HP Aruba 2930F JL261A — 24-Port PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switch with Layer 3
The HP Aruba 2930F (JL261A) delivers 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports with a 370W power budget, four SFP+ uplinks, and full Layer 3 routing in a 1U chassis. Purpose-built for enterprise access layer deployments, it powers IP phones, wireless APs, and cameras while supporting advanced routing and security policies. Backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.
- 24 × PoE+ Gigabit Ports: IEEE 802.3at PoE+ on every port with a 370W shared budget — enough for a full floor of IP phones, APs, and cameras.
- 4 × SFP+ Uplinks: 1G/10G-capable SFP+ ports for high-speed uplinks to core switches or aggregation layers.
- Full Layer 3 Management: Static routing, OSPF, RIP, VLAN routing, and advanced policy features — beyond basic L2 switching.
- Enterprise Security: 802.1X authentication, MAC auth, DHCP snooping, Dynamic ARP protection, and ACLs at the access edge.
- Aruba Central Ready: Integrates with Aruba Central for cloud-based management and Zero Touch Provisioning.
- Quiet & Compact: Variable-speed fans, 1U rack form factor, 440 × 44 × 265 mm, 4.0 kg.
Performance in Use
The 2930F JL261A is a step up from the 2530 series — where the 2530 handles Layer 2, the 2930F adds full Layer 3 routing, making it suitable as both an access switch and a distribution layer device. Deploy it to aggregate multiple access switches, route between VLANs without a separate router, or anchor a campus wireless network with the 370W PoE budget powering the AP fleet.
The SFP+ uplinks are particularly valuable: 10G-capable modules allow this switch to uplink at 10 Gbps to a core switch, eliminating the aggregation bottleneck that occurs when 24 active Gigabit ports converge onto a 1G uplink. The four SFP+ ports give flexibility for redundant uplinks or multi-switch ring topologies.
Management is handled via CLI, web GUI, SNMP, and Aruba Central. Zero Touch Provisioning lets IT teams pre-configure the switch before deployment — useful for multi-site rollouts where remote hands-on configuration is impractical.

| Distribution switching with VLAN routing | Environments not requiring PoE |
| Aruba wireless deployments needing PoE APs | Very large port count (48+) requirements |
| Multi-site rollouts using Zero Touch Provisioning | Budget buyers — 2530 series is more economical |

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between JL261A and JL255A?
JL261A is the 24-port PoE+ model with 4x SFP+ uplinks. JL255A is the non-PoE 24-port model. Both are Aruba 2930F switches with identical Layer 3 features — the difference is purely PoE capability and power supply sizing.
Are the SFP+ ports 10G capable?
Yes — the four SFP+ ports support both 1G and 10G SFP+ modules. Using 10G modules provides significant uplink headroom when multiple Gigabit access ports are active simultaneously.
Can the 2930F route between VLANs without an external router?
Yes — the 2930F's Layer 3 capability includes inter-VLAN routing, static routes, OSPF, and RIP. It can act as both an access switch and a distribution router in smaller deployments.
Does it support Aruba Central cloud management?
Yes — the 2930F integrates with Aruba Central for cloud-based configuration, monitoring, and Zero Touch Provisioning. An Aruba Central subscription is required separately.
What are the shipping options?
Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout. This switch is a 1U rack unit (approx. 4 kg) so freight rates will apply.
12-Month Warranty & Reboot IT Trust
Every HP Aruba 2930F sold by Reboot IT includes a 12-month warranty covering hardware defects and port failures. Our Melbourne-based team has been refurbishing enterprise networking equipment since 2001. All ports and PoE are verified before dispatch. Shop at reboot-it.com.au.

Great little laptop for school
Good value and great quality
Fantastic service
I was looking for an in-expensive all-in-one solution for my home office to replace my existing desktop and monitor. I found this EliteOne 800 on reboot IT for under $200. I wasn't sure what to expect. It arrived within two days!!!! I upgraded the RAM, replaced the HDD and installed Windows 11. This is unbeatable value and was the cheapest price online. Coupled with a 3-month warranty, Reboot IT are by far the best online refurbished retailer I have used. Awesome!
Great service. Product in great condition and exactly what i want. I wanted this for a specific purpose but i dont need to spend $900 on a new one.
Excellent work
exactly as described and works well , just like the staff down there. 10/10
Very happy, thank you
Just having trouble greeting it linked to the internet otherwise it’s okay.
Fair tech for price, good specs for era, serves the purpose. The black keyboard is an interesting rubber like texture clearly by design to pad the screen and avoid the keyboard touching. Screen is great. Still looking for magic formula to enable computer use in the bright bright sunshine. Keyboard taps are loud for someone who likes silent touch. The perfect PC has to exist, like build a bear.
The laptop was sold with a warning about worn keycaps. In fact they had been obviously vandalised (ex school laptops, perhaps?). The keyboard worked fine, and the rest of the laptop too. I'm using it as a file server, so I don't need the keyboard much. So very pleased, and also pleased with reboot-it's service - as always, excellent, and quick responses to any queries.
