The Aruba CX 6200 Switch Series is a next-gen family of stackable access switches ideal for enterprise branch offices, campuses, and SMB networks. Created for game-changing operational efficiency with built-in analytics and automation, the CX 6200 switches provide an enterprise-class access layer solution that's simple and secure.
Built from the ground up with a combination of cuttingedge hardware, software and analytics and automation tools, the stackable CX 6200 switches are part of the Aruba CX switching portfolio. By combining a modern, fully programmable OS with the Aruba Network Analytics Engine, the CX 6200 brings industry leading monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities to the access layer.
A powerful Aruba Gen7 ASIC architecture delivers reliable performance and enterprise-class feature support with flexible programmability for tomorrow's applications. The CX 6200 is designed for simple deployment using the intuitive Aruba CX Mobile App that speeds install, configuration and stacking of up to 8 switches. The CX 6200 switch series includes fixed (CX 6200F) and modular (CX 6200M) switches with built-in high-speed uplinks. Fixed switches support up to 30W of PoE per port. Flexible, modular switches offer hotswappable power supplies and fans for enhanced resiliency and redundancy, and up to 60W of PoE per port to power the latest IoT devices, security cameras, and wireless APs.
Aruba Dynamic Segmentation extends Aruba's foundational wireless role-based policy capability to Aruba wired switches. What this means is that the same security, user experience and simplified IT management can be enjoyed throughout the network. Regardless of how users and IoT devices connect, consistent policies are enforced across wired and wireless networks, keeping traffic secure and separate.
PRODUCT DIFFERENTIATORS | AOS-CX - a modern software system
The Aruba CX 6200 Switch Series is based on AOS-CX, a modern, database-driven operating system that automates ARUBA CX 6200 SWITCH SERIES 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. Easy access to all network state information allows unique visibility and analytics Our AOS-CX software also includes Aruba Network Analytics Engine (NAE) and support for Aruba NetEdit. Because AOSCX is built on a modular Linux architecture with a stateful database, our operating system provides the following unique capabilities:
- Easy access to all network state information allows unique visibility and analytics
- REST APIs and Python scripting for fine-grained programmability of network tasks
- Enterprise-class connectivity with support for ACLs, robust QoS and common protocols such as static and Access OSPF routing
- Scalability with 8-member switch VSF stacking for up to 384 downlink ports
- Versatile 1G/10G uplinks with LRM and MACsec 256 support on modular switches
- Convenient built-in 1G/10G uplinks on fixed power switches and additional cost-efficient 1G uplink switch models
- Industry standard Power over Ethernet with up to 30W PoE (Class 4) per port on fixed power switches and up to 60W PoE (Class 6) per port on modular power switches
- Intelligent monitoring, visibility, and troubleshooting with Aruba Network Analytics Engine
- Manage via single pane of glass with Aruba Central across wired, wireless, and WAN
- Simple, one touch deployment with the Aruba CX Mobile App
- Automated configuration and verification with Aruba NetEdit
- Secure and simple access for users and IoT with Aruba Dynamic Segmentation
