Aruba 8360-48Y6C v2 JL704C#ABA 25G Switch

Sustain critical traffic paths with a core and aggregation switch designed for high-density 25G environments. The Aruba 8360-48Y6C v2 delivers 48 SFP28 ports for 1/10/25 GbE connectivity, plus QSFP28 uplink options for higher-speed aggregation and fabric design flexibility. Its Layer 3 management model fits routed campus cores, data center aggregation, and environments where policy, scale, and predictable forwarding matter. This 1U rack-mountable switch is built for teams that need more than basic port count. Front-to-back airflow supports standard data center cooling patterns, while the 4.8 Tbps class capacity referenced for the CX 8360 series helps keep throughput available as traffic grows. For infrastructure teams consolidating access layers or building a resilient aggregation tier, this model provides the port mix and headroom to reduce oversubscription pressure and delay the next hardware cycle. Choose it when 10G is no longer enough, but 100G everywhere is unnecessary. It gives you a practical path to higher-density 25G connectivity with enterprise-grade routing control and expansion room at the edge of the core.
