Product Description
Overview
- The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300 Switch Series is a modern, flexible, and intelligent family of AOS-CX stackable switches ideal for access, aggregation, and data center top-of-rack (TOR) deployments. With a cloud-centric design that combines a fully programmable OS with the HPE Aruba Networwing Analytics Engine, the CX 6300 extends industry-leading monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities to the access layer. Support of HPE Aruba Networking NetEdit and HPE CX Mobile App verify that configurations are flawless and easy to deploy. A powerful HPE Aruba Gen7 ASIC architecture delivers fast, non-blocking performance, meaning your network is ready for tomorrow’s unpredictable demands. HPE Virtual Stacking Framework (VSF) allows for stacking of up to 10 switches, providing scale and simplified management. This flexible series has built-in highspeed uplinks and supports high density IEEE 802.3bt high power PoE with HPE Smart Rate multi-gigabit Ethernet for high speed APs and IoT devices.
Features
- The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300 Switch Series delivers unparalleled visibility with built-in analytics for real-time monitoring and troubleshooting to help fix problems faster. The HPE Analytics Engine (NAE) automatically interrogates and analyzes events that can impact network health.
- Advanced telemetry and automation provide the ability to easily identify and troubleshoot network, system, application and security related issues easily, through the use of Python agents and REST APIs.
- The Time Series Database (TSDB) stores configuration and operational state data, making it available to quickly resolve network issues.
- HPE Aruba Networking NetEdit support provides automation that allows for rapid network-wide changes, and helps ensure policy conformance post network updates.
- The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300 Switch Series uses a fully distributed architecture with HPE Aruba Gen7 ASICs that deliver very low latency, increased packet buffering, and adaptive power consumption. All switching and routing are wire-speed to meet the demands of bandwidth-intensive applications.
- HPE Aruba Networking 10/25 and 40/100G CX switches can be deployed as part of these solutions and is often designed into these integrated solutions along with HPE ProLiant DL/DX servers, HPE SimpliVity, Nimble, Synergy, Cray Shasta, Cray ClusterStor, Superdome Flex and HPE GreenLake.
- These ready-to-deploy, integrated IT data center solutions help simplify and speed IT service delivery while reducing the time, risk, and expertise needed to deploy complex solutions.
- Use these new tracking SKUs (R9FXXX) when HPE Aruba Networking CX switches are included in HPE integrated and mixed compute, storage and networking configuration and deployments.
- HPE Aruba Networking Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) allows you to quickly grow your network using high performance front plane stacking. Four built-in QSFP28 ports support speeds of 1/10/25/50GbE (50GbE for DAC connectivity only) for a total of up to 200 Gbps of stacking throughput per switch.
- The S0E91A switch model also supports QSFP28 uplink speeds of 40 GbE and 100 GbE for up to 400 Gbps of stacking throughput.
- Deploy wireless access points and IoT devices with HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300 models that offer high density HPE Smart Rate multi-gigabit Ethernet with 90W PoE on every port for a total of 2880W of PoE.
- The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300 Switch Series supports Aruba Dynamic Segmentation that automatically applies and enforces user, device, and application-aware policies on Aruba wired and wireless infrastructures.
- Automated device profiling, role-based access control, and Layer 7 firewall features deliver enhanced visibility and performance for a better overall experience for both IT and end-users alike.
- Switch-to-switch tunnels enable scalable multi-tenancy support with VXLAN to VRF mapping, while allowing policy application via user roles.
- HPE Aruba Networking offer customers highly differentiated pre-engineered IT infrastructure solutions that span a wide variety HPE Compute, HPE Storage, HPE Networking that span virtualization, vSAN, HCI, HPC, MCS, Microsoft, SAP HANA, Vmware, Nutanix application and IaaS service offerings.
- HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300L stackable, high-performance Layer 2-only switches available for customers needing scalability, high-capacity, and cost-effective connectivity in the access layer
