HPE Aruba Networking CX 6200M 48G 4SFP+ Switch

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6200M 48G 4SFP+ Switch is a modular, stackable access-layer switch optimized for enterprise deployments. With 48 Gigabit copper ports and 4 SFP+ uplinks, it supports modular upgrades and stacking, while delivering full Aruba CX features like automation, static routing, ACLs, QoS, and high throughput. Great for organizations needing flexibility, scale, and high port density.

Detailed Specifications

Architecture & Modularity

• “M” denotes modular design; supports field upgrades and flexible I/O modules
• Stackable across multiple switches forming a logical unit
• Designed for scale, redundancy, and future expansion

Ports & Interfaces

• 48 × 10/100/1000 BASE-T copper ports (data, non-PoE or PoE variants depending on model)
• 4 × SFP+ uplink ports (1G/10G fiber)
• Support for modular uplink or accessory modules in expansion slots
• Console port: USB-C or RJ-45 depending on variant
• USB host port (USB-A) for logs, file import/export

Performance & Switching

• High switching capacity (suitable for full-duplex traffic across all ports)
• Forwarding rate sufficient to handle edge traffic loads without bottlenecks
• Low latency for copper and fiber paths
• Adequate packet buffering for traffic bursts

Layer & Routing Capabilities

• Layer 2: VLANs, Spanning Tree Protocols (RSTP, MSTP), link aggregation (LACP), IGMP snooping
• Layer 3: Static routing for IPv4 and IPv6
• Access Control Lists (ACLs) for traffic filtering at L2/L3/L4
• Quality of Service (QoS) including classification, rate limiting, shaping
• IPv6 support for both data plane and management purposes

Power & Environmental

• Power source: internal AC power supply (universal 100–240 VAC)
• Idle power consumption: moderate (tens of watts) when no heavy usage
• Equipped with internal fans, airflow designed for rack setups
• Designed for standard commercial operating temperature and humidity

Management & Software

• Operating System: Aruba AOS-CX
• Management interfaces: CLI (SSH/console), Web UI, REST API, SNMP v2/v3
• Telemetry, event streaming, health monitoring, logging
• Integration with Aruba Central or other network orchestration systems
• Security features: role-based access, secure management (SSH, TLS), control-plane protection
• Firmware upgrade/rollback, in-service updates, modular control-plane resiliency

Key Features

• Modular and stackable architecture with future flexibility
• 48 copper Gigabit access ports + 4 SFP+ uplinks
• Full Aruba CX software support: switching, static routing, ACLs, QoS
• High throughput and low latency performance
• Modern management and automation capabilities with AOS-CX

Meta Description

The Aruba CX 6200M 48G 4SFP+ switch delivers modular and stackable enterprise access, with 48 data ports, 4 fiber uplinks, robust Layer 2 switching plus static routing, and full automation support under Aruba’s AOS-CX OS — ideal for scalable, flexible edge deployments.
