About the Aruba CX 10000-48Y6C Switch

L2/L3 switching with BGP/OSPF routing and VXLAN/EVPN fabric capability determines the role this platform plays in your data center or campus core. The Aruba CX 10000-48Y6C Switch (part number R9W13A) delivers enterprise-grade performance with 48 ports of 25GbE connectivity paired with 6 ports of 100GbE uplink capacity, enabling network engineers and infrastructure teams to consolidate access and aggregation layers without sacrificing throughput. With a non-blocking switching fabric delivering 26.4 Tbps, this platform sustains line-rate forwarding across all interfaces simultaneously.

Built by Aruba for mission-critical deployments, the CX 10000 series incorporates redundant hot-swap power supplies rated at 2200W each and redundant hot-swap cooling to eliminate single points of failure. The unit operates across the standard enterprise temperature range of 0–40 °C and fits standard EIA-310 19-inch racks in a compact 1U or 2U form factor depending on configuration. Management is delivered through Aruba Central or direct on-box CLI access, giving operations teams flexibility in how they monitor and configure the switch. Network architects and IT procurement teams responsible for high-density, low-latency fabric design will find the uplink options—6 x 100GbE QSFP28 or 2 x 400GbE QSFP-DD—flexible enough to adapt to future bandwidth demands.

Typical Enterprise Deployment Scenarios

  • Data center core and aggregation switching for organizations consolidating multiple access layers into fewer, higher-capacity nodes
  • High-performance computing (HPC) cluster interconnect, leveraging 26.4 Tbps fabric capacity for latency-sensitive workloads
  • Campus backbone and WAN aggregation where redundancy and non-blocking performance are mandatory
  • Multi-tenant cloud infrastructure requiring stateful L2/L3 segmentation and dynamic fabric scaling
  • Financial services and healthcare networks where uptime and deterministic latency drive hardware selection
