The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300 Switch Series is a modern, flexible, and intelligent family of stackable switches ideal for access, aggregation, and data center top-of-rack (TOR). With its cloud-native design, fully programmable operating system, and the HPE Aruba Networking CX Network Analytics Engine, the CX 6300 Series extends industry-leading monitoring and troubleshooting to the access layer. Support for HPE Aruba Networking Switch Multi-Edit Software and the CX mobile app verify that configurations are flawless and easy to deploy.

A powerful ASIC architecture delivers fast, non-blocking performance, ready for tomorrow's unpredictable demands. HPE Aruba Networking Virtual Stacking Framework (VSF) allows for stacking of up to 10 switches, providing scale and simplified management. This flexible series has built-in high speed uplinks and supports high density IEEE 802.3bt high power PoE with HPE Smart Rate multi-gigabit Ethernet for APs and IoT devices.

Features

High Performance and Power

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300 Switch Series uses a fully distributed architecture with Gen7 ASICs that deliver very low latency, increased packet buffering, and adaptive power consumption. All switching and routing are wirespeed to meet the demands of bandwidth-intensive applications.

HPE Aruba Networking Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) allows you to quickly grow your network using high performance front plane stacking. Four built-in uplinks support speeds of up to 10, 25, 50, and 100 GbE for a total of 200 to 400 Gbps of stacking throughput per switch.

Deploy wireless access points and IoT devices with CX 6300 models that offer high density HPE Smart Rate Multi-Gigabit Ethernet with Class 4 (30W), Class 6 (60W), and Class 8 (90W) PoE on each port (720W, 1440W, and 2880W max PoE budget options).

CX 6300L stackable, high-performance Layer 2-only switches with static routing available for customers needing scalability, high-capacity, and cost-effective connectivity in the access layer.

The S0E91A switch model supports QSFP28 uplink speeds of 40 GbE and 100 GbE for up to 400 Gbps of stacking throughput.
