Extreme Networks launched two solutions aimed at enhancing network connectivity, security, and application performance for highly distributed enterprises.
The first is the AP5020, a Wi-Fi 7 Universal Access Point (AP) operating on the 6 GHz spectrum. This AP is specifically designed to cater to high-bandwidth, latency-sensitive applications, and IoT devices, enabling enterprises to modernize and manage their operations more effectively.
The second introduction is the 4000 Series cloud-managed switches, a new addition to Extreme’s Universal portfolio. These switches are notable for their rapid setup capabilities, as they largely eliminate the need for manual configurations. When used in conjunction with ExtremeCloud Universal ZTNA, these switches support automated onboarding, configuration, and policy enforcement, which bolsters security as organizations transition to a Zero Trust architecture across their networks.
Highlights:
- The AP5020: A versatile, cloud-managed Wi-Fi 7 Access Point capable of supporting bandwidth-intensive and latency-sensitive applications and IoT devices, enhancing user experience and operational efficiency in high-density settings.
- IoT Capabilities: The AP5020 includes dual IoT radios that support multiple IoT devices and protocols, reducing total ownership cost and operational complexity. Power Over Ethernet (PoE) Failover: Ensures uninterrupted connectivity in critical environments like healthcare and education. Enhanced Security: Features a dedicated security sensor for wireless intrusion prevention, pairing with Extreme AirDefense to enhance network security and performance.
- The 4000 Series Switches: Comprising the 4120 and 4220 families, these switches are part of Extreme’s Universal Switching portfolio, designed for easy deployment and management.
- Instant Stacking: Simplifies setup across multiple switches. Instant Port and Secure Port: Eliminates manual port configuration and integrates authentication and policy enforcement.
- 4120 Model Features: Offers multi-gigabit and 90W PoE support on all access ports, plus 200Gb+ uplink capacity, ideal for high-density environments.
- 4220 Model Flexibility: Available in various port models with gigabit and multi-gigabit access ports, up to 90W PoE and 4 x SFP+ uplink ports.
