## Long description

The Hewlett Packard Enterprise Aruba 8320 is a high-performance managed L3 switch designed to meet the rigorous demands of modern campus core and aggregation environments. Built on the innovative ArubaOS-CX software system, this switch provides a modular, programmable architecture that simplifies complex network management through automation, REST APIs, and Python scripting. With a 2.5 Tbps switching capacity and a compact 1U form factor, it delivers reliable, high-speed connectivity for mobile, cloud, and IoT-driven infrastructures.
Advantages
The Aruba 8320 offers exceptional business agility by integrating the Aruba Network Analytics Engine, which allows for proactive monitoring and efficient troubleshooting of network, system, and security issues. Its fully distributed architecture ensures high availability, while the Aruba VSX technology provides continuous uptime and simplified virtualization. The inclusion of redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and fans further enhances system resilience, ensuring that critical network operations remain uninterrupted during maintenance or unexpected events.
Suitable for
Campus core and aggregation network deployments
High-bandwidth data center environments
Enterprises requiring advanced Layer 3 routing and virtualization
Networks demanding high availability and automated management
This switch may not be suitable for small office or home office environments where the advanced Layer 3 routing, high-density 40GbE connectivity, and complex management features exceed the necessary requirements. Its enterprise-grade design is specifically optimized for large-scale, high-performance infrastructures rather than simple, low-traffic network setups.
Key specifications
Switching capacity: 2.5 Tbps
Form factor: 1U
Connectivity: 32 ports of 40GbE QSFP+
Software: ArubaOS-CX with REST API and Python support
Redundancy: Hot-swappable power supplies and 5 fans
Layer 3 features: BGP, OSPF, VRF, and IPv6 support
Weight: 9.7 kg
To use the Aruba 8320, mount the unit in a standard 19-inch rack and connect the necessary power supplies. Initial configuration is performed via the ArubaOS-CX command-line interface or through the integrated REST APIs for automated provisioning. Once connected to the network, administrators can utilize the Network Analytics Engine to set up monitoring agents and define traffic policies to optimize performance and security across the infrastructure.
What to consider before purchase
Ensure your existing network infrastructure supports 40GbE QSFP+ connectivity.
Verify that your rack space can accommodate a 1U device with sufficient airflow.
Assess whether your team is prepared to utilize advanced features like Python scripting and REST APIs for network automation.
For optimal performance and longevity, ensure the switch is installed in a well-ventilated environment and that all firmware is updated to the latest version provided by the manufacturer to benefit from the latest security patches and feature enhancements.
