The Alpine 3800 GM-16X3 Gigabit Ethernet Module is 16-port module powered by Extreme''s innovative Triumph technology. This high-density module provide unparalleled Gigabit Ethernet scalability, performance and control. The Alpine 3800 GM-16X3 Gigabit Ethernet Module is a 16-port 1000BASE-X mini-GBIC module that meets and exceeds the higher throughput requirements of gigabit uplinks from edge access distribution switches and high-capacity optical servers. It supports a 400% increase in Gigabit Ethernet density allowing up to 128 ports in an Alpine 3808 to better support additional high capacity applications, Gigabit Ethernet enabled servers, and end users demanding throughput far greater than the fast Ethernet connections they currently have.
