The ExtremeSwitching V400 Series is a scalable cost-effective family of edge switches powered by Extreme Networks ExtremeXOS (EXOS) software, a highly resilient OS providing continuous uptime, advanced services and operational efficiency. As the edge component of Extreme's Extended Edge Switching solution, the V400 provides access switch capabilities, while being controlled by a remote EXOS aggregation switch. This allows the V400 to seamlessly extend all the feature-rich services of the EXOS aggregation switch to the network edge.
- Scalable family of edge switches centrally powered by ExtremeXOS software
- Edge component of Extreme's Extended Edge Switching solution
- Seamlessly runs advanced services residing on ExtremeXOS aggregation switch
- Centralized, single point of control reduces complexity and operational costs
- Plug and play edge installation - just connect and power-up
Centralized management and control
All V400 models support standards-based control and data plane technology based on the IEEE 80 2.1BR specification, allowing for centralized management and intelligent service delivery from a central EXOS aggregation switch. The EXOS aggregation switch also acts as a single point of V400 configuration and control for reduced complexity and operational costs.
Plug and play installation
V400 Series units can be quickly installed in a plug and play manner. Once the unit is physically connected and powered up, the V400 automatically finds the central EXOS aggregation switch and downloads its configuration. There's no need to connect a local console to set-up the V400 unit or its ports.
Power over Ethernet support
V400 Series switches support both IEEE 802.3at PoE+ and IEEE 802.3af PoE to enable connection of standards compliant PoE devices today.
