The Extreme Networks SLX 9850 (part number BR-SLX9850-4-BND-DC) is a modular routing chassis designed for high-density carrier and data center deployments. The four-slot configuration supports one management module, five switch fabric modules, two 3,000 W DC power supplies, and three fan modules for redundancy and thermal management. This architecture enables line-rate packet processing and fabric throughput suitable for large-scale IP routing, MPLS, and multi-service edge applications. The SLX 9850 supports multiple line-card options for flexible port density and interface types including Ethernet and specialized connectivity. DC power input makes this unit suitable for environments with existing DC infrastructure, reducing conversion losses and improving efficiency in telecom and data center settings.
The chassis design emphasizes operational reliability through modular component replacement and N+1 redundancy in power and cooling systems. Typical deployments include regional IP backbone routing, service provider aggregation points, and large-scale data center interconnect gateways. Compatible with Extreme's ExtremeRouting OS and management ecosystem.
