HPE Aruba 6400 48P SR5 CL6 PoE 4SFP56 V2 Module

Scale access switching without sacrificing uplink headroom. The Aruba 6400 48P SR5 CL6 PoE 4SFP56 V2 module is designed for modular Aruba 6400 environments that need high port density, Power over Ethernet delivery, and fast fiber uplinks in a single line card. With 48 PoE-enabled RJ-45 ports and 4 SFP56 interfaces, it supports modern campus edge designs where access devices, wireless infrastructure, and downstream switches all compete for bandwidth. This module fits teams that want to keep the access layer compact while preserving room for growth. The 6400 chassis architecture lets you add capacity where it is needed, rather than overbuilding with fixed switches that may not match future demand. That matters in enterprise networks where port count, uplink speed, and serviceability directly affect deployment cost and operational flexibility. For infrastructure teams standardizing on Aruba switching, this module helps maintain a consistent operational model across the campus. It is a strong fit for environments that need dependable PoE distribution for phones, access points, cameras, and other powered endpoints, while the SFP56 uplinks provide a cleaner path to aggregation or distribution layers. The result is a more controlled access design with fewer compromises at the edge.
