HPE Aruba Certified Central Associate (ACCA) — Question 2

A customer requires a network upgrade to replace their existing core switches. The new solution must support 100G speeds to the aggregation layer, with the ability to scale to a 12U chassis.
Which HPE Aruba Networking CX switch model would you initially propose?

Answer options

• A. CX 6400
• B. CX 10000
• C. CX 9300
• D. CX8325

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The HPE Aruba CX 10000 is designed to support high-speed 100G connectivity and can scale effectively, making it the ideal choice for the requirements stated. The CX 6400 and CX 9300 do not meet the 100G speed requirement, while the CX8325, although a capable switch, is not tailored for the core switch role at that scale.
