Several dierent hardware accessories are available for expanding the capabilities of your Extreme
Networks switch. Collectively, they are referred to as expansion modules.
• Versatile interface modules (VIM) are installed in one dedicated slot in the front of the switch to
provide a dedicated 10/25/40G high speed port. If no module is installed, the option slot is covered
by a blank panel.
• Solid-state Drives (SSDs) provide modular storage support.
The following table lists the types of expansion modules and the switch series with which they are
compatible.
