Switches

The past several decades in networking have been defined by static, closed networking solutions designed for the client-server era. The Aruba 8320 Switch Series, a campus core and aggregation switch, is a game-changing solution that offers an innovative approach to dealing with the demands of the mobile, cloud and IoT era. The Aruba 8320 is based on ArubaOS-CX, a modern software system that automates and simplifies critical and complex network tasks, delivers enhanced fault tolerance and facilitates zero-service disruption during planned or unplanned control-plane events. The key innovations in ArubaOS-CX are its micro-services style modular architecture, REST APIs, Python scripting capabilities and the Aruba Network Analytics Engine. The Aruba 8320 Switch Series provides line rate 10GbE and 40GbE in a compact 1U form factor and together with the modular Aruba 8400 Switch, rounds out the Aruba Mobile First switching portfolio with an enterprise core and aggregation solution.

The Aruba 8325 switch serves as both a campus (core and aggregation) and data center (Top of Rack) switch. This game-changing solution offers an innovative approach to dealing with network demands in the mobile, cloud and IoT era. The Aruba 8325 is based on ArubaOS-CX, a modern software system that automates and simplifies critical and complex network tasks, delivers enhanced fault tolerance and facilitates zero-service disruption during planned or unplanned control-plane events. The key innovations in ArubaOS-CX are its microservices style modular architecture, REST APIs, Python scripting capabilities and the Aruba Network Analytics Engine. The Aruba 8325 Switch Series provides line rate 1GbE, 10GbE, 25GbE, and 40GbE in a compact 1U form factor.

The HPE OfficeConnect 1420 Switch Series delivers cost effective gigabit Ethernet (1GbE) connectivity offering small businesses 10 times the performance of Fast Ethernet with unmanaged plug-and-play simplicity. The series includes nine models, all with gigabit performance and a choice of key features including PoE+ for powering IP devices, Fiber and 10G uplinks for connectivity to servers and storage.

All models support silent fanless operation, automated features for hands off operation and low power consumption. They come with limited lifetime warranty and 24X7 phone support for 90 days

The HPE OfficeConnect 1405 Switch Series is a plug-and-play unmanaged fixed-port Layer 2 switch designed for small offices. These switches are preconfigured with connections using low-cost Ethernet copper cabling. They are Class B certified, energy efficient and quiet. They support administration-friendly features such as auto-negotiation. Designed for high reliability, long life, and low power consumption, they are ideal for businesses concerned with total cost of ownership.

The HPE OfficeConnect 1920S Switch Series, is designed for small businesses that require enhanced performance to support bandwidth-demanding applications. They are ideal for environments that require advanced features for granular control and where smart-managed flexibility is a must for easy network configuration and management. The switches are advanced smart-managed fixed configuration Gigabit switches that are optimized for small business price/performance. They offer 8-, 24- and 48-port configurations, choice of PoE+ and non-PoE+ models, some include SFP slots for fiber connectivity

The HPE FlexFabric 5900CP Switch Series provides a converged, top-of-rack, data center switch architecture that offers wire once for FCoE converged environments. With 48 converged ports that support 1/10GbE and 4/8 FC, the FlexFabric 5900CP delivers versatile convergence for connecting FC, iSCSI and FC SANs.
Resilience and ease of management come hand–in-hand with the FlexFabric 5900CP. While IRF reduces management complexities by up to 88%, it also delivers <50 msec convergence time. You can rely on the FlexFabric 5900CP to lower TCO, while delivering business resilience and high availability.

The HPE 5900 Switch Series are low-latency 1/10GbE data center top-of-rack (ToR) switches. Perfect for deployment at server access layer in large and medium sized enterprises. These switches may also be used in campus core/distribution layers where higher performance 40GbE connectivity is required with 10GbE links. Virtualized applications and server-to-server traffic require ToR switches that meet the needs for higher-performance server connectivity, convergence, virtual environment support, and low-latency. Optional Intelligent Management Center (IMC) Software Platform for network management.
