The CX 9300-32D switch supports large data center PODS of up to 16834 x 25GbE servers or up to 8192 x 100GbE servers when using 4 x 100G SN transceivers.

HPE Aruba Networking CX 10000 Switch Series, industry's first DPU-enabled switches, delivers a flexible and innovative approach to address the security performance, agility, and scalability demands of both traditional enterprise data centers and emerging distributed, edge and co-located centers of data.

The switch series is a category of switches that combines the best-of-breed network operating system, HPE Aruba Networking CX Switch Operating System (AOS-CX), for data center, campus, and edge in addition to the fully programmable DPUs. This allows the switches to deliver software-defined services inline, at scale, with wire-rate performance and orders of magnitude scale and performance improvements over traditional L2/L3 switches at a fraction of their TCO. This allows the flexibility to enable service delivery, when deployed as access, leaf top-of-rack (ToR), or end-of-row (EoR) in a data center, and potentially in the aggregation layer in campus or edge data center designs.

The EX4000 switch line puts next-gen, AI-Native innovation within reach for more enterprises. Providing lightning-fast boot up times for L2/L3 deployments, the cloud-native, Wi-Fi 7-enabled EX4000 redefines industry benchmarks for everything from access layer deployments in branch and remote offices, in retail, K-12, and more.

Multiple fixed form factors are available in 8, 12-, 24-, and 48-port configurations, supporting both PoE and non-PoE and enabling 1G and multigigabit capabilities. Choose between 8-port or 12-port fanless models that give you noise-free setups for use in close proximity to users. And tap into the power of industry-leading AIOps to unlock simplified, compromise-free switching at the edge.

With Juniper® Wired Assurance, you can streamline the onboarding, configuration, and management of EX4000 switches to ensure exceptional connected device experiences. By transmitting rich telemetry to the Mist platform’s cloud, EX4000 switches leverage Marvis® AI to simplify operations and provide actionable, client-level insights in real time. And rest easy knowing Zero Trust switching is just clicks away when you pair EX4000 switches with Juniper Access Assurance.

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 8320 Switch Series provides industry‑leading line rate 1/10GbE (SFP/SFP+ and 10GBASE‑T) and 40GbE connectivity in a compact 1U form factor. It provides up to 2.5 Tbps of switching capacity with redundant power and fans combined with HPE Aruba Networking Virtual Switching Extension for a high availability solution ideal for enterprise campus and data center deployments. The CX 8320 series also serves as a top-of-rack (ToR) switch for data centers needing 10GbE connectivity to servers and 40GbE to the spine.

The CX 8320 series is based on HPE Aruba Networking CX Switch Operating System, a modern, database‑driven operating system that automates and simplifies many critical and complex network tasks. A built‑in time series database enables customers and developers to utilize software scripts for historical troubleshooting, as well as analysis of past trends. This helps predict and avoid future problems due to scale, security, and performance bottlenecks.
