E-Rate eligible solutions from Extreme create foundation for digital and collaborative learning, help lower costs for K-12 customers

Extreme Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: EXTR), a leader in AI-powered automation for networking, today announced new E-Rate eligible solutions for K-12 schools and public libraries in the U.S, including the company's Extreme Platform ONE™, a groundbreaking technology platform that reduces complexity for customers by seamlessly integrating networking, security and AI solutions. The E-Rate program gives public K-12 schools and libraries in the U.S. funding to deploy networking solutions that help improve operations and deliver better experiences for students and faculty.

As technology becomes more integral to classrooms and educational settings, small IT teams in public schools and libraries need an efficient way to provide reliable, secure network access without compromising performance. E-Rate eligible solutions from Extreme empower educators to provide a modern learning experience while seamlessly planning for future upgrades—without the need for additional staff.

E-Rate Eligible Solutions from Extreme and Key Benefits include:

  • Extreme Platform ONE combines networking, AI and security and unifies workflows, services and data across domains, delivering customizable real-time information by persona for every team. Extreme Platform ONE offers conversational, interactive and autonomous AI agents to deliver efficiency in learning, planning, delivery, management, analysis and governance, allowing customers to flexibly adopt AI at their own pace.
  • ExtremeCloud™ IQ enables IT teams to identify and resolve network problems before they impact student learning. ExtremeCloud IQ also works with third-party devices, so schools can easily modernize infrastructure without a full rip and replace.
  • ExtremeCloud SD-WAN optimizes application performance and secure user access, no matter where users are located.
  • ExtremeCloud Universal ZTNA is the industry's simplest and most complete identity-based network access solution. It is the first network security offering to integrate network, application and device access security within a single solution. Universal ZTNA is eligible through the Cybersecurity Pilot Program.
  • Wi-Fi 7, Switching and Fabric: Eligible solutions include:
    • The AP5020, a Wi-Fi 7 Access Point designed to support high-bandwidth, latency-sensitive applications and IoT devices.
    • 4000 Series cloud-managed switches, which offer faster setup time by eliminating nearly all manual configurations, reducing the risk of manual error and dramatically reducing the time it takes to deploy and manage new switches.
    • Extreme Fabric, which unifies networks across multiple sites while increasing network security through micro-segmentation, enabling customers to separate network traffic and reduce the risk of a lateral attack.

Extreme offers expert support for all schools and libraries navigating the E-Rate application process through its E-Rate Resource Center, which includes eligibility guidelines, webinars, eBooks and other valuable resources. Extreme also offers an E-Rate eligibility lookup tool to help determine if a product is eligible by simply looking up the part number.

Executive Perspectives:

Christopher Escarsega, Network Administrator, Tornillo Independent School District "Teachers want the students to have their devices all the time, and it puts a strain on the Wi-Fi. And it's not just student devices, but teacher devices, smart displays and TVs and applications, all hitting the network... Once we installed the [Extreme] APs... I did a speed test, and I was doubling or tripling what we were getting before. And that's going to make a difference; students will have better connectivity throughout the school."

Norman Rice, Chief Commercial Officer, Extreme Networks "A robust, reliable network is transformative to both education and K-12 operations. By driving the convergence of AI, networking and security within a single application, Extreme Platform ONE will help schools maximize productivity and IT budgets while providing a solid foundation for next-generation digital learning. Extreme Platform ONE's rich automation will help teams scale with ease and accommodate the influx of new demands on the network and IT teams in a simple and more flexible way – cutting tasks from hours to minutes. Extreme also helps our customers navigate the E-Rate process by helping them identify the best solutions for their environment and guiding them through the process of eligibility, budget constraints and compliance."
