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.

HPE InfoSight for Servers combines the machine learning and predictive analytics of HPE InfoSight with the health and performance monitoring of Active Health System (AHS) and HPE Integrated Lights Out (iLO) to optimize performance and predict and prevent problems. HPE InfoSight for Servers nearly eliminates wasted time and headaches by transforming how infrastructure is managed and supported. AHS is like a “flight recorder” for your server that provides continuous, proactive health monitoring and recording thousands of system parameters and diagnostic telemetry data 24x7 on the server. HPE InfoSight for Servers analyzes the telemetry data from AHS to derive insights from the behaviors of the install base to provide recommendations to resolve problems and improve performance. iLO Amplifier Pack functions as an on-premise aggregator and transmitter for HPE InfoSight for servers.
