The Alpine 3808 and 3804 Ethernet Service Provisioning chassis switches are ideally suited for delivering broadband IP services to metropolitan area networks (MANs), service provider data centers, multi-tenant buildings and enterprise wiring closets. The Alpine platform provides total Ethernet coverage with support for both standard Category 5 and fiber optic media as well as first mile technologies that extend the reach of Ethernet over VDSL and legacy WAN technologies.

Both the Alpine 3808 and 3804 use an interchangeable set of power supplies, switch modules and management modules. Each switch has its own hot-swappable fan tray, which installs vertically into the front of each chassis. The Alpine 3808 has nine slots and the Alpine 3804 has five slots. Optionally, fully redundant power supplies fit into the front of the Alpine 3808 and into the rear of the Alpine 3804. The first slot of both chassis is used for the Switch Management Module (SMMi), which performs all management functions, manages the switch forwarding database and routing tables, and processes all route protocol updates. The remaining eight and four slots of the Alpine 3808 and 3804 are used for switch modules.

Switch modules for Gigabit Ethernet include:

4-port GBIC-based 1000BASE-X (GM-4Xi) module; 1000BASE-SX,LX or LX70 GBIC modules purchased separately.
4-port MT-RJ-based 1000BASE-SX (GM-4Si) module; preconfigured with four 1000BASE-SX ports.
4-port RJ-45-based 100/1000BASE-T (GM-4Ti) module; supports 100 meters of standard Category 5 unshielded twisted pair cable.

Switch modules for Fast Ethernet include:

32-port RJ-45-based 10/100BASE-TX (FM-32Ti) module; supports 100 meters of standard Category 5 unshielded twisted pair cable.
24-port RJ-21-based 10/100BASE-TX (FM-24Ti) module; uses telco interface to simplify cable management.
24-port MT-RJ-based 100BASE-FX (FM-24MFi) module; supports full-duplex operation over 2 Km multimode fiber.
24-port MT-RJ-based 100BASE-FX (FM-24SFi) module; supports full-duplex operation over 15 Km single mode fiber.

Metro and regional area network switch modules:

Wavelength Division Multiplexing (GM-WDMi) module multiplexes four Gigabit Ethernet channels onto a single fiber.

Ethernet in the First Mile modules:

Four-port RJ-48-based T1 WAN (WM-4T1) module; supports Ethernet over legacy WAN infrastructure.
Eight-port RJ-21-based 10BASE-TX Ethernet over VDSL (FM-8Vi) module; supports Category 1/2/3 unshielded twisted pair cable up to 2500 feet.

ExtremeWare Licenses

Basic Layer 3 ExtremeWare license is standard, includes support for all Layer 2 switching protocols, IP routing using RIP v1/v2, and ESRP.
As an option, the Full Layer 3 ExtremeWare license can be purchased to add IP routing using OSPF and full-featured BGP4, IP multicast routing using DVMRP, PIM-DM or PIM-SM, server load balancing, and transparent web-cache redirection.
