HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300M 48-Port 1GbE Switch (JL663A)

Product Overview

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300M JL663A is a high-performance, stackable Layer 3 switch designed for modern enterprise access, aggregation, and small core deployments. This 48-port 1GbE switch offers advanced features including high-speed uplinks, robust security, and flexible programmability. It is ideal for organizations requiring reliable, scalable, and secure networking infrastructure.

Key Features

• 48 x 10/100/1000BASE-T ports + 4 x 1G/10G/25G/50G SFP56 uplink ports
• Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) stacking support for up to 10 units
• High availability with hot-swappable power supplies and fan trays
• Advanced Layer 3 routing (BGP, OSPF, VRF, EVPN, VXLAN)
• Built-in Aruba CX OS with cloud-native management via Aruba Central
• Energy-efficient design with IEEE 802.3az support

Core Technologies

The JL663A leverages HPE's 7th Generation  for high-performance switching and deep visibility. It supports a wide range of protocols including BGP, OSPFv2/v3, VXLAN, EVPN, and IEEE 802.1AE MACsec encryption. The switch also features Aruba's Network Analytics Engine (NAE) for real-time monitoring and troubleshooting.

How It Works

The switch operates as a fully distributed system using Aruba Gen7 to deliver wire-speed performance. It uses VSF stacking to combine multiple physical switches into a single logical unit, simplifying management and increasing resiliency. The built-in Aruba CX OS provides a programmable, microservices-based architecture for automation and security.
