Carrier-class, high availability core and data center switches
The Aruba CX 8400 Switches are a modern, intelligent and high availability modular solution that is ideal for the most demanding campus core and data center networks.
A carrier-class 8-slot chassis provides up to 19.2 Tbps of switching capacity based on a fully resilient design that includes redundant fabric, management, power and fans to create a resilient, highly available network that your organization can depend on.
A fully programmable network operating system (AOS-CX) and cloud-centric design delivers automation and simplicity, including easy-to-use configuration tools for error-free installs. Built-in monitoring and analytics further enhance the operator experience with immediate troubleshooting and problem resolution insights.
Simplify your IT operations
AOS-CX delivers distributed analytics and full programmability from access edge to data center for complete network configuration and assurance, and automated and simplified IT operations.
See and fix problems before they happen
The Aruba Network Analytics Engine (NAE) provides unparalleled visibility and analytics via built-in, real-time monitoring and troubleshooting for fast problem identification and resolution.
Amazing performance that’s always on
Aruba Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) provides high availability fast wire speed 10GbE (SFP/SFP+ and 10GBASE-T) and 40GbE connectivity even during live upgrades.
