Hewlett Packard Enterprise CX 8100 48XF4C Ethernet Switch with 48 10GbE Ports and 40/100GbE Uplinks

The Hewlett Packard Enterprise CX 8100 48XF4C Ethernet Switch is designed to meet the demanding needs of modern campus and data center networks. With a compact 1U form factor, this switch provides high-performance connectivity for enterprise environments, supporting up to 1.76 Tbps of capacity. It features 48 line-rate Gigabit Ethernet ports with 10Gbps speeds and support for 25Gbps, 40Gbps, and 100Gbps uplink ports, ensuring robust scalability and efficient data transmission. The switch's support for optical fiber cables enables longer-distance communication between servers and network devices, making it ideal for high-bandwidth applications where reliability and speed are critical.

Built on ArubaOS-CX, a modern and database-driven operating system, the CX 8100 series simplifies complex network management tasks through automation and intuitive control. Each switch includes an active Aruba CX Foundation license at no extra cost, offering features such as high availability, dynamic segmentation, quality of service (QoS), layer 2 switching, layer 3 routing, and network security. Upgrading to the Aruba CX Advanced license unlocks additional capabilities like Aruba CX Edge Insights, providing in-depth flow capture from layer 4 to layer 7, which enhances network visibility and troubleshooting.

Management of the CX 8100 switch is streamlined via Aruba Central, a cloud-based network management platform that consolidates control over wired, wireless, SD-WAN, and cloud infrastructure. The platform supports configuration, monitoring, troubleshooting, and reporting tasks, reducing operational overhead. The Aruba Central Advanced license further enhances management with security features and AIOps, including dynamic segmentation and distributed enforcement at a global scale. The switch's black color and compact design make it suitable for various deployment environments, ensuring both aesthetic and functional integration into your existing network infrastructure.
