HPE S0F81A Aruba CX 9300 Ethernet Switch 32 ports

The HPE S0F81A is a high-density, top-of-rack (ToR) or leaf switch engineered for modern data center fabrics. As a member of the Aruba CX 9300S Switch Series, this Layer 3 platform is designed to meet the intensive bandwidth and low-latency demands of hyperscale virtualization, cloud-native applications, and high-performance storage environments. It provides a powerful solution for organizations scaling their infrastructure from 10/25GbE to 100GbE and 400GbE server connectivity and inter-fabric links. This switch is built to handle the rigorous east-west traffic patterns found in today's data centers. Its architecture supports advanced features like EVPN-VXLAN, enabling the creation of scalable and secure network overlays essential for multi-tenant cloud environments and large enterprise networks. The combination of high-speed ports allows for flexible deployment as a high-performance 100GbE leaf or a compact spine switch, offering significant investment protection. The S0F81A operates on AOS-CX, a modern, database-driven operating system that automates and simplifies complex network tasks. Its compact 1U form factor includes front-to-back airflow, redundant power supplies, and hot-swappable fan trays, ensuring high availability. Management is streamlined through tools like Aruba Fabric Composer, which simplifies leaf-spine network provisioning and day-to-day operations across the entire data center infrastructure.
