Description
The HPE Aruba Networking CX 8360-48Y6C v2 is a high-performance, enterprise-grade Layer 3 switch designed for modern core and aggregation networks. With 48 ports of 1/10/25G SFP/SFP+/SFP28 and 6 high-speed 40/100G QSFP+/QSFP28 uplinks, it delivers up to 4.8 Tbps of switching capacity in a compact 1U form factor. Equipped with MACsec encryption on select ports, it provides secure connectivity across untrusted domains.
Powered by the AOS-CX operating system, it supports advanced automation, telemetry, and fault tolerance through microservices architecture and built-in Network Analytics Engine (NAE). Ideal for campus cores, data centers, and cloud-driven infrastructures, the 8360-48Y6C v2 switch supports redundant power and fans, and front-to-back airflow for reliable operation in mission-critical environments.
