Extreme Networks S130 I/O Fabric - expansion module

S130 class I/O modules are optimized for use in wiring closets for user connectivity, in the distribution layer to aggregate edge switches, and in small and medium network cores. These modules provide high density with media flexibility and support for IEEE 802.3af PoE and IEEE 802.3at high power PoE standards. S130 class I/O modules deliver scalable triple speed performance and flexibility to ensure compatibility with today's high performance workstations, as well as legacy devices, while providing the highest levels of QoS, security, and bandwidth control via flow-based switching.

S130 class I/O modules include a unique feature that enables full line rate forwarding for bandwidth hungry workstations or when downstream switches are connected. Flex-Edge technology provides line rate forwarding through the switch even when the systems uplinks are in an oversubscribed state; this ensures that critical and time sensitive data pass through the switch to its destination at line rate, unlike inefficient methods used by other solutions on the market.
