Overview
The Aruba CX 6000 Switch Series is modern family of entry level access switches ideal for branch offices, midsize businesses, and small enterprises. Optimized for reliable, simple and secure access, the CX 6000 series provides a convenient and cost-effective wired access solution for networks supporting IoT, mobile, and cloud applications.
The CX 6000 series is based on the Aruba ASIC architecture with the programmable AOS-CX operating system used across the entire Aruba CX portfolio for a more consistent, more efficient operator experience. This fully managed series has convenient built-in uplinks with up to 370W of PoE+ to support IoT devices such as security cameras and wireless APs. A compact and fanless model is ideal for use in quiet, small work spaces.
The CX 6000 series is easy to deploy and use with flexible management choices that include Web GUI, CLI, cloud- based and on-premise Aruba Central management, so you can choose the best fit for your business and network environment. Delivering Layer 2 capabilities with enhanced access security, traffic prioritization, and IPv6 support, the CX 6000 also simplifies ownership and brings peace of mind with no switch software licensing and a Limited Lifetime Warranty.
Product Differentiators
AOS-CX - a modern software system
- The Aruba CX 6000 Switch Series is based on AOS- CX, a modern, database-driven operating system that is built on a modular Linux architecture. With the CX 6000 series, the benefits of the AOS-CX architecture is extended to small enterprise deployments providing the following unique capabilities:
- Easy access to all network configuration state information
- REST APIs for fine-grained programmability of network tasks
- A micro-services architecture that enables full integration with other workflow systems and services
- All software processes communicate with the database rather than each other, ensuring near real-time state and resiliency
Aruba ASICs - programmable innovation
- Based on over 30 years of continuous investment, Aruba’s ASICs create the basis for innovative and agile software feature advancements, unparalleled performance and deep visibility. These programmable ASICs are purpose-built to allow for a tighter integration of switch hardware and software within campus and data center architectures to optimize performance and capacity. The Aruba CX 6000 is based on the Aruba ASIC architecture.
Access layer performance
- The Aruba CX 6000 Switch Series uses internally developed Aruba ASICs that provide very low latency, increased packet buffering, and adaptive power consumption. Each switch includes the following:
- Up to 104 Gbps in non-blocking bandwidth and up to 77.3 Mpps for forwarding
- Selectable queue configurations that allow for increased performance by defining a number of queues and associated memory buffering to best meet the requirements of network applications
Management flexibility
Innovative design supports cloud-based and on-premise management, CLI and easy to use Web GUI with same hardware, eliminating rip and replace of equipment as network management needs grow.
Cloud-based Aruba Central1 provides single pane of glass, unified network operations of wired, WLAN, SD-WAN, and public cloud infrastructure.
Simplify adds, moves and changes
Reduce manual IT operation tasks around initial deployment or on-going configuration changes to accommodate adds, moves and changes with colorless ports using local user roles and local-MAC-Authentication (LMA). Instead of statically pre-configuring access ports to VLANs and maintaining the switch port to VLAN mapping, colorless ports can automatically apply the role/policy required.
Cost-effective enterprise-class access
To provide ideal deployment for branch offices, midsize businesses, and small enterprises, the CX 6000 family includes five fixed 1U models. Highlights include:
- 1U models support 24 and 48 access ports of IEEE 802.3 1GbE with four built-in 1GbE uplink SFP ports. The 24 and 48 port PoE models support up to 370W IEEE 802.3at Class 4 Power over Ethernet for up to 30W per port
- Compact and fanless model supports 12 ports of IEEE 802.3 1GbE with four uplinks (two built-in 1GbE uplink SFP ports, two built-in 1GbE ports), and 139W IEEE 802.3at Class 4 Power over Ethernet for up to 30W per port
