Switch gestionado HPE Aruba Networking 6200M L3 24x Gigabit Ethernet PoE

The HPE Aruba Networking 6200M L3 24x Gigabit Ethernet PoE is a managed Layer 3 switch designed for enterprise access and aggregation layers. It provides 24 Gigabit RJ-45 ports with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support and integrated 10G uplink capability. The switch delivers a switching capacity of 176 Gbit/s and a MAC address table of 32,000 entries, and ships with four installed SFP modules. Console access is available via RJ-45 and USB Type-C ports, enabling flexible deployment and management in campus and branch networks.

Advantages

This managed switch offers Layer 3 routing features combined with high port density and PoE support to power endpoint devices directly from the switch. Its 176 Gbit/s switching capacity and a large MAC address table support dense network environments, while the included SFP modules and 10G support provide uplink options for aggregation or core connectivity. The availability of both RJ-45 and USB Type-C console ports simplifies onsite configuration and troubleshooting.

Suitable for

• Enterprise access layer for offices, schools and branch locations
• PoE-powered endpoints such as VoIP phones, wireless access points and IP cameras
• Aggregation switches connecting multiple access switches to a data center or core
• Networks requiring Layer 3 routing features and hardware‑based switching performance

How to use

Install the switch in a standard 19-inch rack or suitable flat surface location ensuring proper ventilation and access to power. Connect Ethernet devices to the RJ-45 ports and attach fiber uplinks to the SFP ports as required. Configure the switch using the command-line interface through the RJ-45 or USB Type-C console port, or use Aruba management tools and standard network management protocols. Enable PoE per-port settings for connected endpoints that require power and configure VLANs, routing, QoS and security features according to your network design.

Recommendations

Place the switch in a secure, temperature-controlled environment and ensure firmware is updated to the latest stable release. Plan PoE budget and port assignments to avoid overloading power capacity, segregate management traffic using dedicated VLANs, and monitor performance and logs through your network management system for reliable operation.
