Switch gestionado HPE Aruba CX 6000 48 puertos Gigabit PoE Class4 4xSFP 370W L3 1U para rack

The Managed HPE Aruba CX 6000 48-port Gigabit PoE Class4 4xSFP 370W L3 1U Rackmount Switch is a fully managed Layer‑3 access switch offering 48 Gigabit RJ‑45 ports with Class4 PoE delivering up to 370 W total and four SFP uplink slots. Built on the Aruba ASIC architecture and running the AOS‑CX operating system, this 1U rackmount unit provides a 104 Gbit/s switching capacity, an 8,192‑entry MAC table and USB console access. The switch supports a broad set of IEEE networking standards for campus and branch aggregation, VoIP, wireless access point deployments and IP camera installations, and is suitable for entry‑level enterprise and SMB wired access networks.

Advantages

The Aruba CX 6000 series combines a consistent AOS‑CX software experience with a compact, rackable hardware design that simplifies deployment and ongoing management. Integrated Class4 PoE enables power delivery to access points, cameras and other IoT devices without external injectors, while built‑in 1 GbE uplinks reduce access‑layer bottlenecks. The switch operates as a fully managed L3 device offering static routing, ACLs, QoS, IPv6 support and programmable APIs to fit automated or manual management workflows. Fanless options and adaptive power features help optimize power and noise in small offices.

Suitable for

• Branch office and campus access aggregation for midsize businesses and small enterprises
• Deployment of wireless access points and VoIP phones requiring PoE power
• IP camera and other PoE‑powered IoT device connectivity
• Network edge for cloud, mobile and IoT‑centric environments

How to use

Mount the switch in a standard 19‑inch 1U rack space and connect AC power. Use the USB console or Web GUI for initial configuration, or automate deployment via CLI, REST APIs or Aruba NetEdit. Configure VLANs, QoS policies, PoE port settings and static routes according to your network design. Attach SFP modules to the uplink slots as needed for fiber or longer‑reach copper uplinks. Monitor PoE power consumption, port status and traffic using the built‑in management interfaces and adjust port power allocation to stay within the 370 W power budget.

Recommendations

Place the switch in a temperature‑controlled rack space with adequate airflow and connect critical PoE devices (wireless APs, IP cameras, VoIP phones) while accounting for the 370 W total PoE budget. Use Aruba NetEdit or REST APIs for consistent configuration across multiple devices and enable QoS and ACLs for voice and video traffic to ensure predictable performance.
