About the HPE Aruba Networking CX 10000 Series Switch (Gen2)
The HPE Aruba Networking CX 10000 Series Switch (Gen2) delivers a switching capacity of 3.2 Tbps and a forwarding rate of up to 2.38 Bpps, providing line-rate performance for demanding enterprise environments. This 1U rack-mountable switch, manufactured by HP under the part number JL812A, combines 48 ports of 25GbE SFP28 connectivity with 8 ports of 100GbE QSFP28, making it ideal for high-density, high-speed data center deployments. The platform runs AOS-CX operating system and integrates an AMD Pensando DPU (Data Processing Unit) for onboard stateful firewall, microsegmentation, and ACL enforcement—all executed at line rate without compromising throughput.
Network engineers and infrastructure teams select this switch for its advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 capabilities, which include VLAN, MSTP, RSTP, LACP, LLDP, and jumbo frame support at Layer 2, alongside IPv4/IPv6 routing, OSPF, BGP, ECMP, VRF, and VXLAN at Layer 3. The built-in AOS-CX Network Analytics Engine (NAE) with streaming telemetry support enables real-time visibility and proactive network management. Redundant hot-swap power supplies and redundant hot-swap fans with configurable airflow ensure continuous operation, while the out-of-band management port, console port, and USB-A interface provide flexible access for administration and troubleshooting.
Programmability is a core strength: the JL812A supports REST API, gRPC, OpenConfig, NETCONF, Ansible, Terraform, and Python SDK, enabling seamless integration into modern infrastructure-as-code workflows. Compliance with IEEE 802.1Q, 802.1ax, 802.3ad, 802.1D, 802.1w, and 802.1s standards ensures vendor interoperability and future-ready deployment.
