Product overview
This is the HPE CX8320 32x40G QSFP+ 2.5Tbps L3 Switch, order code JL579A. A switch is rarely the whole order: optics, breakout cables, the right power orientation and a rail kit all have to arrive with it. Send the topology and we will quote the complete bill of materials.

What you get ordering this from us
Ordered by part number
Quoted and supplied against JL579A specifically, so what arrives is what your build sheet asks for.
Quoted with the optics and rails
The switch, the transceivers at both ends and the mounting hardware go on one bill of materials, so nothing blocks the install.
Airflow variant confirmed
We check the airflow direction against your aisle before shipping, because the wrong variant runs hot for the life of the switch.
Questions buyers ask about this part

Specifying a system, not just the part?
Multi-node training is bounded by the fabric between the nodes, so the switch is specified with the cluster rather than after it.
