Product description
The 8320 provides advanced line rate 10GbE/40GbE in a compact 1U form factor. The 8320 is based on the ArubaOS-CX, a modern software system for the enterprise core that automates and simplifies many critical and complex network tasks, delivers enhanced fault tolerance and facilitates zero-service disruption during planned or unplanned control-plane events. The Network Analytics Engine framework is made up of a time series database and associated REST APIs.
Product features
- High-density port connectivity
Comes with 48 ports of 10G to support SFP and SFP+ transceivers, and 6 ports of 40G to support QSFP+ transceivers. - Jumbo frames
Allows high-performance backups and disaster-recovery systems; provides a maximum frame size of 9K bytes. - Loopback
Supports internal loopback testing for maintenance purposes and an increase in availability; loopback detection protects against incorrect cabling or network configurations and can be enabled on a per-port or per-VLAN basis for added flexibility. - Flexible port selection
Provides a combination of fiber and copper transceiver to support 1000BASE-T and 10GBASE-T copper solution. - Packet storm protection
Protects against unknown broadcast, unknown multicast, or unicast storms with user-defined thresholds. - Redundant and load-sharing fans, and power supplies
Increases total performance and power availability while providing hitless, stateful failover. - All hot-swappable modules
Allows replacement of modules without any impact on other modules. - Separate data and control paths
Separates control from services and keeps service processing isolated; increases security and performance. - VRRP
Allows groups of two routers to dynamically back each other up to create highly available routed environments. - Unidirectional Link Detection (UDLD)
Monitors link connectivity and shuts down ports at both ends if unidirectional traffic is detected, preventing loops in STP-based networks.
