Frequently Asked Questions

How many X391 PSUs can be installed in the Aruba CX 8360-12C?

The Aruba CX 8360-12C supports dual PSU slots for N+1 redundancy. Installing two JL601A X391 850W PSUs provides full power redundancy — the switch continues operating on the remaining PSU if one fails. Consult Aruba CX 8360-12C QuickSpecs for PSU slot configuration details.

Is JL601A compatible with other Aruba CX 8360 models besides 8360-12C and 8360-24XF2C?

JL601A is validated for the Aruba CX 8360-12C and 8360-24XF2C. Other CX 8360 variants may use different PSU form factors or wattages. Consult Aruba CX 8360 QuickSpecs for your specific switch model to confirm the correct PSU part number.

Can the X391 PSU be replaced while the Aruba CX 8360 switch is running?

Yes — JL601A is a hot-swap PSU. With N+1 redundancy (two PSUs installed), one PSU can be removed and replaced while the switch continues operating on the remaining PSU, enabling zero-downtime maintenance in live network environments.
