HPE Aruba CX 6000 48-Port 1G Switch R8N86B#ABA

Maintain stable wired access for users, devices, and downstream switches with the HPE Aruba Networking CX 6000 48-port model. It pairs 48 x 10/100/1000BASE-T ports with 4 x 1G SFP uplinks, giving you the port density needed for office floors, branch closets, and distributed edge environments. This switch is designed for teams that want straightforward Layer 2 access switching with the operational consistency of the Aruba CX family. The 1G SFP uplinks help separate access traffic from aggregation paths, while USB-C console and USB Type-A host ports simplify local administration and service workflows. That makes it a practical fit for deployments where uptime, clean cabling, and predictable behavior matter more than unnecessary complexity. Choose this model when you need a larger access switch that can anchor a wiring closet, support mixed endpoint populations, and reduce the need for multiple smaller switches. It delivers the port count and uplink structure to support growth while keeping the platform focused on core switching tasks.
