ExtremeSwitching™ SLX® 9240

As data centers and cloud service providers embrace new highperformance servers and distributed applications, they increasingly need dense 100/40 GbE switches for leaf-and-spine topologies. Traditionally, infrastructure has been slow to evolve, and it can be a barrier to innovation. With flexibility at all layers of the data center stack, IT teams can drive agility. The ExtremeSwitching SLX 9240 Switch is designed to help organizations stay ahead of this application- and data-driven network transformation without compromising performance

The SLX 9240 delivers the high-density 100 GbE connectivity required by high-end enterprise and cloud data centers. The underlying hardware is programmable, enabling a faster transition to emerging protocols and new technologies. Workload visibility combined with end-to-end network visibility helps infrastructure teams continue to improve SLAs as they increase network virtualization. In addition, the SLX 9240, coupled with Extreme Workflow Composer™ and Extreme Workflow Composer Automation Suites, simplifies end-to-end network management, including turnkey provisioning, validation, and troubleshooting of workflows
