48-port configurations without POE (power over
Ethernet), and in those configurations supporting
POE. All four models work with a power shelf that
offers three different power supplies to enable
redundant power to be designed into the network
architecture in a modular fashion.
"This is about resiliency and readiness to add
VOIP," Lucas said.
Extreme Networks is also offering a new WLAN
(wireless LAN) controller and access points that are
integrated with Extreme's security and
management software.
The new Summit WM series controllers and
Altitude 350-2 APs are designed to allow network
administrators to apply consistent security and
management policies against both wired and
wireless networks from a common console.
The modular WLAN controller appliance, available
in two models, supports the forthcoming IEEE
802.11n standard for Wi-Fi connectivity. It is
designed to scale to support a single roaming
domain for thousands of users and at the same
time better support remote branch office users by
locally bridging WLAN traffic.
The Summit WM200 switch supports 59 APs and
can be upgraded to support 100 APs. The Summit
WM 2000 switch supports up to 200 APs in a single
controller.
The ExtremeXOS 12.0, Universal Port Manager
and Summit X250 series are available now. The
WLAN controllers and AP are due later in the
quarter.
