Reliable access switch for modern networks: Aruba Networking CX 6000 offers 24 10/100/1000 Mb/s ports, 4 SFP 1G uplinks, fully managed L2 features, and runs on AOS-CX. Ideal for offices, branches, and SMBs requiring simple management, security, and readiness for IoT and cloud applications.
Aruba Networking CX 6000 is an entry-level access switch designed for reliable, simple, and secure wired access. It leverages the modern HPE Aruba Networking ASIC architecture and the programmable AOS-CX operating system, which unifies management across the portfolio. With fully managed L2 features, integrated uplinks, and the option for quiet, fanless models, it is a perfect choice for smaller and quiet office environments.
Easy deployment and operation are enabled by flexible management options — an intuitive Web GUI, CLI, and cloud or on‑premises control via HPE Aruba Networking Central. Access security, traffic prioritization, and IPv6 support help keep the network stable and future‑ready without requiring additional licenses to activate core features.
