- Fully managed, stackable Layer 2 switch series with 24‑ and 48‑port non‑PoE and PoE models, supporting IRF stacking with up to two switches:
- Four dedicated 1G/2.5G SFP uplink ports:
- 24‑port non‑PoE model includes four HPE Smart Rate 1G/2.5G ports; 24‑port PoE model includes four PoE++ 1G/2.5G ports delivering up to 100 W per port:
- Powerful PoE provides up to 420 W (35 W per port) to support APs, IP phones, surveillance cameras, door locks, and other IoT devices:
- Fanless design on the 24‑port non‑PoE model for acoustically sensitive environments:
- Flexible, simplified management with default Web GUI, SmartMC management dashboard, CLI, SNMP, and REST API for integration with customer dashboards:
- Enterprise class-reliable performance: The CW 2050 series includes four models with 24 and 48 access ports and four built‑in 1G/2.5G SFP uplinks for non‑blocking performance. The 24‑port non‑PoE model includes four HPE Smart Rate 1G/2.5G ports, and the 24‑port PoE model includes four PoE++ 1G/2.5G ports delivering up to 100 W per port. | It supports up to 116 Gbps switching capacity and up to 86 Mpps performance. | Two‑switch Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) stacking simplifies network management and provides high availability with uninterrupted Layer 2 switching and Layer 3 forwarding. | It supports Layer 3 static routing and IPv6. | With industry‑leading 6 kV service‑port surge‑protection technology, the HPE Networking CW 2050 Switch Series helps reduce surge‑strike risks in demanding environments such as construction sites.
- Powerful PoE options for Wi‑Fi 7 APs and demanding IoT devices: The 24‑port and 48‑port PoE models provide power budgets of 420 W and 410 W, respectively, at 35 W per port, supporting Wi‑Fi 7 APs, IP cameras, video phones, and other devices without the need for separate power adapters or cabling. | The 24‑port model includes four PoE++ ports delivering up to 100 W per port for added flexibility and investment protection.
- Simple and flexible management: The HPE Networking CW 2050 Switch Series includes a default Web GUI and can be managed alongside other CW switches with an embedded web‑based dashboard designed to simplify deployment and centralize management. | Advanced management options include HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC), command‑line interface (CLI), SNMP managers, and REST APIs for integration with existing customer dashboards.
- Comprehensive security control: The CW 2050 series provides multi‑layered access protection with granular ACLs (IPv4/IPv6, VLAN, port‑based), identity‑driven policies, and authentication including 802.1X, MAC, Web, RADIUS, and TACACS+, as well as Guest VLAN detection and dual‑NIC detection with IMC. | It supports encrypted access using SSHv2, SSL, SNMPv3, and TLS, along with role‑based privileges and audit logging. | Secure Boot verifies digital signatures to help prevent unauthorized or malicious software from loading during startup. | Threat‑prevention features include Control Plane Policing (DoS protection), ARP and DHCP protection, ICMP throttling, port security, and source‑port filtering. | Network isolation features include Private VLANs for user‑to‑user traffic separation.
