HPE Networking EX Series Switches: AI-Powered, Cloud-Driven Performance

Leave the complexity and risk of legacy wired networks behind. The HPE Networking EX Series represents a fundamental shift in enterprise networking, built on an AI-native, cloud-managed, and secure-by-design architecture. Say goodbye to tedious manual configurations, endless troubleshooting, and operational gaps that put your business at risk. These switches are engineered to deliver a predictable, reliable, and secure experience for every user and device.

Powered by the industry-leading Juniper Mist AI engine, the EX Series transforms network operations from reactive to proactive. By leveraging rich telemetry and machine learning, your network becomes self-driving—automating tasks, identifying issues before they impact users, and providing your IT team with actionable insights. This isn't just an upgrade; it's a new, intelligent foundation for your campus, branch, and data center environments, delivering unparalleled performance and dramatically lower operational costs.

Experience the Self-Driving Network

The intelligence of the HPE Networking EX Series lies in its deep integration with the Juniper Mist Wired Assurance cloud platform. This powerful combination brings AIOps to your wired infrastructure, simplifying every stage of the network lifecycle. From Day 0, Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) gets new sites and switches online in minutes, not days. Through Day 2 and beyond, Mist AI continuously optimizes performance, automates troubleshooting, and provides unprecedented visibility into the user experience.

This modern microservices cloud architecture ensures your network is always agile, resilient, and scalable. Security is embedded at the core, not bolted on. The EX Series facilitates a robust Zero Trust security model through identity-based access policies and microsegmentation, while features like MACsec AES-256 encryption protect your data in transit. It’s a holistic approach that secures your infrastructure while simplifying management for your team.
