Flexible PoE
PoE eliminates the need for additional electrical cabling and circuits otherwise needed to power edge devices, such as IP phones or wireless APs. The X435 Series also provides the following capabilities to address the unique needs of powered edge devices: perpetual PoE which enables PoE power to be maintained during a switch restart, preventing attached IoT devices from being disrupted or rebooted during the switch reset; fast PoE which enables power to be supplied to connected edge or IoT devices before switch boot-up completion, speeding the time for powered end-points to start up.
Fanless operation
This X435 Series model is fanless. This makes it ideal for classrooms, hospitality suites, retail sites, or other noise-sensitive environments - especially outside of the wiring closet environment.
Fabric Attach
Fabric Attach on the X435 can be used to automate the connection to Extreme's campus-based Fabric Connect solution. Fabric Attach provides zero-touch edge provisioning and allows the X435 to take advantage of the virtualized services and inherent security capabilities of the Extreme Fabric Connect infrastructure.
Role-based policy
The X435 supports role-based policies centrally administered through the ExtremeControl policy manager. This policy framework empowers network administrators to define distinct roles or profiles to represent specific operational groups that may exist in an enterprise. Each defined role can then be granted individualized access to specific network services or applications - and these access privileges remain associated with users as they move across both wired and wireless network access points.
Easy management
The X435 Series can be managed in a variety of ways. Simple on-box management functions are delivered by a web-based GUI, and a generic CLI is available for manual configuration. ExtremeCloud IQ along with Extreme Management Center (XMC) also provides a comprehensive unified management capability with a consolidated view of users, devices, and applications for wired and wireless networks.
