Extreme Networks X440-G2-12t-10GE4 AVB | 12-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch

The Extreme Networks X440-G2-12t-10GE4 is a high-performance, scalable edge switch designed for modern enterprise networks. It features 12 x 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, 4 x 1GbE SFP ports upgradeable to 10GbE via software license, and support for Audio Video Bridging (AVB). Built with the modular ExtremeXOS operating system, it offers advanced Layer 2/3 switching, PoE+ support, and cloud management capabilities via ExtremeCloud™.

Key Features

• 12 x Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports + 4 x SFP uplink ports (upgradable to 10GbE)
• ExtremeXOS OS with advanced security and management features
• Audio Video Bridging (AVB) support for real-time multimedia streaming
• Role-based policy enforcement and cloud management via ExtremeCloud™
• Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and redundant power support

Technology & Standards

The X440-G2 series supports a wide range of IEEE standards including 802.3ab (1000BASE-T), 802.3z (1000BASE-X), 802.3ae (10GBASE-X), 802.3at (PoE+), and 802.1 Audio Video Bridging (AVB). It also features SummitStack-V stacking technology, allowing up to 8 switches to be stacked with standard 10GbE optics.

How It Works

The switch operates at both Layer 2 and Layer 3, providing routing, switching, and policy-based traffic management. It uses hardware-based forwarding engines to deliver low-latency performance. The AVB capability ensures synchronized audio and video streaming over Ethernet, making it ideal for multimedia environments.

Applications

Ideal for enterprise edge deployments, campus networks, educational institutions, and multimedia studios. Supports VoIP, wireless access points, IP cameras, and AVB-enabled audio/video equipment.

FAQ

Q: Can the SFP ports be upgraded to 10GbE?
A: Yes, with a software license (Dual or Quad 10GbE upgrade).

Q: Does this switch support stacking?
A: Yes, via SummitStack-V using two of the uplink ports.

Q: Is AVB supported on all ports?
A: AVB is supported on a limited number of ports per switch. Refer to the datasheet for details.

Q: Is PoE supported?
A: This model (12t) does not support PoE. PoE models are available (e.g., X440-G2-12p-10GE4).

Precautions

• Do not use extended temperature models for stacking or 10GbE upgrades.
• Ensure proper ventilation and airflow to prevent overheating.
• Use only certified SFP/SFP+ modules for compatibility and warranty.
• Follow local electrical and EMC regulations during installation.
