FAQs

Q: Does the Aruba CX 6000 R8N88B support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
A: No. The R8N88B is a data-only switch with no PoE capability. If you require PoE to power IP phones, access points, or cameras, consider the Aruba CX 6000 PoE variants or the CX 6100 series. Contact IP Trading for a recommendation based on your requirements.

Q: What software licensing is required for the Aruba CX 6000 Switch?
A: No additional software licensing is required. The full feature set — including AOS-CX, ACLs, QoS, static routing, and cloud management via Aruba Central — is available out of the box with no ongoing license costs.

Q: How is the Aruba CX 6000 managed?
A: The switch supports multiple management modes: Aruba Central for cloud-based management, a Web GUI for browser-based configuration, CLI for command-line access, REST APIs for network automation, and Aruba NetEdit for centralised configuration management.

Q: Is the Aruba CX 6000 24G 4SFP Switch suitable for small business or branch office use?
A: Yes. It is specifically designed for branch offices, midsize businesses, and small enterprise access layer deployments. Its fanless design, compact 1U form factor, and simplified AOS-CX management make it ideal for environments without dedicated IT staff on-site.

Q: What warranty is included with the Aruba CX 6000 R8N88B?
A: The switch includes a Limited Lifetime Warranty from HPE Aruba, covering hardware defects for the life of the product — a strong value proposition for long-term infrastructure investments.

Q: Can I purchase the Aruba CX 6000 R8N88B in Australia from IP Trading?
A: Yes. IP Trading (iptrading.com.au) is an Australian B2B IT hardware reseller stocking Aruba networking products including the CX 6000 series. Visit the site or contact the team directly for pricing, availability, and volume order support.
