HP Aruba CX 6000 24-port Gigabit PoE+ 370W 4 SFP Switch R8N87B#ABA

SKU CH-QA1F-GC9YC MPN R8N87B#ABA

Manageable 24-port Gigabit switch with 370 W PoE+ budget and four SFP uplinks

  • 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports power devices with a 370 W budget
  • 4 SFP slots enable fiber uplinks for flexible network expansion
  • Fully manageable with ACL and QoS for secure traffic prioritisation
  • Compact design fits branch offices and enterprise racks alike
  • Limited lifetime warranty backs long-term reliability

Compact 24-port PoE+ switch for branch offices

The HP Aruba CX 6000 provides 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports with Class 4 PoE+ support and a 370 W power budget. Four SFP slots allow fibre uplinks alongside twisted-pair connections. It is built for business, branch office, and enterprise environments that need to power IoT devices, cameras, and access points from a single compact unit.

Sustained load with 370 W PoE budget

Under continuous operation the switch delivers up to 370 W across its PoE+ ports while total system consumption reaches 409 W. This headroom keeps attached endpoints powered during prolonged demand without exceeding the internal supply rating. Manageable firmware and QoS features maintain traffic priority when every port is active.

Gigabit SFP uplinks and 10/100/1000Base-T limits

The four 1 Gbps SFP slots and 24 copper ports both top out at 1000 Mbps, so aggregate throughput cannot exceed the Gigabit Ethernet standard. Uplink choices are restricted to 1000Base-X optics or direct-attach cables; higher-speed modules are not supported. USB-C console and USB-A host ports provide local management but add no extra bandwidth.

Questions about this item

How much heat and power draw should I expect when the 370 W PoE budget is fully used all day?

The switch draws up to 409 W total when the 370 W PoE budget is fully loaded, so plan cooling and power circuits for that continuous draw.

What management connection must I have ready to configure the switch out of the box?

A USB-C console cable is required to reach the built-in console port for initial setup and ongoing management.

Will the four SFP slots accept the 1 Gbps fibre modules I already use on older switches?

Yes, the four SFP slots support 1000Base-X, so existing 1 Gbps SFP transceivers will work for uplinks or fibre links.
