ExtremeSwitching X440-G2-24t-10GE4: Scalable, High-Performance Edge Switch

1. Product Overview

The ExtremeSwitching X440-G2-24t-10GE4 is a high-performance, cost-effective edge switch designed for modern enterprise networks. Powered by the resilient ExtremeXOS operating system, it delivers reliable Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching, advanced security, and flexible stacking capabilities. Ideal for campus and branch deployments, this switch supports PoE, cloud management, and high-density Gigabit Ethernet connectivity.

2. Key Features

• 24 x 10/100/1000BASE-T ports + 4 combo SFP ports
• 4 x 1GbE SFP uplink ports (upgradable to 10GbE via license)
• Support for ExtremeCloud™ management
• IEEE 802.3at PoE-Plus support
• SummitStack-V stacking (up to 8 units)
• Role-based policy enforcement
• Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE)
• Redundant power supply (RPS) support

3. Supported Technologies & Standards

• IEEE 802.3ab, 802.3z, 802.3ae, 802.3at, 802.3az
• IPv4/IPv6 routing
• Audio Video Bridging (AVB)
• Bidirectional ACLs, QoS, bandwidth policing
• ExtremeXOS with SDN (OpenFlow) support

4. How It Works

The X440-G2-24t-10GE4 operates as a fully non-blocking switch, processing traffic at wire speed with less than 4 microseconds of latency. It uses role-based policies to enforce security and access controls, and supports SummitStack-V for virtual stacking over standard 10GbE optics. PoE capabilities allow it to power devices like IP phones, cameras, and wireless access points directly from the switch.

5. Applications

• Enterprise campus networks
• Education and healthcare facilities
• Retail and hospitality environments
• IP surveillance and VoIP deployments
• Wireless access point aggregation
