Extreme Networks Data Sheet

Enterprise IT managers have limited time or resourc-

es to deal with overly complex, specialized network

infrastructure solutions. BlackDiamond 8800 series

switches from Extreme Networks

simplify the

architecture. Purpose-built core, aggregation, edge

and Data Center modules can meet your chassis

needs across the network. Traditional three-tier

architectures can be replaced with a streamlined

two-tier network that reduces management overhead,

operational complexity and capital expenditures.

BlackDiamond 8800 series switches deliver voice-class

availability, high-density Power over Ethernet (PoE),

Gigabit Ethernet, and 10 Gigabit Ethernet wherever

it’s needed. With three families of modules to choose

from, the BlackDiamond 8800 series switches can

support a wide variety of applications. It serves well as

a high-performance Enterprise core and Data Center

switch. The ports interconnect thousands of servers

for High Performance Cluster Computing (HPCC). A

full range of Layer 2 - 4 features for IPv4 and IPv6

allow the aggregation of high-speed connections,

minimizing bottlenecks between edge and core.

BlackDiamond 8800 ﬁts well at the edge of the most

demanding enterprises, with Voice-over-IP, video,

wireless and data trafﬁc. The multifaceted

BlackDiamond 8800 series switches support IPv6

today, preparing the Enterprise for the future.

Target Applications

• High-performance core switch for medium to

large Enterprise networks

• High-density switch providing low-latency connec-

tions at low power for data centers and HPCC

• Cost-effective wiring closet/edge switch for small

to medium enterprises

BlackDiamond

8800 series switches simplify

the Enterprise network.

High Availability

• Redundant system design

• Modular ExtremeXOS

Operating System (OS) for

non-stop operations

• Ethernet Automatic Protection Switching (EAPS)

resiliency protocol

High-Performance Connectivity at

Low Power

• High-density gigabit and 10 Gigabit Ethernet switch

• Large switching capacity capable of supporting 2,840 Mpps

• Convergence-ready connectivity with Voice-over-IP (VoIP)

automatic provisioning

• Flexible connectivity options for multiple applications

• Low power consumption for reduced power and cooling costs

Comprehensive Security Providing

Defense-In-Depth

• Universal Port dynamic security proﬁle to provide ﬁne-

grained security policies

• Threat detection and response instrumentation to react to

network intrusion with CLEAR-Flow Security Rules Engine

• Hardened network infrastructure

The BlackDiamond 8800 series of switches provides unparalleled

investment protection. Past and current generations of modules

are compatible with any BlackDiamond 8800 series chassis.
