The Aruba CX 8360 v2 Switch Series represents a bold step forward in designing networks for the mobile, cloud, and IoT era. The HPE 8360-12C v2 Ethernet Switch is built to serve as a high-performance core or aggregation device in contemporary campus and data center environments, delivering intelligent automation, robust security, and unparalleled scalability. This platform combines CXOS intelligence with flexible port configurations and resilient design to streamline deployment, simplify ongoing management, and empower IT teams to respond quickly to changing business needs. Whether you are building a new network or expanding an existing one, the 8360-12C v2 is engineered to provide dependable throughput, low latency, and an architecture that grows with your organization without sacrificing control or security. From edge-to-core to cloud integration, this switch is purpose-built to handle demanding workloads, support autonomous operations, and enable fast, secure access for users, devices, and services across the campus and data center.

  • The 8360-12C v2 is designed for next-generation campus core and aggregation roles, delivering scalable performance and intelligent fabric capabilities that reduce bottlenecks and improve user experience across wireless, wired, and IoT deployments. Its architecture is optimized for latency-sensitive applications such as real-time collaboration, high-bandwidth analytics, and immersive experiences, ensuring consistent performance even as demand surges.
  • Port density and uplink flexibility are engineered to support evolving networks. With SKU-based configurations, you can leverage multi-rate uplinks and high-speed interfaces to connect to aggregation layers, large data centers, and cloud services. The switch is built to accommodate growth—from modest campus campuses to large campus environments and regional data centers—without requiring a complete network refresh.
  • Security and segmentation are central to the CX design. The HPE 8360-12C v2 integrates zero-trust principles, microsegmentation, and policy-driven access controls to protect devices and workloads across mobile, cloud, and IoT. By applying dynamic security policies at scale, organizations can isolate traffic, enforce compliance, and reduce the attack surface across every user and device on the network.
  • Automation and intelligent management set the CXOS platform apart. AI-powered telemetry, proactive health checks, and automated troubleshooting help reduce mean time to resolve incidents. With REST APIs, programmable workflows, and seamless integration with Aruba Central, IT teams can automate configuration, monitoring, and remediation, freeing experts to focus on innovation rather than routine tasks.
  • Reliability and lifecycle efficiency are cornerstones of the 8360-12C v2 design. Expect redundant power options, modular cooling, and hot-swappable components that keep critical services online. The device supports firmware integrity, diversified backup configurations, and streamlined recovery procedures to minimize downtime and ensure business continuity even during maintenance windows.

How to install HPE 8360-12C v2 Ethernet Switch

  • Prepare the installation site: ensure a stable rack, proper ventilation, and rack-mount clearance for airflow around the unit.
  • Mount the switch in the rack: secure the chassis with screws and attach any optional rails as needed. Verify that all mounting hardware is compatible with your rack depth and weight requirements.
  • Connect power: install redundant power supplies if included or required for your environment. Connect power cords to a reliable power source with appropriate circuit protection.
  • Attach network cables: connect uplinks, spine or aggregation links, and access-layer connections. Use appropriate fiber or copper transceivers and ensure cables are labeled for easy identification during maintenance.
  • Initial management access: connect a management workstation to a console port or assign an IP address via DHCP to the management interface. Access CXOS through the CLI or GUI to begin the initial configuration.
  • Baseline configuration: set up a management IP, administrator credentials, and a secure access method. Configure VLANs, SVIs, and inter-VLAN routing as needed for your topology. Define QoS policies, security rules, and routing protocols according to your network design.
  • Automation and integration: onboard the device to Aruba Central or use CXOS REST APIs for automation. Deploy templates or scripts to enforce consistent configurations across multiple switches if you are deploying a larger topology.
  • Verification: test connectivity across access, distribution, and core layers. Validate routing between VLANs, verify VLAN tagging, confirm VXLAN or VRF functionality if applicable, and monitor through CXOS telemetry for any anomalies.

Excellent quality results from this little printer!
I read reviews for a lot of sublimation printers, and this always came out top within my price range. The results are fabulous. I’ve used it to produce images on t-shirts, bags, beer koozies, aluminum, glass and mugs, and so far I haven’t been disappointed at all! I’m using a Mac with Cricut, and it takes a while to get used to the Epson Mac setup, so here’s my tip. You need to print mirrored, especially if you have text, so that when you heat press your work it ends up the correct way around. The Mac driver automatically mirrors everything by default, but you still need the mirror on if you use Cricut, so that the cutting device knows exactly where to cut. So leave the mirror on with Cricut Maker and choose “print with system dialogue” and under the printer info section of the pop up when you go to print, turn off the mirroring. Also, the printer dialogue window never seems to come to the front of the other windows, so don’t sit and wait for hours wondering why it’s not printing. Move your Cricut Maker window and find the print window. I’m super happy with the results I’m getting. I’m using original Epson ink so I don’t void any warranty, and I’m using regular sublimation paper. Enjoy your crafting!!

Works great as advertised
Style: Printer & Inks, Style: Printer & Inks
Working great so far! Enjoying starting doing sublimation work. A rookie a few weeks in and it's going well. Print quality is decent. Not having paper jam issues. Was easy to setup. I had to goto Epson and download a current print driver to get all the print properties and printer settings I needed. Was easy. After I installed the 2nd driver and saw it worked better, then I uninstalled the 1st epson driver. Helped allow for 8.5 x 14 page size and high quality. Just a few options needed that were not showing on the original print driver. Took me a few days to figure out what was going on. It helped with the quality of the prints after I got the better driver. So the end product is better also.

Prints great, wifi was an issue
Style: Printer & Inks
Got the printer a week ago and have printed something every day so far and the quality of the prints have been fantastic. Arrived and set up without any major issues, other than not being able to connect to my local wifi. Had to get an Ethernet cable to connect to it.
