What is the switching capacity and port configuration of HPE S0E91-61001?

The HPE Aruba CX 6300M S0E91-61001 provides 1760 Gbps full-duplex non-blocking switching capacity and 1310 Mpps throughput. It includes 48x HPE Smart Rate multi-gigabit ports (1/2.5/5/10GBASE-T PoE++) supporting up to 90W IEEE 802.3bt Class 8 per port (2640W total) plus 4x QSFP28 uplinks (1/10/25/40/100GbE).

Does this switch support high-power PoE for Wi-Fi 6 access points?

Yes, all 48 downlink ports deliver IEEE 802.3bt Class 8 PoE++ up to 90W each with 2640W total budget, perfectly suiting high-performance Wi-Fi 6/6E APs and multi-radio IoT devices requiring multi-gigabit speeds and substantial power.

What advanced routing and security features are included?

Layer 3 features include BGP, EVPN, VXLAN, VRF, OSPF routing with large TCAM. Security offers MACsec 256 data link encryption, robust ACLs, and QoS. Built-in analytics enable real-time monitoring without external tools.

How does stacking work on the CX 6300M series?

Supports up to 10 members in Virtual Switching Framework (VSF) with 200 Gbps stacking bandwidth (400 Gbps full duplex). Uses high-speed front ports or dedicated links; CX 6300L models stack only with other L series.

Is this switch suitable for data center top-of-rack deployments?

Yes, compact 1U design with back-to-front airflow, power-to-port bundle option, and 100G uplinks make it ideal for 1GbE/10GbE ToR and OOBM in data centers, with non-blocking performance for east-west traffic.

What uplink flexibility does it provide?

Four QSFP28 ports support 1/10/25/40/50/100GbE transceivers or DACs, with 50G DACs for stacking/interconnects. Breakout cables enable higher density; not supported on all models for VSF.
