Supported hardware and software

The ExtremeSwitching SLX 9150 Series switches are purpose-built high density 1/10/25/40/100GbE fixed form factor switches designed for the needs of Enterprise data centers and service providers. The SLX 9150 switch is a fixed 1/10/25/40/100GbE top-of-rack leaf switch with 32 MB of packet buffer and an overall throughput of 2 Tbps in and out nonblocking switching capacity. It offers forty-eight 1/10/25 GbE SFP28 ports and 8 100/40 GbE QSFP28 ports.

The SLX 9150 Series switches run the Extreme SLX-OS operating system.
