The Virtual Services Platform (VSP) 4900 Series is the next generation of Extreme Fabric Connect fixed-form factor switches designed for network edge and aggregation deployments. Available in four models to address a range of campus, remote site, and multiservice needs, the 4900 Series enables end-to-end fabric services from network edge to aggregation to core, as well as transparent extension of fabric services to the branch.
Multiple models support 1GbE 30W PoE, 1Gb or 10GbE SFP/SFP+ fiber, and 1GbE, 2.5GbE, 5GbE, or 10GbE multirate 60W PoE access ports. With modular uplink support at 10Gb, 25Gb, and 40Gb, VSP 4900 switches can be linked to other switches or devices over a range of media. This provides high-performance, resilient, and secure Gigabit and multi-Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, enabling VSP 4900 switches to leverage advanced capabilities that enable full-featured network virtualization to be flexibly deployed across a range of network environments.
The VSP 4900 Series supports advanced Layer 3 services, including IPv4 and IPv6 dynamic routing as well as IP multicast services. This enables it to satisfy conventional IP routing deployments in addition to its fabric-based services.
VSP 4900 models support Distributed Virtual Routing (DVR) leaf services, IP routing technologies (such as RIPv1/2, RIPng, and OSPFv2/v3), as well as multicast services (such as PIM-SM/ SSM, IGMP v1, 2, and 3) and Fabric Connect to PIM gateway.
The VSP 4900 Series can be managed by ExtremeCloud IQ and ExtremeCloud IQ — Site Engine for centralized switch management, giving you a consolidated view of users, devices, and applications across wired and wireless networks.
