HPE R0X40C 48-port 1GbE Class 6 PoE 4-port SFP56 switch module

SKU CH-XFM7-BEC3N MPN R0X40C

Adds 48 gigabit PoE ports and four SFP56 uplinks to a rack-mountable chassis

  • 48 RJ-45 ports deliver 1 GbE connectivity for dense access deployments
  • Class 6 PoE powers endpoints through the same copper cabling
  • Four SFP56 slots provide 56 Gbps uplinks for aggregation
  • Twisted-pair and optical-fiber media support flexible link choices
  • Rack-mountable module integrates into standard data-centre cabinets

48-port 1GbE Class 6 PoE module

This HPE R0X40C module adds 48 RJ-45 1000Base-T ports with Class 6 PoE to a compatible Aruba chassis. It targets network teams who need high-density copper access and powered device support in a single line card. The module fits rack-mounted environments where twisted-pair cabling is standard.

Four SFP56 expansion slots

Four SFP56 slots provide fibre uplinks or direct-attach links at higher speeds than the copper ports. They allow the module to aggregate traffic from the 48 access ports onto optical or high-speed copper uplinks without consuming extra chassis bays. This flexibility lets architects tailor uplink capacity to the site design.

48 powered ports and 4 uplinks

The 48 ports deliver both data and Class 6 power for devices such as wireless access points and IP phones. The four SFP56 uplinks carry the aggregated traffic toward the core. When PoE demand exceeds the chassis power budget or when more than four high-speed uplinks are required, an additional module or chassis is necessary.

Questions about this item

When will the PoE budget on the 48 RJ-45 ports need expansion?

The 48 RJ-45 ports deliver Class 6 PoE; if connected devices draw more power than the module's PoE budget allows, an additional power supply or a higher-capacity chassis will be required.

Which link speed caps sustained throughput on the SFP56 uplinks?

Each SFP56 slot supports up to 56 Gbps, so the 1 Gbps RJ-45 edge ports become the bottleneck long before the uplinks saturate.

How much heat does the module add to a rack running all day?

The module is rack-mountable and designed for continuous operation; its thermal load scales with the number of active PoE ports and SFP56 links in use.
