Aruba CX 6100 48G Class4 PoE 4SFP+ 740W Switch

The Aruba R9Y04A#ABA is a gigabit access switch that brings reliable power and high-speed connectivity to the edge of your network. It offers forty-eight RJ-45 ports that deliver Class 4 PoE+, so devices such as IP phones, security cameras, and Wi-Fi access points receive both data and power through one cable. Four SFP+ slots provide 1G or 10G fiber uplinks, making it easy to connect to core switches, servers, or storage at line rate.

A built-in 740 watt power budget lets you populate every PoE+ port with minimal planning, which is ideal for branch offices, retail floors, school labs, or any location where adding extra power outlets is costly or inconvenient. With 176 Gbps of switching capacity and the ability to forward up to 98.6 million packets per second, the switch keeps voice calls clear, video streams smooth, and business applications responsive even during peak traffic.

The switch runs on the Aruba AOS-CX operating system, giving network administrators a familiar interface, robust automation tools, and real-time analytics. Features such as an intuitive web dashboard, a full REST API, and a USB-C console port simplify both initial deployment and ongoing maintenance.

Designed for standard 1U racks with side-to-side airflow, the unit fits comfortably in wiring closets and small data centers. A limited lifetime warranty adds long-term peace of mind, while 4 GB of RAM and 16 GB of flash storage provide the resources needed for future software enhancements.
