HPE Aruba Networking CX 9300 Switch Series

Fixed configuration, 32 port 100/400GbE switch designed to provide flexible, high-density networking for servers, storage, and intra-fabric connectivity.
 

High performance 400GbE data center switch

• Simplify your IT operations with AOS-CX

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 9300 Switch Series is based on AOS-CX, a modern, database-driven operating system that automates and simplifies many critical and complex network tasks. Delivering complete network configuration and assurance, Aruba AOS-CX key innovations are its microservices-style modular architecture, REST APIs, Python-scripting capabilities, and the HPE Aruba Networking Network Analytics Engine.

• Accelerate IT provisioning

HPE Aruba Networking Fabric Composer, a smart, software-defined orchestration solution, simplifies operations, increases network speed, and enhances overall infrastructure provisioning.

• Unparalleled visibility and analytics

Get real-time monitoring and troubleshooting with HPE Aruba Networking Network Analytics Engine (NAE). Embedded in every HPE Aruba Networking CX switch, NAE provides the necessary compute and storage to analyze any event that could impact network health. Offering intelligent pre-processing of data, it can turn raw telemetry into actionable insights.

• Business and network resiliency

HPE Aruba Networking Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) takes a new and innovative approach to solving high availability challenges by combining the best aspects of existing HA technologies such as multi-chassis link aggregation (MC-LAG) and equal-cost, multi-path (ECMP) routing. Providing a distributed and redundant architecture, it’s highly available, with minimal-to-zero traffic loss, even during software upgrades.

• Future proof your enterprise network infrastructure

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 9300 Switch serves the needs of the next generation leaf and spine data center networking easing the transition from 10GbE and 25GbE to 100GbE/400GbE.
