HPE CW 2150 24-Port Managed Layer 3 Switch with 4 SFP+ Uplinks, S6X50A#ABA

HPE CW 2150 24p 10M/100M/1G 4p SFP+ 1G/10G Switch (S6X50A)

The HPE Networking CW 2150 24-port switch, part number S6X50A#ABA, provides secure, reliable, and scalable wired connectivity for small and medium-sized businesses, branch offices, and demanding network environments. This fully managed Layer 3 Ethernet switch supports 10/100/1000 Mbps access connections and includes four 1G/10G SFP+ uplinks for high-speed aggregation. Its stackable design enables up to nine switches to operate as an IRF stack, helping improve availability, simplify administration, and support future network expansion.

Built for efficient network performance, the HPE CW 2150 delivers up to 176 Gbps of nonblocking bandwidth and up to 130 Mpps of forwarding capacity. Advanced Quality of Service supports traffic prioritization for voice, video, and business-critical applications, while IPv6, RIP, and OSPF provide flexible Layer 3 routing capabilities. IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet helps reduce power consumption during periods of low network activity, and the series supports fanless operation on applicable non-PoE models for quieter deployments.

Comprehensive security features help protect connected devices and network traffic. Secure boot verifies software integrity at startup, while granular IPv4 and IPv6 access control lists, VLAN and port-based policies, 802.1X, MAC, Web, RADIUS, and TACACS+ authentication help enforce access requirements. Encrypted management is supported through SSHv2, SSL, SNMPv3, and TLS. Additional protections include Control Plane Policing, ARP and DHCP safeguards, ICMP throttling, port security, source-port filtering, audit logging, and role-based administration.

The HPE Networking CW 2150 is manageable through a Web GUI, industry-standard CLI, Smart Management Center dashboard, HPE Intelligent Management Center, SNMP managers, and REST APIs. These options support streamlined deployment, centralized monitoring, and integration with existing management platforms. With enterprise-class switching, flexible uplink connectivity, robust security, and lifetime limited warranty coverage, the HPE CW 2150 S6X50A#ABA is a practical foundation for reliable business networking.
