Enterprise PoE Switch with 12 Copper Ports

The HPE Aruba CX 6000 is a managed Layer 2 switch that provides twelve 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ45 ports, two SFP ports and two additional 1 GbE interfaces. It delivers up to 139 W of Class 4 PoE power with a 170 W total PoE budget, making it suitable for powering access points, cameras and IP phones from a single device.

Suits Networks Needing Static Routing

This switch fits environments that require static routing, ACLs, QoS traffic prioritisation, sFlow monitoring and IPv6 support without ongoing software licences. It is not intended for deployments that need dynamic routing protocols, Layer 3 switching features or a higher PoE budget per port than Class 4 allows.

32 Gbps Switching Capacity Decides Fit

A 32 Gbps switching fabric with 23.8 Mpps throughput and 2.3 µs latency at 1 Gbps determines whether the CX 6000 can handle the required traffic load. Buyers should match this capacity against their aggregate bandwidth and forwarding‑performance requirements.

Questions about this item

Will the 12 RJ45 ports at 10/100/1000Mbps auto-negotiate with my older 10/100 devices?

Yes, each of the 12 RJ45 ports supports 10/100/1000Mbps speeds and will auto-negotiate down to 10 or 100 Mbps for legacy endpoints.

How can I verify the switch is forwarding at the rated 23.8 Mpps throughput after installation?

Use the built-in sFlow or port counters in the management interface to monitor real-time packet rates and confirm they reach 23.8 Mpps under load.

Does the box include SFP transceivers for the two SFP ports, or must I purchase them separately?

The switch ships with 12 RJ45 ports, 2 SFP ports and 2 1Gbe ports; SFP transceivers are not included and must be bought separately.
