Product features
- Audio Video Bridging
The 5320 series supports IEEE 802.1 Audio Video Bridging (AVB) when running Switch Engine OS. This allows 5320 to deliver reliable, real-time audio/video transmission over Ethernet, meeting the quality of service required for today's high-definition, time-sensitive multimedia streams. - Cloud-based network management
The 5320 can be managed by ExtremeCloud IQ and ExtremeCloud IQ - Site Engine for centralized switch management, giving you a consolidated view of users, devices, and applications across wired and wireless networks for efficient inventory and network topology management. ExtremeCloud IQ enables zero touch provisioning, allowing you to quickly bring 5320 switches online as well as select the OS persona. Alternatively, 5320 on-box management can be done manually via a web-based GUI or generic command-line interface (CLI). - Ethernet Fabric services
The 5320 supports a variety of Ethernet Fabric services, including Extreme's Fabric Connect when running Fabric Engine and Extreme's IP Fabric when running Switch Engine. It also supports Fabric Attach for automated connection to either Layer 2 or Layer 3 Fabric services. Extreme's Fabric Connect and IP Fabric enable the creation of virtualized networks that automate network operations, simplify network provisioning, and enhance security, all while reducing the strain on network and IT personnel. - Power over Ethernet (PoE)
All 5320 models support PoE that conforms with IEEE 802.3at. This enables the 5320 to address the needs of powered edge devices, while eliminating the need for additional electrical cabling and circuits. In addition, 5320 PoE models support perpetual and fast PoE for even more efficient and reliable powered edge device operation. - Universal hardware platform
The 5320 comes with a dual-persona capability, allowing you to choose your OS. Either the Switch Engine (EXOS) or Fabric Engine (VOSS) OS can be selected at switch start-up or changed at a later stage. When selected, the switch assumes the features and capabilities of that OS.
