HPE Aruba CX 8360‑16Y2C v2 (R9G11A) – 16×25G + 2×100G Fixed L3 Switch

Overview

HPE Aruba CX 8360‑16Y2C v2 (R9G11A) ek 1U Layer‑3 switch hai jo data‑center ya campus aggregation ke liye banaya gaya hai. Isme 16 ports SFP28 hain jo 1G, 10G, ya 25G speeds handle kar sakte hain, aur 2 QSFP28 ports hain jo 40 Gb ya 100 Gb uplinks provide karte hain.2Yeh switch 1.2 Tbps switching capacity rakhta hai, jo typical high-throughput access aggregation ya ToR fabric mein kaafi hai Aruba OS‑CX ke zariye ise VSX (active‑active), L3 routing (BGP, OSPF, VRF), aur programmable automation (REST API, Python) ke saath operate kiya ja sakta hai.1Power aur reliability ki baat karein to, R9G11A mein dual hot-swappable power supplies aur 3 ya 5 fans ka design hai (datasheet mein cooling module support milta hai).
