Extreme Networks X435-24T-4S 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch

Product Overview

The Extreme Networks X435-24T-4S is a high-performance, standalone Layer 2 Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for distributed enterprises, branch offices, and small to medium-sized business sites. Part of the versatile X435 Series, this model delivers 24 copper ports for access layer connectivity, complemented by four 1G/2.5G SFP uplink slots for flexible aggregation. It is engineered to provide reliable, secure, and cost-effective networking with advanced features like cloud management via ExtremeCloud™ IQ and automated Fabric Attach for simplified network fabric integration. These Extreme Switches are built for environments requiring robust performance without complexity.

Key Characteristics

• 24 x 10/100/1000BASE-T Ports: Auto-sensing, full/half-duplex RJ-45 ports for edge device connectivity.
• 4 x 1G/2.5G SFP Uplink Ports: Fiber optic support for high-speed backbone connections.
• Fanless Design: Ensures silent operation, ideal for noise-sensitive environments like offices and clinics.
• Cloud Management: Centralized control via ExtremeCloud IQ or ExtremeCloud IQ – Site Engine.
• Fabric Attach: Enables automated zero-touch provisioning for Extreme Fabric Connect networks.
• Layer 2 Switching & Static Routing: Provides advanced networking capabilities.
• Out-of-Band Management Port: Dedicated port for secure management traffic.

Core Technologies & Standards

The X435-24T-4S leverages Extreme's robust ExtremeXOS® operating system and supports key industry standards:

• IEEE Standards: 802.3ab (1000BASE-T), 802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet), 802.3bz (2.5GBASE-X*).
• Audio Video Bridging (AVB): IEEE 802.1 AVB for real-time multimedia transmission.
• Management: ExtremeCloud IQ, CLI, Web-based GUI.
• Fabric Technology: Fabric Attach for automated service provisioning.

*2.5Gb uplink support is a future capability, qualified with specific transceivers.

Typical Applications

The X435 Series, including the 24T-4S model, is ideally deployed in:

• Enterprise Branch Offices: Providing reliable wired access for users and devices.
• Small and Medium Businesses (SMBs): As a core access layer switch.
• Educational Institutions: Connecting classrooms and administrative offices.
• Healthcare Facilities: Silent operation makes it suitable for patient areas.
• Retail Environments: Supporting POS systems, IP cameras, and wireless access points.

Specifications & Selection Guide

Competitive Advantages

• Superior Uplink Flexibility: Four SFP slots ready for 1G or future 2.5G fiber transceivers provide more uplink options than many comparable access switches.
• Centralized Cloud Management: Reduces operational overhead with ExtremeCloud IQ, offering a significant advantage over solutions requiring on-premise controllers.
• Zero-Touch Fabric Integration: Fabric Attach technology simplifies deployment into SDN-enabled fabrics, a feature not commonly found in switches in this class.
• Proven ExtremeXOS Reliability: Benefits from the same robust operating system used in Extreme's flagship switches, ensuring stability and advanced feature sets.
• Silent Operation: The fanless design offers a distinct benefit for office and retail environments where noise is a concern.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Does the X435-24T-4S support Power over Ethernet (PoE)?
A: No, the X435-24T-4S is a non-PoE model. For PoE requirements, please consider the X435-24P-4S model from the same series.

Q: Can the SFP ports operate at 2.5GbE?
A: Yes, but as a future capability. With ExtremeXOS 32.2 or later and qualified transceivers, the SFP ports can operate at 2.5Gb speeds when connecting to a compatible device like an Extreme 5520 series switch.

Q: How is this switch managed?
A: It can be managed centrally via the cloud-based ExtremeCloud IQ platform or locally via the built-in web GUI or command-line interface (CLI).

Q: Is the power cord included?
A: In support of green initiatives, a power cord is not included in the box but can be ordered separately based on your regional standards.

Important Precautions

• Ensure the operating environment remains within the specified temperature (0°C to 45°C) and humidity (10% to 95% non-condensing) ranges.
• Verify compatibility of SFP transceivers using the Extreme Optics Compatibility Tool before purchase and installation.
• The switch is designed for indoor use only. Adhere to all local safety and electrical codes during installation.
• For rack mounting, ensure the rack is stable and can support the switch's weight.
• Complies with EMI/EMC standards for Class A devices. This is a business environment product and may not be suitable for residential use.
