Plug and Play Installation
V300 Series units can be quickly installed in a plug and
play manner. Once the unit is physically connected to the
ExtremeXOS aggregation switch, the V300 automatically
identifies itself and downloads its configuration. There’s
no need to connect a local console for set-up of the V300
device or its ports.
Diverse Models for Dierent Use Cases
The V300 Series is available in 5 model variants to address a
range of use cases and deployment scenarios. Models include:
• V300-8T-2X: 8 x 10/100/1000-BaseT with 2 x 1/10Gb
SFP+ uplinks
• V300-8P-2X: 8 x 10/100/1000BaseT with 30W PoE and
2 x 1/10Gb SFP+ uplinks
• V300HT-8T-2X: 8 x 10/100/1000-BaseT with 2 x 1/10Gb
SFP+ uplinks (environmentally hardened unit designed
to operate at -40C to +70C)
• V300HT-8P-2X: 8 x 10/100/1000BaseT with 30W PoE
and 2 x 1/10Gb SFP+ uplinks (environmentally hardened
unit designed to operate at -40C to +70C)
• V300-8P-2T-W: 8 x 10/100/1000BaseT 30W PoE
access with 2 x 1Gb Type 4 30/60/90W uplinks
1G and/or 10G uplink ports on the faceplate of each V300
unit can be provisioned either as uplink, cascade or ring ports,
giving administrators the option to create redundant links
or downstream cascade/ring ports to other V300 units.
Environmentally Hardened Units
The V300 Series also includes V300HT models that
can operate over extended temperature ranges from
-40C to 70C. The V300HT models also meet enhanced
environmental, safety, and regulatory compliance
requirements for environmentally hardened switches
typically used in smart cities, industry, and transportation.
Power over Ethernet Support
V300 Series switches support both IEEE 802.3at PoE+
and IEEE 802.3af PoE to enable connection of standards
compliant PoE devices today. The V300-8P-2X model
provides up to 180W of PoE power across its 8 access ports
and the V300HT-8P-2X model up to 160W of PoE power
when operating at 70C.
PoE Power from Upstream EXOS
Aggregation Switch
In addition to standard PoE models, the V300 Series
includes a PoE pass-through model—the V300-8P-
2T-W. This model draws all its required power from an
upstream EXOS aggregation switch over either of its two
Ethernet IEEE 802.3bt Type 4 (30W/60W/90W) links.
This eliminates the need for a separate power supply
unit, while still enabling the delivery of downstream PoE
power. By drawing power over both of its 90W uplinks, the
300-8P-2T-W can deliver up to 105W of downstream
PoE power.
Connection to ExtremeXOS Aggregation Switch
V300 Series switches are designed to operate in
conjunction with supported ExtremeXOS Series switches at
the aggregation layer or core of the network. These include
the 5420, 5520, X465, X590, X670-G2, and X690 Series
switches. V300 switches can be single or dual connected
to one or more ExtremeXOS systems for redundancy and
uplink bandwidth – and in the case of the V300-8P-2T-W
for additional power draw.
Ring Support for Edge Resiliency
Cascaded V300 devices can also be configured in a ring
design for additional resiliency. In a ring, the first and last
V300 devices in a cascade can be connected to the EXOS
aggregation switch. If any V300 device in the ring should
fail, trac can be re-routed in the other direction across the
ring to the EXOS aggregation switch.
