Reading CX part numbers and bundles
- M, F and L: on the CX 6300, M models take separate power supplies and fan trays (HPE lists 6300M bundles with them), F models are fixed, and the CX 6300L is Layer 2 per HPE's description.
- Smart Rate: HPE's name for multigigabit copper ports (1/2.5/5/10G), for Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 access points.
- Switch-only or bundle: CX 8100, 8325 and 8360 come as a switch-only code or a "switch bundle" with fans and two power supplies, in front-to-back (port-to-power) or back-to-front (power-to-port) airflow. Pick the airflow that matches your rack.
- CX 6400 v2: the CX 6405 v2 (R0X26C) and CX 6410 v2 (R0X27C) chassis need management modules, power supplies and line modules, which we configure at quote.

HPE Aruba Networking Central and HPE Mist
- Central: HPE says "HPE Aruba Networking Central provides two primary subscription tiers: Foundation and Advanced." Advanced is "required to enable AI features such as Copilot", and Copilot needs "at least 90% of all devices in the account" on Advanced. Subscriptions are per switch and sized by switch class; we confirm the class, tier, term and part number for each model at quote.
- HPE Mist: HPE Mist Wired Assurance supports the CX5420, CX6300 and CX6400 "running the firmware version (AOS-CX) 10.18.1002 or later", so a site standardising on HPE Mist can manage CX switches there too. Wired Assurance codes for the CX 6300 and 6400 are in the configurator.
- Standalone: CX switches can also be configured locally through AOS-CX.

End of sale and older Aruba switches
HPE has announced end of sale for the CX 8320 on 30 Nov 2026 (support to 30 Nov 2031) and the CX 6200F on 30 Jun 2027 (support to 31 Dec 2033). The 6200F is still in the table until then; for new projects we can quote the CX 6200M, or the CX 6300F for faster uplinks.
Replacing AOS-S switches (Aruba 2530, 2930F, 2930M, 3810M): the 3810 reached end of sale on 31 Jan 2025 and the 2530 and 2540 have ended. You might consider the CX 6100 or 6200 for 2530 and 2930F estates and the CX 6300 for 2930M and 3810M stacks (our suggestion; we confirm like-for-like ports and PoE at quote).
