HPE Aruba CX 6300F S0G98A – 24 × 1 Gb PoE+ + 4 × 50 Gb SFP56 Layer‑3 Switch
Overview
The HPE Aruba CX 6300F (S0G98A) is a compact, high-efficiency 1U switch ideal for access or distribution layers. It provides 24 Gigabit RJ-45 PoE+ ports to power devices like access points, IP phones, or cameras, plus 4 SFP56 ports that support up to 50 Gb links — useful for high-speed uplinks or stacking.Thanks to Aruba’s Virtual Switching Framework (VSF), you can stack up to 10 of these switches into a single logical unit, simplifying management while scaling out. The switch leverages the Gen‑7 ASIC architecture to deliver 448 Gbps switching throughput, handling typical access-layer traffic with good headroom.Running Aruba’s OS‑CX, it supports full Layer‑3 routing (BGP, OSPF, VRF), MACsec encryption, and advanced telemetry via the Aruba Network Analytics Engine. Fixed power supply and fixed fans make it low-maintenance yet reliable for enterprise environments.
