AI-native performance and power
The HPE Networking CX6300 Switch Series is a wire-speed solution that uses a fully distributed architecture with Gen7 ASICs that deliver low latency, increased packet buffering, and intelligent power consumption for AI, Wi-Fi 7, and Internet of Things (IoT) requirements.
The Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) allows you to quickly grow your network using high-performance front-plane stacking. Four built-in uplinks support speeds of up to 10, 25, 50, and 100 GbE for a total of 200 to 400 Gbps of stacking throughput per switch.
The Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) uses an inter-switch link (ISL) for high availability and state synchronization between two active-active switches with independent control planes; a switch can belong to either a Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) stack or a VSX cluster, but not both.
HPE Smart Rate multi-gigabit Ethernet delivers adaptive speed options for Wi-Fi, Internet of Things (IoT), and other clients, alongside Class 4 (30W), Class 6 (60W), and Class 8 (90W) PoE on each port (720W, 1440W, 2880W and 4320W maximum PoE budget options).
Additional features include a hibernation mode that enables CX6300 and CX6300L (Layer 2-only) switches to schedule downtime to conserve energy. The CX6300L stackable switches are Layer 2-only, balancing scalability, high-capacity, and cost-effective connectivity.
