24-port PoE+ enterprise switch from Aruba/HP has been tested and is fully working. The reason for selling is that I have moved on to Ubiquiti gear, so there is no need for it.
Please know what you are buying as sales are final.
The Aruba 2530-24G PoE+ Switch (J9773A) is a fully managed Layer 2 enterprise-grade network switch designed for reliable edge, branch office, and small-to-medium business (SMB) deployments. It provides solid Gigabit performance alongside flexible Power over Ethernet capabilities to drive hardware like IP phones, security cameras, and wireless access points.
Key Specifications
• Ports: 24 RJ-45 autosensing 10/100/1000 PoE+ ports and 4 fixed Gigabit SFP uplink slots for fiber connectivity.
• PoE Power Budget: 195W total PoE+ capacity. It supports both IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at standards, delivering up to 30W per port.
• Performance: Features a 56 Gbps switching capacity and a forwarding throughput of up to 41.6 million packets per second (Mpps).
• Latency: Extremely low latency with < 2.3 µs for 1000 Mb speeds and < 7.4 µs for 100 Mb speeds (LIFO 64-byte packets).
• Hardware Architecture: Powered by an ARM9E processor clocked at 800 MHz, backed by 256 MB DDR3 DIMM memory, 128 MB flash storage, and a 1.5 MB dynamic packet buffer.
• MAC Address Table: Supports up to 16,000 entries, ensuring smooth traffic management in dense environments.
Management & Security Features
• Unified Management: Can be deployed and managed via the Aruba Networks Management Tools Suite including Aruba Central (cloud), AirWave (on-premises), a standard Web GUI, and a robust Command Line Interface (CLI).
• Deployments: Supports Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) to quickly bring remote offices online without requiring an on-site IT administrator.
• Traffic & Security Optimization: Implements IEEE 802.1p traffic prioritization (QoS), basic Denial of Service (DoS) protection, and sFlow/RMON monitoring for granular network visibility.
• Access Controls: Integrates natively with ClearPass Policy Manager for advanced, identity-based network access control and security policies.
Physical & Operational Characteristics
• Form Factor: Standard 1U rack-mountable chassis.
• Dimensions: 17.44(w) x 13.00(d) x 1.75(h) inches / 44.3 x 33.02 x 4.45 cm.
• Power Demand: Maximum power consumption is 247W under full PoE load, with a highly efficient idle consumption of just 25.2W.
• Consoles: Built with a dual-personality out-of-band management console port accommodating either an RJ-45 or a USB Micro-B connection
