management and policy enforcement
Deployments that require basic Layer 3 features such as OSPF, RIP and IPv6 support
When it may not be suitable
This switch is intended for access-layer deployments where 48 gigabit ports and PoE are required; it may not be suitable as a core switch in very large data centre environments that require multi-terabit switching fabrics or specialized layer 4–7 services. It also does not require additional software licensing for the listed Layer 3 features, but very advanced routing or carrier-grade functions beyond OSPF and RIP are not the target use case.
Key specifications
Ports: 48 x 10/100/1000 RJ-45 access ports
Uplinks: Built-in 1GbE and 10GbE uplink support (model-specific SFP/SFP+ slots)
PoE: PoE/PoE+ support to power access devices
Switching capacity: 176 Gbit/s
MAC address table: 32,768 entries
Networking standards: IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3ab, IEEE 802.3at, IEEE 802.3u
Layer 3: Access OSPF routing, RIP, IPv6 support, Dynamic Segmentation
Stacking: Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) support
Weight: 4.46 kg
Colour: Grey
How to use
Install the Aruba 2930F in a standard 1U rack space and connect powered devices to the 48 RJ-45 ports. Configure uplinks using the available SFP/SFP+ slots for aggregation or uplink to distribution/core switches. Use Zero Touch Provisioning for initial deployment or manage the switch via Aruba Central, AirWave or ClearPass for policy and device management. Configure Layer 3 settings such as OSPF or RIP and set VLANs, QoS and Dynamic Segmentation according to network design.
What to consider before purchase
Confirm required PoE budget and PoE/PoE+ support for your powered devices
Check whether 1GbE or 10GbE uplink ports and SFP/SFP+ modules meet your aggregation needs
Verify that built-in Layer 3 features (OSPF, RIP, IPv6) satisfy routing requirements
Ensure compatibility with your chosen management platform (Aruba Central, AirWave, ClearPass)
Usage recommendations
For stable campus access, deploy the Aruba 2930F as an access-layer switch with redundant uplinks and enable VSF stacking for simplified management and scalability; monitor PoE consumption to ensure sufficient power for connected devices.
