HPER8N89-61021

ArubaCX 6000 12G Class 4 PoE Switch(12-Port, 139 W)

The HPER8N89-61021 (ArubaCX 6000 Series) is a reliable and fully managed Layer-2 Gigabit Ethernet Switchtwelve Class 4 PoE+ ports with a total PoE budget of 139 W. Ideal for branch offices, classrooms, retail, and other environments where silent operation is key, this fanless 1 U rack-mount Switchcombines low-power hardware with powerful AOS-CX software. Equipped with built-in uplinks (2× gigabit copper and 2× 1 Gb SFP), it supports endpoints like Wi-Fi APs, IP cameras, and IoT devices without external PoE injectors. It supports Layer-2 functions, IPv6, ACLs, QoS, sFlow, basic static routing, and zero-touch provisioning for rapid deployment and simplified management.

Features

Based on the ArubaASIC architecture and running AOS-CX, the CX 6000 delivers reliable performance with a 32 Gb/s Switchcapacity and ~23.8 Mpps forwarding rate, and wire-speed uplinks without bottlenecks. The dual-core ARM Cortex-A9 CPU (1.016 GHz), 4 GB DDR3 RAM, and 16 GB flash storage support stable operation and future-ready OS updates. With silent, fanless design and compact dimensions (~25.4 × 25.5 cm), it's ideal for noise-sensitive environments ([turn0search1]turn0search4). Features include 12 PoE+ RJ-45 ports (IEEE 802.3af/at, Class 4) each supporting up to 30 W, delivering a total of 139 W power×enough for multiple access points or cameras. The two SFP ports and two additional copper uplinks provide flexible aggregation options. Full Layer-2 functionality includes VLANs, LACP, STP/RSTP/MSTP, DHCP Snooping, ACLs, LLDP, multicast IGMPv2/v3 and MLD snooping, plus IPv6 and static routing support ([turn0search1]turn0search3).

Advanced Options

Management is flexible: CLI, web GUI, ArubaNetEdit, RESTful APIs, and ArubaCentral (availability pending release). Zero Touch Provisioning with colorless ports enables easy onboarding. Security is enforced via SSHv2, RADIUS, TACACS+, SSL, and TPM support. Adaptive power management and enterprise-grade OS simplify operations while reducing support complexity ([turn0search4]turn0search9). With a compact footprint and 4.19 kg weight, the Switchconsumes only ~21.9 W idle (~45 W max without PoE) and delivers 139 W to endpoints safely. Operating down to 0 °C and up to 45 °C ensures functionality in diverse deployment scenarios. Arubalifetime warranty (new units) enhances long-term confidence in deployment.

Reliability & Performance

This Switchis engineered for reliability, featuring a fanless design that minimizes maintenance points and noise×especially useful in open offices or classrooms. The fixed PoE+ ports deliver consistent power to devices like Arubaaccess points or VoIP phones. Low latency (~2.3 µs at 1 Gb/s) and non-blocking forwarding ensure smooth traffic even under full load ([turn0search1]turn0search4).AOS-CX delivers stability and modern networking capability: VLAN support, ACLs, IGMP/MLD snooping, QoS, and static IPv4/IPv6 routing. Zero Touch Provisioning and NetEdit streamline configuration across multiple devices. Integrated REST APIs and eventual support for Aruba Central enable scalable management. Robust security features like SSHv2, RADIUS, TACACS+, and TPM support meet enterprise standards ([turn0search4]turn0search3).
