Support demanding access-layer workloads with the HPE Aruba Networking 6300M 48SR5 CL6 PoE 4S. Built for environments that need more than basic gigabit switching, it combines 48 Smart Rate ports with 1G, 2.5G, and 5G support to match Wi‑Fi 6 access points, high-performance endpoints, and dense edge traffic without forcing a forklift refresh. Class 6 PoE gives you the power headroom to run modern devices directly from the switch, reducing the need for local injectors and simplifying closet design. Four SFP56 uplinks provide 50G connectivity for aggregation paths that need more bandwidth and lower congestion as access demand grows. That makes this model a strong fit for campus access, branch consolidation, and high-density wireless deployments where port speed and power delivery matter as much as switching capacity. As a TAA-compliant Aruba switch, it also fits procurement environments with sourcing requirements that cheaper alternatives often miss. The result is a cleaner, more durable access layer that is easier to standardize, easier to power, and better aligned to current enterprise endpoint mixes.
