ReachNXT 100-8t
100-8t is an 8-port 10/100 Fast Ethernet port extender
ReachNXT 100-8t extends the revolutionary ExtremeXOS core-class operating system from Extreme Networks to the network access. ReachNXT 100-8t provides users with a consistent ExtremeXOS experience at an affordable price. It is best suited for network access applications where easy network deployment is required.
The compact and quiet ReachNXT 100-8t enterprise-class port extender provides 8 Fast Ethernet ports plus 1 Gigabit Ethernet combination copper/SFP fiber port. An optional power adapter provides the ReachNXT 100-8t with power when the SFP fiber port is used.
Ease of Management Supporting Rapid Network Deployment
ReachNXT 100-8t is a 10/100BASE-T port extender that can aggregate traffic from a small department, multiple stand-alone devices, or similar applications. ReachNXT 100-8t connects to an upstream ExtremeXOS switch via plug-and-play, providing a consistent user experience from core to edge to access of the network. The auto-discovery function allows the ReachNXT 100-8t and the ExtremeXOS switch to recognize each other and appear in Ridgeline™ network and service management. Key features and benefits include:
- Ease of management and operations lower network costs
- Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) simplifies deployment, troubleshooting and firmware management
- Kensington slot for physical security
Ease of Management Supporting
Rapid Network Deployment
• Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) provides information
for device management by the upstream switch
• Includes built-in firmware management
Network Security
• By extending ExtremeXOS, ReachNXT 100-8t can provide the
same level of user security over the network as the upstream
ExtremeXOS switch
• Automated network login and authentication reduce operator
efforts and errors
Theft Deterrents
• ReachNXT 100-8t will operate only if connected to an upstream
ExtremeXOS switch
• Kensington lock slot is built in to the ReachNXT 100-8t for
added physical security
Ease of Management and Operations
Lower Network Costs
• The plug-and-play simplicity of ReachNXT 100-8t reduces
network operations cost as no configuration is required
• ReachNXT 100-8t provides fiber-to-copper media conversion
from its 1000BASE-X SFP port to eight of its 10/100BASE-T
ports
ReachNXT 100-8t provides 8 ports 10/100BASE-T with autospeed and auto-polarity, and a combo 10/100/1000BASE-T (for Power over Ethernet input) or 1000BASE-X SFP port (shared PHY). ReachNXT 100-8t also provides fiber-to-copper media conversion from its 1000BASE-X SFP port to its eight 10/100BASE-T ports.
