Extreme ExtremeSwitching VSP 8400 Switches - Refurbished, Used, and New
Extreme ExtremeSwitching VSP 8400 switches are modular core and aggregation switches for campus networks built on Extreme Fabric Connect. The VSP 8404C chassis takes four I/O modules, so one unit can mix 1G, 10G, 40G and 100G ports, and it runs VOSS with Shortest Path Bridging (SPB) fabric services. This collection carries the 8404C chassis, the full set of I/O modules from 24x 1G RJ45 up to 2x 100G QSFP28, and the 800W AC power supply. NetworkTigers sells VSP 8400 chassis, modules and power supplies refurbished, used and new. Every unit is tested before it ships so it works when it arrives.

Which VSP 8400 modules do I need?
Start from the chassis: one EC8400A02-E6 gives you four slots, and every port on the switch comes from the modules you put in them. Fill the slots by role. For uplinks to a second core or a data center, use the 8402CQ for 100G or the 8408QQ for 40G. For aggregation of wiring closets, the 8424XS (SFP+) covers fiber runs and the 8424XT covers short copper runs; the 8418XSQ and 8418XTQ give you 16 of those ports plus two 40G uplinks when you want both roles in one slot. The 8424GT and 8424GS are for Gigabit devices that still need to sit on the core. Optics are sold separately, so count the SFP, SFP+, QSFP+ and QSFP28 modules you need along with the cards. Order two EC8005A01-E6 supplies for redundant power, and tell us your VOSS release so we can confirm every module is supported together.
Frequently asked questions
Can VSP 8400 modules be swapped while the chassis is running?
The I/O modules and power supplies are field-replaceable, and the chassis is built for module changes in service. Follow the VOSS procedure to take a slot out of service before pulling a card so the fabric reconverges cleanly.
Does the VSP 8400 work outside a Fabric Connect network?
Yes. VOSS supports conventional Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching and routing, so the VSP 8400 can run as a standard core or aggregation switch with VLANs, OSPF and BGP, and move to SPB fabric services later without changing hardware.
Are the modules interchangeable with the VSP 8200?
No. The VSP 8200 is a fixed-port switch. The EC8404 series modules in this collection fit only the VSP 8404C chassis.
NetworkTigers has sold enterprise network equipment since 1996. Every VSP 8400 chassis, module and power supply carries the NetworkTigers 365-day warranty. Building a redundant core pair? Ask us for a quote.
