Aruba CX6300M 48-Port Smart Rate 10G PoE Switch

Connect high-density Smart Rate 10G access devices with 48 copper ports and retain 100G capacity for aggregation. Aruba S0E92A combines Class 8 PoE capability with a 4,320 W power budget, making it suited to installations that need to power substantial numbers of high-demand edge devices from the switching layer. Four QSFP28 100G ports provide high-bandwidth uplink options for distribution or core connectivity. The Smart Rate 10G port density fits wiring closets and aggregation points where endpoint speeds vary across the installed base but high throughput is required at the edge. Class 8 PoE supports deployments involving power-hungry connected devices, while the 4,320 W budget provides a clear capacity figure for power planning. The four 100G QSFP28 interfaces separate uplink capacity from the 48 edge-facing ports, preserving access-port density. PTP and AVB support make this configuration relevant where timing and deterministic media transport matter, including AV-over-IP environments and networks carrying synchronized services. MACsec adds link-layer traffic protection capability for connections where encryption at the network interface is required. Within the CX6300M range, this configuration is defined by its 48 Smart Rate 10G ports, Class 8 PoE power level, 4,320 W budget, and four 100G QSFP28 uplinks.
