HPE S0G98A Aruba CX 6300 Ethernet Switch

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.
