HPE 6100 Ethernet Switch
PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The Aruba CX 6100 Switch Series is modern family of entry level access switches ideal for enterprise branch offices and SMB networks. Optimized for reliable, simple and secure access, the CX 6100 switches provide a convenient wired access solution for enterprise networks supporting IoT, mobile and cloud applications.

The CX 6100 series is based on the Aruba ASIC architecture with the programmable AOS-CX operating system used across the entire Aruba CX portfolio for a more consistent, more efficient operator experience. This layer 2 switch series has convenient built-in high speed uplinks with up to 370W of PoE to support IoT devices such as security cameras and wireless APs, and includes a compact and fanless model ideal for use in quiet work spaces. With robust QoS, support for static routing, and IPv6, the CX 6100 also simplifies ownership with no software licensing requirements.

PRODUCT DIFFERENTIATORS

AOS-CX - a modern software system

The Aruba CX 6100 Switch Series is based on AOS-CX, a modern, database-driven operating system that is built on a modular Linux architecture. This operating system provides the following unique capabilities:

• Easy access to all network configuration state information
• REST APIs for fine-grained programmability of network tasks
• A micro-services architecture that enables full integration with other workflow systems and services
• All software processes communicate with the database rather than each other, ensuring near real-time state and resiliency

updates. Intelligent capabilities include search, edit, validation (including conformance checking), deployment and audit features. Capabilities include:

• Centralized configuration with validation for consistency and compliance
• Time savings via simultaneous viewing and editing of multiple configurations
• Customized validation tests for corporate compliance and network design
• Automated large-scale configuration deployment without programming

Note: A separate software license is required to use Aruba NetEdit.

Mobility and IoT performance

The Aruba CX 6100 Switch Series uses internally developed Aruba ASICs that provide very low latency, increased packet buffering, and adaptive power consumption. Each switch includes the following:

• Up to 176 Gbps in non-blocking bandwidth and up to 98.6 Mpps for forwarding
• Selectable queue configurations that allow for increased performance by defining a number of queues and associated memory buffering to best meet the requirements of network application

Simplify adds, moves and changes

Reduce manual IT operation tasks around initial deployment or on-going configuration changes to accommodate adds, moves and changes with colorless ports using local user roles and local-MAC-Authentication (LMA). Instead of statically pre-configuring access ports to VLANs and maintaining the switch port to VLAN mapping, colorless ports can automatically apply the role/policy required.

Enterprise-class access connectivity

To address branch office and small enterprise environments, the CX 6100 family includes five fixed 1U models. Each switch includes built-in high speed uplinks that auto-negotiate from 1GbE to 10GbE to deliver non-blocking performance. Additional highlights:

• 1U models support 24 and 48 access ports of IEEE 802.3 1GbE with four built-in 1GbE/10GbE uplink SFP+ ports. The 24 and 48 port PoE models support up to 370W IEEE 802.3at Class 4 Power over Ethernet for up to 30W per port

• Features 12 networking ports to easily establish a local network or expand your existing one


• Cascade to other network devices through the uplink port to expand your local area network


• Supports optical fiber cable to span longer distances and provided high data transmission rates between servers and network components


• Up to 10x faster than standard Ethernet server connectivity while providing high-performance uplinks


• With leading Layer 2 support, experience enhanced convenience, secure business operations, and a borderless network experience


• Managed switch provides a reliable foundation for your network


• Built-in power supply to ensure all components are being supplied with accurate voltage


• With Wall mounting feature, you can conveniently install the switch while keeping the wires and cables organized
