## Long description

The HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300L 48p Smart Rate 100M/1G/2.5G/5G L2 Switch is a stackable Layer 2 access switch offering 48 HPE Smart Rate ports that support 100 Mbps, 1 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps and 5 Gbps speeds. Designed for access and aggregation deployment, it provides a 780 Gbit/s switching capacity, PoE support and telemetry features via the CX software platform and Network Analytics Engine.
Advantages
This switch family combines a cloud-native, fully programmable OS with a powerful 7th Gen ASIC architecture to deliver non-blocking performance and advanced monitoring. Virtual Stacking Framework (VSF) and Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) options simplify management and increase availability for access networks. Built-in high-speed uplinks, MACsec 256 encryption, and support for high-power 802.3bt PoE make the CX 6300L suitable for APs and IoT devices while Smart Rate multi-gigabit ports ensure future-proof connectivity.
Suitable for
High-performance wired access for enterprise offices and branch locations
Wireless access point aggregation and PoE-powered IoT deployments
Stacked access layer with simplified management and monitoring
Key specifications
Model: HPE Aruba Networking CX 6300L 48p Smart Rate (MPN: S3L76A)
Ports: 48 Smart Rate ports (100M/1G/2.5G/5G)
Switching capacity: 780 Gbit/s
PoE: Supports IEEE 802.3bt high power PoE (up to 90 W on supported ports)
Stacking: Virtual Stacking Framework (up to 10 members) and VSX for active-active redundancy
Security & features: MACsec 256, BGP, EVPN, VXLAN, VRF, OSPF, QoS
Management: CX OS, Network Analytics Engine, HPE Aruba Central compatibility
How to use
Install the switch in a standard 19-inch rack and connect uplinks and access devices to the Smart Rate ports. Configure basic network settings, VLANs and PoE policies via the CX operating system or HPE Aruba Central. For larger deployments, create a VSF stack or VSX cluster to manage multiple switches as a single logical device and enable telemetry with the Network Analytics Engine for monitoring and troubleshooting.
Usage recommendations
Use VSF stacking for simplified single-point management in scalable access deployments and VSX when active-active redundancy is required. Apply MACsec for link-level encryption where sensitive data traverses the access layer and enable 802.3bt PoE on ports connected to high-power APs or IoT devices.
