HPE Aruba CX 6400 Switch Series R0X26C – Modular Layer 3 Gigabit and 10-Gigabit Ethernet Switch for Enterprise Networks

The HPE Aruba CX 6400 Switch Series, model R0X26C, offers a modern, flexible, and intelligent networking solution designed for enterprise campus and data center environments. Built with high-performance hardware and a fully programmable Aruba OS-CX, this switch series provides robust support for high-speed data traffic, IoT, mobile, and cloud applications. Its modular design, available in a 7U rack-mountable chassis, enables scalable deployment with options for 5 or 10 slots, offering non-blocking throughput of up to 2.8 Tbps per slot, making it ideal for access, aggregation, and core network roles. The series incorporates a powerful Aruba Gen7 ASIC architecture that ensures industry-leading performance, security, and future-ready programmability. Features like BGP, EVPN, VXLAN, VRF, and OSPF support advanced routing and segmentation, while high availability is guaranteed through industry-leading VSX redundancy, redundant power supplies, and fans. The switch supports full density HPE Smart Rate multigigabit modules with PoE power up to 60W, enabling high-speed, high-power connectivity for Wi-Fi 6 Access Points and IoT devices using existing cabling infrastructure. High-speed interfaces support 1GbE, 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, and 100GbE ports, with future software updates to enable 50GbE transceivers, providing versatile connectivity options for diverse network needs. Integrated Aruba Network Analytics Engine offers comprehensive monitoring, visibility, and troubleshooting, simplifying network management and reducing downtime. Manageability is streamlined through Aruba Central's single pane of glass, allowing centralized control across wired, wireless, and WAN environments. Additionally, Aruba NetEdit automates configuration and verification tasks to streamline deployment and maintenance. Aruba Dynamic Segmentation extends security and policy consistency across wired and wireless networks, ensuring secure, seamless access for users and IoT devices. The R0X26C switch from Hewlett Packard Enterprise combines high performance, advanced features, and ease of management to meet the demanding requirements of modern enterprise networks.
