Reasons To Buy

High performance and scale

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 9300 Switch Series meets the modern demands of large-scale virtualized and cloud networks. Provides flexible, cost-effective, high-density 100/400GbE for servers, storage, and intra-fabric connectivity.
The HPE Aruba Networking CX 9300 Switch Series with breakout cabling scalability allows a single 200GbE split into two 100GbE links, 100GbE ports can breakout to four 25GbE ports linking one switch port and accommodating up to four adapter cards in servers or other subsystems.
The HPE Aruba Networking CX 9300 Switch Series eases transition from 10GbE and 25GbE to 100GbE/400GbE providing higher scaling with reduced power and a smaller footprint. 400 Gbps port can be configured as 4 x 100GbE, 2 x 200GbE, or 1 x 400GbE.

Ethernet storage fabric optimized

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 9300 Switch Series enables low-latency and “lossless” network quality of service (QoS) and connectivity characteristics that storage requires.
Ideal for software-defined storage and HCI solutions, where multiple servers share captive (SSD/flash-based) storage resources.
Ideal solution for data center, cloud, and storage use cases that support top-of‑rack server and storage connectivity and scale-out leaf‑spine fabrics.

Intelligent analytics

HPE Aruba Networking Network Analytics Engine (NAE) provides the ability to monitor and troubleshoot the network, system, application and security related issues easily, through simple Python agents and REST APIs.
Intelligent pre-processing of data turns raw telemetry into actionable insights.
HPE Aruba Networking Switch Multi-Edit Software support automated configuration and verification.

High performance and high availability

The HPE Aruba Networking Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) is a high availability technology designed from the ground up to deliver continuous availability, virtualization, and simplicity requirements. Redundant and hot-swappable power supplies and fans provide additional resiliency.
HPE Aruba Networking CX 9300 Switch Series delivers advanced Layer 2/3 feature set includes BGP, OSPF, VRF-Lite, and IPv6. The switch series supports dynamic VXLAN with BGP-EVPN for deep segmentation in data center and campus networks.
