Description

The Extreme Networks SLX9740-80C-AC-R is a powerful modular switch designed to meet the escalating bandwidth demands of modern data centers and high-performance networks. With 80 ports capable of 100 Gigabit Ethernet (100GbE) via QSFP28 interfaces, it provides exceptional port density and throughput for aggregation and core network layers. This switch is built for demanding environments, offering high switching capacity, typically in the range of 16 Terabits per second (Tbps) or higher, ensuring that traffic flows efficiently without bottlenecks. The 'AC-R' designation often implies specific power supply and fan configurations optimized for data center airflow, usually front-to-back or rear-to-front, to ensure proper cooling in dense rack deployments. Designed for scalability and reliability, the SLX9740 series is a cornerstone for building robust, high-speed network infrastructures. It supports advanced features required for data center operations, including sophisticated Quality of Service (QoS), robust routing protocols, and high availability mechanisms, making it suitable for large-scale cloud providers, service providers, and enterprise data centers.
