HPE Networking CW 2050 20-Port Gigabit + 4-Port 2.5G Smart Rate Managed Switch with 4 SFP 2.5G, Fanless
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
HPE Networking CW 2050 20p 10/100/1000BASE-T 4p Smart Rate 1/2.5GbE 4p SFP 1G/2.5G Switch (S6X69A) - Limited Lifetime Local Warranty
Fully Managed Stackable Switching for SMB and Branch Offices
The HPE Networking CW 2050 20p 10/100/1000BASE-T 4p Smart Rate 1/2.5GbE 4p SFP 1G/2.5G Switch (S6X69A) belongs to HPE's CW 2050 Switch Series, which HPE describes as the next-generation Layer 2 access switch for branch offices and small and medium-sized businesses. It provides 20 x 10/100/1000BASE-T + 4 x 1G/2.5G BASE-T (Smart Rate) + 4 x 1G/2.5G BASE-X SFP.
HPE rates this model at 80 Gbps switching capacity and 59.52 Mpps throughput, with four dedicated 1G/2.5G SFP uplinks for fibre or faster links back to the core.
Reliable Non-PoE Gigabit Access
A non-PoE model for desktops, printers, servers and other wired devices that do not need power from the switch. This model is fanless, so it runs silently in offices, classrooms and retail spaces.
Simple Management and Two-Switch IRF Stacking
Manage the switch through its Web GUI, the standard CLI or the embedded CW Dashboard at no additional cost, with HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC), SNMP, Aruba AirWave and REST API also supported. Two switches can be stacked with Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) for high availability and a single point of management.
Built-In Security and Enterprise Layer 2 Features
HPE lists secure boot, multi-layer ACLs, IEEE 802.1X authentication, encrypted access over SSHv2, SSL, SNMPv3 and TLS, and control plane policing for DoS protection. Layer 2 features include IEEE 802.1Q VLANs, STP/RSTP/MSTP/PVST+/RPVST+, link aggregation, IGMP and MLD snooping, LLDP and classifier-based QoS, plus static IPv4 and IPv6 routing.

Compatibility & Software Support
What It Is Suited To
Small and medium-sized businesses, branch offices, retail stores, clinics and schools that want a fully managed, stackable Gigabit access switch with 2.5G uplinks, without the cost or complexity of a campus core platform.
Management Software
Manage locally through the Web GUI, CLI or embedded CW Dashboard at no extra cost, or from HPE IMC, Aruba AirWave, SNMP managers or the REST API. The 1G/2.5G SFP uplinks accept HPE Networking SFP transceivers such as the X120 1G SFP range; ask us to confirm the right optic for your fibre run.
