The Aruba CX 9300 Switch Series is a next-generation 25.6Tbps, 1U fixed configuration switch supporting 32-ports of 100GbE, 200GbE or 400GbE*. The switch is an ideal solution for flexible, cost-effective, high-density 400GbE networking for server, storage, and intra-fabric connectivity. This solution helps protect enterprises investment as they transition server farms from 10GbE and 10GbE/25GbE to 100GbE/400GbE EVPN-VXLAN leaf and/or spine configurations at reduced power and a smaller footprint.
The Aruba CX 9300 Switch Series supports large Data Center PODS of up to 6,000 x 25GbE servers or up to 2,000 x 100GbE servers. This is an 8x jump in scaling/density over current Aruba CX 8325-32C which scales to 700 x 25GbE servers.
The Aruba CX 9300 Switch Series can be used as a 100GbE Leaf or 100GbE/400GbE Spine switch (128 x 100GbE or 64 x 200GbE ports using breakouts).
When deployed as a Spine, the Aruba CX 9300 Switch Series flexibility connects to a range of leaf switches including Aruba CX 8325 switch series, Aruba CX 8360 switch series, or Aruba CX 10000 switch series.
With Aruba's most recent AOS-CX release, the CX 10000, CX 9300, and CX 8325 switches provides an ideal solution for data center, cloud and storage use cases that support top of-rack server/storage connectivity and scale-out leaf-spine fabric topologies. These innovative AOS-CX enhancements provide storage-optimization to ensure low-latency and "lossless" network QoS and connectivity characteristics that storage requires.
PRODUCT DIFFERENTIATORS | AOS-CX - a modern software system
The Aruba 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. A built-in time series database enables customers and developers to utilize software scripts for historical troubleshooting, as well as analysis of past trends. This helps predict and avoid future problems due to scale, security, and performance bottlenecks. AOS-CX operating system features are organized into Aruba CX Foundation and Aruba CX Advanced software licenses.
Every Aruba CX switch includes an active, embedded Aruba CX Foundation license at no additional cost with the option to upgrade to an Aruba CX Advanced license.
The CX Foundation license has everything needed to deploy, connect, and troubleshoot an enterprise network, including:
The Aruba CX Advanced license includes Aruba CX Edge Insights, offering deep visibility with application recognition, identification, and flow capture from layer 4 to layer 7
