Detailed Specifications
HPE Aruba CX 6400 Module S0E48A - 32 × 25G + 4 × 100G, MACsec
Overview
HPE Aruba S0E48A ek modular interface card hai jo CX 6400 v2 chassis-switch ke liye banaya gaya hai. Isme 32 SFP28 ports hain, jo default mein 25 Gb pe operate karte hain, aur 4 QSFP28 ports hain jo 100 Gb uplinks ya spine links ke liye use ho sakte hain.Yeh line-card MACsec encryption ko support karta hai, jisse secure high-speed links build karne mein madad milti hai. Software-wise, minimum AOS-CX version jo support karta hai is module ko 10.13.1000 hai. Ye card large switching fabrics mein use hota hai jahan high port density aur uplink performance aur security dono zaroori hon, jaise data-center spine / aggregation ya campus core designs.
Key Features
32 × 25 Gb SFP28: Dense 25Gb connectivity on copper (or fiber) port groups.
4 × 100 Gb QSFP28 uplinks: High-bandwidth fabric interconnects.
MACsec support: Encrypts traffic on high-speed links for security.
High buffer: 32 MB packet buffer per card, to handle bursty traffic.
Extended L3 table support: Scales up host / route entries beyond standard line cards
VSX-capable: Integrates in high-availability VSX topologies.
