Extreme ExtremeSwitching VSP 9000 Switch Series - Refurbished, Used, and New
Extreme VSP 9000 switches are modular core and aggregation chassis from the Virtual Services Platform line that Avaya built around Fabric Connect (Shortest Path Bridging) and that Extreme Networks carried forward. A VSP 9000 system is a chassis with redundant control processor modules, a set of switch fabric modules, hot-swappable power supplies and fans, and up to a dozen I/O modules that provide the 1G, 10G and 40G ports. This collection covers the VSP 9000 I/O modules, sold under their EC1404 part numbers, which are what most owners need to add ports or replace a failed card. NetworkTigers sells VSP 9000 modules and chassis parts refurbished, used and new. Every unit is tested before it ships so it works when it arrives.

Which VSP 9000 module do I need?
Start from the generation. The modules marked -2, the 9048XS-2 and 9012QQ-2, are second-generation I/O modules and need second-generation switch fabric modules in the chassis; the first-generation 9024XL, 9048GB and 9048GT run on either fabric. If you are unsure which fabric you have, send us the part numbers from your fabric modules and we will confirm before you order. Then pick by port: 9048GT for copper 1G servers and closets, 9048GB where you need 1G over fiber, 9024XL or 9048XS-2 for 10G, and 9012QQ-2 for 40G links to other cores or to high-density 10G breakouts. Check that your chassis has a free I/O slot and that the installed power supplies cover the added module, since high-density 10G and 40G cards draw more than the 1G cards. Finally, match the software version across the control processors, because a new module needs a release that supports it.
Frequently asked questions
Can a VSP 9000 I/O module be installed with the chassis running?
Yes. I/O modules are hot-insertable in a VSP 9000 chassis. Insert the module, wait for it to be recognized by the active control processor, then configure the ports.
Do the 40G ports on the 9012QQ-2 support breakout to 10G?
Yes. Each QSFP+ port can be configured as one 40G link or split into four 10G links with a breakout cable, which makes the 9012QQ-2 a dense 10G card as well as a 40G card.
Are the Avaya and Extreme versions of these modules interchangeable?
Yes. The EC1404 part numbers are the same under either label, and a module pulled from an Avaya-branded chassis runs in an Extreme-branded one on the same release.
