Product overview

The HPE Aruba 8360-12C (JL709-61001) is a high-density Layer 3 managed switch designed for demanding data center environments. Featuring 12x 100Gbit/40Gbit QSFP28 ports, it provides 2.4 Tbps switching capacity and sub-microsecond 1μs latency, enabling non-blocking wire-speed performance for spine/leaf architectures. Equipped with a 1.8GHz processor, 16GB RAM, and 32GB flash, it supports extensive routing protocols including OSPF, BGP-4, PIM-SM, VRRP, and static IPv4/IPv6 routing. Advanced features like VXLAN VTEP, MACsec encryption, QoS with DW RR, LACP link aggregation, and 9K jumbo frames optimize east-west traffic in cloud, HPC, and enterprise networks. Security is enhanced with FIPS 140-2, RADIUS/TACACS+, ACLs, and port authentication. Management via SNMPv3, SSH-2, CLI, and sFlow ensures remote visibility. Rack-mountable 1U form factor with back-to-front airflow and hot-swappable fans supports scalable, reliable deployments requiring ultra-low latency and high throughput.
