Overview

HPE FlexNetwork 7500X 7506X Manageable Switch Chassis - 100 Gigabit Ethernet - 100GBase-X - 2 Layer Supported - Modular - 1400 W Power Consumption - Optical Fiber, Twisted Pair - PoE Ports - 13U High - Rack-mountable, Cabinet Mount - 1 Year Limited Warranty

The HPE FlexNetwork 7500X Switch Series is a versatile, multi-layered, high performance, modular switch for enterprise LAN edge, aggregation, and core layers.

The 7500X combination of Chassis, MPUs and LPUs offers 1/10/40/100GbE connectivity, with PoE/PoE+, meets existing and future requirements, IoT, etc. Higher switching bandwidth (480Gbps/slot) and L2/L3 routing services dramatically improve performance and increases support for mission-critical environments.

Customers can take advantage of Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) and Ethernet VPN (BGP EVPN) to provide greater scalability and better utilization of available network paths and leverage HPE Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF) to enable flatter, more agile and highly available networks.

HPE Intelligent Management Center (IMC) provides a single view of the entire network. Support for IPv4/IPv6, and MPLS/VPLS features provide investment protection and an easy transition from IPv4 to IPv6 networks and ease of maintenance is assured with Graceful Insertion and Removal (GIR) and In Service Software Update (ISSU).

  • Higher bandwidth of 480 Gbps/slot and higher scalability with up to 288K MAC, up to 104K ARP and up to 256K FIB (depending on the LPU and operational mode chosen) for enhanced switch performance.
  • Multiple interface options of 1/10/40/100 GbE with higher port counts of upto 40*100G across the 3 models to meet varying network scale demands.
  • Virtual Extensible LAN (VXLAN) with Ethernet VPN (BGP EVPN) allows greater flexibility, better performance with wire speed, better scalability and enhanced security.
  • Enhanced programmability for faster time to service and integration into modern tools (Puppet/Chef/Ansible) with CLI, SNMPv2/v3, full Netconf/Yang models, REST APIs and scripting (python).
  • Comprehensive security approach at every layer including micro-segmentation which enables grouping of endpoints based on a specific criteria.
  • Enhanced Media Delivery Index (eMDI) to monitor audio and video service quality and locate faults.
  • Multicast DNS (mDNS) for enabling endpoint devices to locate a device or service by name in small local networks without using preconfigured name servers.
