Overview:

The Aruba CX 8325 Switch Series offers a flexible and innovative approach to addressing the application, security, and scalability demands of the mobile, cloud and IoT era. These switches serve the needs of the next generation core and aggregation layer, as well as emerging data center requirements at the Top of Rack (ToR) and End of Row (EoR). They provide over 6.4Tbps of capacity, with line-rate Gigabit Ethernet interfaces including 1Gbps, 10Gbps, 25Gbps, 40Gbps, and 100Gbps.

The 8325 series includes industry-leading line rate ports 1/10/25GbE (SFP/SFP+/SFP28) and 40/100GbE (QSFP+/QSFP28) with connectivity in a compact 1U form factor. These switches offer a fantastic investment for customers wanting to migrate from older 1GbE/10GbE to faster 25GbE, or 10GbE/40GbE to 100GbE ports.

Key Features

  • High performance 6.4Tbps with 2,000 Mpps
  • High availability with industry-leading VSX redundancy, and redundant power supplies and fans
  • Designed for core/aggregation in the campus or Top of Rack or End of Row in the data center
  • AOS-CX automation and programmability using builtin REST APIs and Python scripts
  • Advanced Layer 2/3 feature set includes BGP, OSPF, VRF-Lite, and IPv6
  • Dynamic VXLAN with BGP-EVPN for deep segmentation in data center and campus networks
  • Intelligent monitoring, visibility, and remediation with Aruba Network Analytics Engine
  • One touch deployment with the Aruba CX Mobile App
  • Aruba NetEdit support for automated configuration and verification
  • Compact 1U switch with 1/10/25GbE and 40/100GbE connectivity

Benefits:

The Aruba CX 8325 Switch is an enterprise-class, game-changing solution, offering a flexible approach to dealing with the new application, security, and scalability demands of the mobile, cloud, and IoT era.

Simplify your IT operations with AOS-CX

The Aruba CX 8325 Switch Series is based on AOS-CX, a modern, database-driven operating system that automates and simplifies many critical and complex network tasks. Delivering complete network configuration and assurance, Aruba AOS-CX key innovations are its microservices-style modular architecture, REST APIs, Python-scripting capabilities, and the Aruba Network Analytics Engine.

No downtime, even during upgrades

Aruba Virtual Switching Extension (VSX) takes a new and innovative approach to solving high availability challenges by combining the best aspects of existing HA technologies such as multi-chassis link aggregation (MC-LAG) and equal-cost, multi-path (ECMP) routing. Providing a distributed and redundant architecture, it's highly available, with minimal-to-zero traffic loss, even during software upgrades.

Unparalleled visibility and analytics


Get real-time monitoring and troubleshooting with Aruba Network Analytics Engine (NAE). Embedded in every Aruba CX switch, NAE provides the necessary compute and storage to analyze any event that could impact network health. Offering intelligent pre-processing of data, it can turn raw telemetry into actionable insights.


Future proof your enterprise network infrastructure

The Aruba CX 8325 Switch serves the needs of the next generation core and aggregation layer, as well as emerging data center requirements at the Top of Rack (ToR) and End of Row (EoR). Providing 6.4Tbps for bidirectional switching and 2,000 Mpps for forwarding, all switching and routing are wirespeed to meet the demands of bandwidth-intensive applications today and in the future.
