When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.
Workgroup Aggregation
Connect up to 10 workstations, printers, and IP phones with managed traffic prioritization and security policies.
Server Room Edge
Provide dedicated switching for server racks with port mirroring for monitoring and VLAN segmentation for security.
Physical Profile
The switch features a durable metal chassis with dimensions optimized for standard 19-inch rack mounting. At 1.75" (44.45 mm) high, it consumes minimal vertical space while providing full front-panel port access. The weight of 1.32 kg ensures stable mounting without excessive load on rack rails.
The physical profile is practical for deployment planning because the dimensions and weight are clearly defined: 1.75" (44.45 mm), 8.43" (214.12 mm), 7.63" (193.80 mm), 1.32 kg. This helps confirm rack, shelf, desk, or cabinet fit before installation.

FAQ
How many devices can I connect to this Extreme Networks switch?
The V300-8P-2T-W provides 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports, allowing direct connection of up to 10 network devices such as computers, printers, IP phones, or servers. As a managed Layer 2 switch, it also supports VLAN segmentation to logically separate these devices into different network groups while sharing the same physical hardware.
What Layer 2 features does this switch support?
This managed switch includes comprehensive Layer 2 functionality including IGMP snooping for efficient multicast traffic handling, port mirroring for network monitoring and troubleshooting, and spanning tree protocol (STP) for preventing network loops. These features provide network administrators with control over traffic flow, security policies, and network stability in business environments.
What is the power consumption of this switch?
The switch operates at 129.10 watts power consumption under typical load conditions. This efficient power profile helps reduce electricity costs in always-on network environments while providing sufficient power for all 10 Gigabit ports operating at full capacity. The design includes power-saving features that adjust consumption based on port utilization.
Can this switch be mounted in a standard server rack?
Yes, the V300-8P-2T-W is designed for standard 19-inch rack mounting with a height of 1.75U (44.45 mm). This compact form factor allows installation in most server racks, network cabinets, or wall-mounted enclosures. The switch includes appropriate mounting hardware and supports both front-to-back and back-to-front airflow configurations for flexible thermal management.
What type of network cables does this switch support?
This switch supports twisted pair Ethernet cables (10/100/1000Base-T) including Cat5e, Cat6, and Cat6a cables. It is compatible with standard RJ45 connectors and supports cable lengths up to 100 meters per the Ethernet specification. The auto-MDI/MDIX feature eliminates the need for crossover cables, allowing straight-through cables to be used for all connections.
What is the difference between this managed switch and an unmanaged switch?
Unlike unmanaged switches that provide basic connectivity without configuration options, this managed Layer 2 switch offers advanced features including VLAN support for network segmentation, QoS for traffic prioritization, port security controls, and monitoring capabilities like port mirroring. These management features allow network administrators to optimize performance, enhance security, and troubleshoot issues more effectively in business networks.
