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). It features a cloud-native design and fully programmable operating system (OS). The CX 6300 delivers advanced monitoring and troubleshooting with capabilities such as a real-time network analytics engine, HPE Aruba Networking Switch Multi-Edit Software and flexible deployment options to implement and validate network configurations.
A powerful Gen7 ASIC architecture delivers fast, non-blocking performance for AI, Wi-Fi 7, and Internet of Things (IoT) requirements. 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.
