HPE R0X45A ? 12-Port 40/100 GbE QSFP28 Line Card
Overview? ?
The HPE R0X45A is a high-capacity line card designed for the HPE/Aruba CX 6400 modular chassis family, intended for network engineers who require high-speed uplink or spine-level bandwidth. If you?re operating in a campus core, aggregation layer or compact data-centre rack and need to push fiber links of 40 Gb or 100 Gb to adjacent switches or network fabrics, this module plugs into the chassis to provide 12? QSFP28 ports capable of 40/100 Gb each. It fits inside the CX 6400 chassis (for example the 6405 or 6410 chassis) and benefits from the overall chassis management, high availability, cooling & power infrastructure. The module is ideal in environments where you need more than standard uplinks?this gives you dedicated high-speed ports in one module slot for backhaul, spine interconnect or dense uplink aggregation.
Key Features
- Twelve QSFP28 ports rated for 40 Gb or 100 Gb operation?enabling high-bandwidth uplinks in a modular chassis.
- Designed specifically for the Aruba CX 6400 series chassis?ensures full compatibility with platform features and chassis resources.
- Suited for spine/aggregation or uplink roles in enterprise or data-centre networks rather than access-layer device ports.
- Enables consolidation: instead of separate switches for high-speed uplinks, you utilise the chassis with this module to centralise high-speed fabrics.
- High performance: supports 100 Gb ports per slot and built to operate in rich switching environments with substantial throughput demands.
