Embrace modern connectivity with enhanced security in a single, cloud-delivered solution and empower IT teams to control all user and application access, regardless of location, device, or network.

HPE Aruba Networking Beacons leverage Bluetooth Low-Energy (BLE) technology to power indoor location and wayfinding, and proximity-aware push notifications at enterprises, stadiums, hospitals and other public venues. The ability to customize the placement of beacons ensures a highly engaged customer experience.

These small, low-power wireless transmitters broadcast radio signals at regular intervals that can be heard and interpreted by iOS and Android devices using HPE Aruba Networking Wi-Fi access points. Purpose-built applications can be creating using our software development kits (SDKs).

The HPE FlexNetwork 5600 HI Switch Series delivers superior performance using Multigigabit, PoE8, MACsec, AES 256 encryption, link flexibility, and scalability at the access layer of medium and large enterprise campus networks. Additional modules can be included for increased capacity. This series offers improved resiliency with DRNI and IRF, better reliability and performance in user Quality of Service (QoS), enhanced security with hardware-based MACsec and AAA authentication, impressive efficiency with dual redundant power supplies, embedded network management using Smart MC and enhanced network visibility using IMC.

HPE Networking Comware Switch Series 5720 is designed to cater to diverse customer needs. This cost-effective access switch offers hybrid SFP+ and 10GBASE-T options, along with multigigabit support on 10GBASE-T ports, allowing scalability from 10GbE SFP+ to 100G QSFP28.
These data center leaf / access layer switches come with MACsec support and 10GBASE-T additional modules. Features such as distributed resilient network interconnect (DRNI) and HPE Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) enhance network resiliency while redundant pluggable power supplies provide a dynamic and highly available network.
Moreover, these switches support HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC), which delivers a consistent network manageability experience. Streamline network management processes for greater efficiency through centralized configuration, compliance, policy management, monitoring, and troubleshooting.

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 9300 Switch Series provides 25.6Tbps, 1U fixed configuration that supports 32 ports of 100/400GbE. This series is designed to provide flexible, cost-effective, high-density 400GbE for servers, storage, and intra-fabric connectivity.

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 9300 Switch Series protects enterprises’ investment as they as they transition server farms from 10GbE and 25GbE to 100GbE/400GbE EVPN-VXLAN spine configurations, with reduced power and a smaller footprint. It supports large data center pods of up to 6,000 x 25G servers or up to 2,000 x 100G servers. This is an significant jump in scaling/density over current HPE Aruba Networking CX 8325-32C, which scales to 700 x 25G servers.

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 (VSX) for a high availability solution ideal for enterprise campus and data center deployments. The CX 8320 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 is based on HPE Aruba Networking CX Switch Operating System (AOS-CX), 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.

The HPE Networking Comware Switch Series 5520 HI delivers superior performance, high availability and manageability with advanced features at the access and aggregation layer of medium and large enterprise networks.

These switches deliver faster performance and advanced L3 features with support for larger ARP/MAC tables and Longest Prefix Match (LPM). VXLAN and EVPN enable greater scalability. Support for Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP), Equal-Cost Multipath (ECMP) and Bi-directional Forwarding Detection (BFD) provide resiliency. Intelligent Resilient framework (IRF) ensures high availability. Support for IPv4/IPv6, OpenFlow, and MPLS/VPLS features for investment protection with an easy transition from IPv4 to IPv6 networks.

These switches also include SmartMC at no additional cost, and when combined with Intelligent Management Center (IMC), it provides both embedded network management and enhanced network visibility.

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 8360 v2 Switch Series are designed for next-generation core and aggregation layer of campuses, as well as virtual and highly dynamic data center environments. Provide up to 4.8 Tbps switching capacity, with line-rate Gigabit Ethernet interfaces including support for HPE Smart Rate (1/2.5, 5 Gbps), 10 Gbps, 25 Gbps, 40 Gbps, 50 Gbps, and 100 Gbps connectivity in a compact 1U form factor.  

These switches deliver a fantastic investment for customers wanting to migrate from older 1 GbE/10 GbE to faster 25 GbE, or from 10 GbE/40 GbE uplinks to 50/100 GbE ports. In addition, the 48 and 32 x 25G port CX 8360 models support low-density MACsec ports and enable secured connectivity at 10 GbE and 25 GbE over unsecured domains. MACsec is also supported on 2 high-speed 40/100 G ports on the CX 8360 48-port model.
