HPE Aruba CX 6100 48G 4SFP+ Switch

The HPE Aruba CX 6100 is a fully-managed Layer 3 Ethernet switch built for enterprise networks. It provides 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports and four 10 Gigabit SFP+ uplink slots in a 1U rack-mountable chassis. The switch supports static routing, ACLs, QoS, sFlow and IPv6 for wired infrastructure. Management is unified through HPE Aruba Networking Central across wired, wireless and WAN domains.

Check uplink and power requirements before ordering

Verify that your rack provides a 1U space and that the 17.4 inch width and 9.7 inch depth fit the available clearance. Confirm you have compatible SFP+ transceivers and fibre or copper media for the four uplink slots. The unit includes one installed power supply drawing 44.20 W; ensure your power distribution can support this load. No modular power-supply bays beyond the single installed unit are present.

Sustained operation within 44.20 W envelope

The switch consumes 44.20 W during continuous operation with all 48 ports active and uplinks populated. Passive cooling in the 1.7 inch high chassis maintains stable temperatures under full Layer 3 forwarding load. Rest APIs and colourless ports with local user roles automate ongoing configuration changes without manual intervention. RoHS and WEEE compliance confirms environmentally responsible long-term deployment.

Questions about this item

What comes in the box and what must be purchased separately?

The switch ships with one power supply installed and rack-mount brackets for a 1U slot. SFP+ transceivers for the four uplink slots and any patch cables are not included.

How do I decide between the copper and fibre uplink options?

The four uplink slots accept SFP+ modules; choose 10GBase-X fibre transceivers for longer runs or 10GBase-T copper modules for shorter links up to 100 m.

What does the 44.20 W power draw mean for my rack?

At typical load the unit draws 44.20 W from a single supply, so plan for that heat output and ensure the PDU circuit has headroom above the 7.54 lb weight.
