The HPE Aruba Networking 2930F 8G PoE+ 2SFP+ Switch (Model: JL258A) is a compact, high-performance Layer 3 access switch designed for modern digital workplaces. It integrates wired and wireless connectivity, offering advanced security, cloud management, and Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) support. Ideal for small to medium-sized deployments, this switch provides reliable, scalable networking with zero-touch provisioning and robust QoS features.

• 8 x 10/100/1000 PoE+ ports with IEEE 802.3at support
• 2 x SFP+ 1G/10G uplink ports
• Cloud-ready with HPE Aruba Networking Central support
• Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP) for easy deployment
• Advanced security features including Dynamic Segmentation and ClearPass integration
• Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) stacking for scalability
• Energy-efficient design with fanless operation

The JL258A switch leverages HPE Aruba Networking's ProVision ASIC for low latency and high performance. It supports:

• IEEE 802.3af/at PoE/PoE+
• IEEE 802.1Q VLANs and QoS
• REST APIs and OpenFlow for SDN readiness
• IPv4/IPv6 dual stack routing
• OSPF, RIP, and static routing protocols

The switch operates as a Layer 3 access device, forwarding traffic based on MAC and IP addresses. It uses VSF stacking to combine multiple units into a single logical switch, simplifying management. PoE+ ports deliver up to 30W per port to powered devices like APs and IP phones. Traffic is prioritized via QoS policies, and security is enforced through role-based access control and ACLs.
