The Aruba CX 4100i Switch Series is a modern family of ruggedized Ethernet switches ideal for connecting IoT, access points, and user devices in harsh environments. Created for high performance, reliable, and access with enhanced security, the Aruba CX 4100i switches provide versatile deployment options for enterprise networks extending beyond carpeted areas to challenging outdoor and industrial spaces.
Based on the programmable AOS-CX operating system used across the Aruba CX portfolio, this IP30 ruggedized series helps deliver a more consistent, more efficient operator experience. This Layer 2 series has convenient built-in high speed uplinks, supports both 30W and 60W PoE, and is ready for deployment with fan less 12 port DIN mount and 24 port 1U rack mount models. With robust QoS, support for static routing, and IPv6, the Aruba CX 4100i also simplifies ownership with no switch software licensing requirements.
The HPE FlexNetwork 7500X Switch Series delivers versatile, multi-layered, high performance, modular switches for enterprise LAN edge, aggregation and core layers.
It offers 1/10/40/100GbE connectivity with PoE/PoE+ models to meet both existing and future requirements. Higher switching bandwidth (480Gbps/slot) and L2/L3 routing services support mission-critical environments. Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) and Ethernet VPN (BGP EVPN) offer greater scalability and better utilization of available network paths. Application telemetry provides real time switch capacity and utilization. Support for IPv4/IPv6, MPLS/VPLS features provide investment protection and an easy transition from IPv4 to IPv6 networks. HPE Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) enables flatter and more agile networks.
HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) provides a single view of the entire network. Ease of maintenance is enabled with Graceful Insertion and Removal (GIR) and In Service Software Update (ISSU).
The past several decades in networking have been defined by static, closed networking solutions designed for the client-server era.
