Introduction
The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6200 Switch Series is a next-gen family of stackable access switches ideal for enterprise branch offices, campuses, and SMB networks. With a cloud-centric design that combines a fully programmable OS with the HPE Aruba Networking CX Network Analytics Engine, this switch family extends industry-leading deployment, monitoring, and troubleshooting to the access layer. Make your network ready for tomorrow’s unpredictable demands with a powerful Gen7 ASIC architecture to deliver fast, non-blocking performance. HPE Aruba Networking Virtual Stacking Framework (VSF) allows for stacking of up to 8 switches, providing scale and simplified management. This series includes fixed (CX 6200F) and modular (CX 6200M) switches with built-in high speed uplinks and up to 1440W of PoE to support IoT devices such as security cameras and wireless APs.
What is new supporting point:
Up to 384 ports of scalability with 8-member VSF stacking. 24 and 48-port fixed and modular switches can stack together with easy to deploy through the CX Mobile app.
Models include modular switches with 1/10 GbE uplinks, LRM, and MACSec 256, fixed switches with either 1/10 GbE SFP+ or 1 GbE SFP uplinks, and options that support 30W to 60W of PoE per port.
Intelligent monitoring and visibility via HPE Aruba Networking CX Network Analytics Engine. HPE Aruba Networking Switch Multi-Edit Software support for automation, configuration and verification.
Dynamic Segmentation enables secure access for users and IoT.
Flexible, modular switch models support hot-swappable, redundant power supplies and fans for enhanced resiliency.
Enterprise-class connectivity with support for ACLs, robust QoS, and common protocols such as static and Access OSPF routing.
