Extreme Networks 8820-40C 40-port 100Gb Switch Router

Cloud and 5G demand high performance networks that provide the necessary connectivity, bandwidth, and speed in large data centers for enterprises and service providers.

The Extreme 8820 platforms serve as demarcation between the enterprise networks and the service provider networks (Internet) where the ISP connections terminate. Basic requirements include support for a full Internet routing table, mainstream routing protocols BGP, OSPF and IS-IS, EVPN VxLAN, ACLs, BGP Internet peering scale, MPLS, deep buffer, device management, and entry level DDoS protection.

Extreme Networks offers a choice for selecting the right routing solution to meet your business needs. The options include the Extreme 8820 (1U) with 40 x 100 GbE ports and the Extreme 8820 (2U) with 80 x 100 GbE ports to deliver cost-effective solutions for the most demanding Enterprise and Service Provider customers.

As part of Extreme’s Trusted Delivery initiative, the Extreme 8000 Series of Universal switches introduce powerful security enhancements with a combination of Secure Boot technology, enhanced by an industry-first Measured Boot implementation. Measured Boot extends the security posture of the system into the execution of the operating system itself for greater protection against threats.
