Product Description
HPE Aruba Networking CX 6000 48G Class4 PoE 4SFP 370W Switch (R8N85A)
Product Overview
The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6000 48G Class4 PoE 4SFP 370W Switch (Model: R8N85A) is a modern, fully-managed Layer 2 access switch designed for enterprise branch offices, mid-sized businesses, and small enterprises. It delivers reliable, secure, and convenient wired access connectivity, making it an ideal foundation for networks supporting IoT, mobile, and cloud applications. This switch combines high-performance gigabit connectivity with robust Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities, simplified management options, and a future-ready architecture.
Key Selling Points:
- High-density 48-port Gigabit Ethernet switch with 4x built-in 1G SFP uplinks.
- Up to 370W of Class 4 PoE/PoE+ support for APs, IP cameras, and IoT devices.
- Fanless, compact design suitable for noise-sensitive and space-constrained environments.
- Unified management via HPE Aruba Networking Central, CLI, Web GUI, or REST APIs.
- No software licensing or subscription required—simplifying total cost of ownership.
Characteristics
- 48 x 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, 4 x 1G SFP fiber uplinks
- Supports IEEE 802.3af/at PoE standards with up to 30W per port
- Dual-core ARM Cortex A9 processor @ 1.016 GHz
- 8 GB DDR3 memory, 16 GB eMMC storage
- Static routing, ACL, QoS, sFlow, IPv6 support
- USB-C console port and USB Type-A host port
Technology
This Aruba switch runs on the programmable HPE Aruba Networking CX Operating System (AOS-CX), ensuring consistent operation across the CX portfolio. It features a dedicated ASIC for low latency and adaptive power consumption. The switch supports modern standards including sFlow, REST APIs, and IEEE 802.3at/af PoE, making it ready for software-defined networking and IoT integration.
Working Principle
The switch operates at Layer 2 of the OSI model, providing Ethernet switching, VLAN segmentation, traffic prioritization, and PoE management. It uses hardware-based forwarding to achieve high throughput with minimal latency. The built-in PoE controller dynamically allocates power to connected devices such as wireless access points and IP cameras, ensuring efficient energy use.
Application & Usage
Ideal for:
- Enterprise branch offices and campus access layers
- Mid-market and small business networks
- IoT and digital workplace deployments
- Unified wired and wireless access environments
- Quiet environments such as libraries, classrooms, and clinics
