R0X29A provides these features:

Automation and Analytics

  • The Aruba CX 6400 Switch Series delivers unparalleled visibility with built-in analytics for real-time monitoring and troubleshooting to help fix problems faster. The Aruba Network Analytics Engine (NAE) automatically interrogates and analyzes events that can impact network health.
  • Advanced telemetry and automation provide the ability to easily identify and troubleshoot network, system, application, and security related issues easily, through the use of Python agents and REST APIs.
  • The Time Series Database (TSDB) stores configuration and operational state data, making it available to quickly resolve network issues.

High Availability and Performance

  • The Aruba CX 6400 Switch Series uses a fully distributed architecture with Aruba Gen7 ASICs that deliver very low latency, increased packet buffering, and adaptive power consumption. All switching and routing are wire-speed to meet the demands of bandwidth-intensive applications.
  • Features high speed, non-blocking 1GbE, 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE for scalable connnectivity.
  • The ability of AOS-CX to maintain synchronous state across dual control planes allows a simplified carrier-class high-availability solution called Aruba Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) that enables a distributed architecture which is available during upgrades or control plane events.
  • High performance and versatile platform supports non-blocking 1GbE, 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, 50GbE, and 100GbE connections, and high density connectivity for aggregation with up to 480 ports of HPE Smart Rate multi-gigabit (1/2.5/5GbE) with 60W PoE for a total of 28,880W of PoE.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the primary throughput capabilities of the Aruba 6405 R0X29A switch? +
The Aruba 6405 R0X29A is a high-performance Layer 3 managed switch designed for the modern campus edge. It features 96 Gigabit PoE Class 4 ports for dense connectivity and 4 SFP56 ports capable of high-speed 50G uplinks. This modular chassis architecture ensures high throughput and low latency, making it ideal for bandwidth-intensive enterprise environments.
Does the R0X29A support Power over Ethernet for modern wireless access points? +
Yes, this model includes 96 ports of Class 4 PoE, providing up to 30W of power per port. This is specifically engineered to support high-performance Wi-Fi 6 and 6E access points, IP security cameras, and VoIP phones, ensuring your connected infrastructure remains powered and operational without requiring localized power sources.
Can the Aruba 6405 R0X29A be deployed in a core or aggregation layer? +
The Aruba 6405 is a versatile modular switch that excels in both aggregation and campus core roles. Its robust Layer 3 feature set, combined with advanced routing protocols and non-blocking performance, allows network administrators to build scalable architectures that meet the rigorous demands of enterprise-level traffic and heavy server-side workloads.
What management features are available on the Aruba 6405 platform? +
This switch supports comprehensive management via the Aruba CX operating system. It provides a modern, programmable CLI, REST APIs for network automation, and integration with Aruba NetEdit for simplified configuration and verification. These tools allow IT teams to manage complex network policies efficiently while maintaining high visibility into traffic patterns and system health.
How does the R0X29A handle high-availability requirements? +
The 6405 chassis is built with high availability in mind, featuring redundant power supplies and fans to prevent downtime. The modular design allows for hot-swappable line cards, which minimizes maintenance windows. Coupled with the Aruba Virtual Switching Framework (VSF), you can stack these switches to create a resilient, unified logical system that remains operational even during individual component failures.
What is the benefit of the SFP56 ports on the R0X29A? +
The 4 SFP56 uplink ports provide high-density, multi-speed flexibility for your core connections. They are specifically designed to support 50G connectivity, providing a substantial jump in uplink capacity compared to standard SFP+ interfaces. This ensures your network backbone can keep pace with increasing data throughput from your access layer.
Is the R0X29A compatible with existing Aruba campus access solutions? +
The R0X29A is fully compatible with the broader Aruba CX switching portfolio. It seamlessly integrates into environments using Aruba ClearPass for network access control and Aruba AirWave or Central for management. This creates a unified wired and wireless policy framework, simplifying the authentication and security procedures across your entire campus infrastructure.
How should I plan for the rack space requirements of this 6405 chassis? +
The Aruba 6405 chassis is a 5-slot form factor designed for standard 19-inch racks. When planning your installation, account for both the physical dimensions of the chassis and the necessary depth for airflow and cable management. Since this is a high-density PoE switch, ensure your rack location has adequate power capacity to handle the full PoE budget of the installed line cards.
