The Aruba CX 6300 switch range is a modern, flexible and intelligent range of AOS-CX stackable switches ideal for enterprise access and aggregation. With a cloud-centric design that combines a fully programmable operating system with Aruba's network analytics engine, the Aruba CX 6300 system extends the industry's monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities to the access layer.An Aruba Gen7 ASIC architecture delivers fast, non-blocking performance, meaning your network is ready for tomorrow's unpredictable demands. Aruba's Virtual Stacking Framework (VSF) technology enables stacking of up to 10 switches, ensuring scalability and simplified management. This flexible range integrates 1/10/25/50 GbE uplinks with maximum transmission speed, and supports IEEE 802.3bt high-power PoE with HPE Smart Rate multi-gigabit Ethernet technology, for high-speed access points and IoT devices from existing cabling.
Automation and analytics
The Aruba CX 6300 switch range offers unrivalled visibility with built-in analytics for real-time monitoring and troubleshooting to resolve problems faster. Aruba's Network Analysis Engine (NAE) automatically interrogates and analyzes events that could affect network integrity. Advanced telemetry and automation features make it easy to identify and resolve network, system, application and security issues, using Python agents and REST APIs. The Time Series Database (TSDB) stores configuration and operating status data, enabling rapid resolution of network problems.
Power and performance
The Aruba CX 6300 switch range uses a fully distributed architecture with Aruba Gen7 ASICs offering ultra-low latency, increased packet buffering and adaptive power consumption. All switching and routing tasks are performed at wire speed, to meet the requirements of bandwidth-hungry applications. Deploy wireless access points and IoT devices with Aruba CX 6300 models featuring high-density HPE Smart Rate multi-gigabit Ethernet technology, with 60 W of PoE at each port, for a total of 2,880 W of PoE.
Smarter segmentation
The Aruba CX 6300 switch range supports Aruba Dynamic Segmentation, which automatically applies and enforces user, device and application policies across Aruba wired and wireless infrastructures. Automated device profiling, role-based access control and Layer 7 firewall capabilities deliver enhanced visibility and performance for an improved overall experience for both IT and end users. Inter-switch tunnels enable scalable support for shared architecture, with VXLAN-VRF mapping, while allowing policy enforcement via user roles.
