Features:

Flexible Deployment Options

The X870 can handle a wide range of high bandwidth applications, including high-density 10Gb top of rack aggregation, emerging 25Gb and 50Gb Ethernet, and 100Gb spineleaf fabric deployments. The X870 offers unique flexibility for high bandwidth 100Gb spine fabric applications and high densit y 10Gb and 25Gb edge leaf aggregation, all with a proven ExtremeXOS operating system. A wide variet y of QSFP+ optical transceivers and cables can be used to support 10Gb and 40Gb Ethernet, while QSFP28 optical transceivers can be used to support 25Gb, 50Gb and 100Gb Ethernet applications.

ExtremeXOS Intelligent L2/L3 Switching

The ExtremeSwitching X870 family supports sophisticated, intelligent Layer 2 switching, as well as Layer 3 IPv4/ IPv6 routing, including policy-based switching and routing. The X690 simplifies network operation with the ExtremeXOS modular operating system, which is used across a wide range of ExtremeSwitching networking products. The high availability ExtremeXOS operating system reduces operational overhead through the use of a single OS across the network.

High-Performance 400Gb Stacking

The X870 support s SummitStack-V400 400Gbps high speed stacking using 2 10Gb ports. Up to 8 X590, X690 or X870 systems can be stacked via SummitStack-V400 cables using any of the supported 100Gb QSFP28 direct attach cables for the stacking links.
