Summit® X460 series – the scalable advanced aggregation
and edge switch with the revolutionary modular operating
system, ExtremeXOS®.
The Summit® X460 series is based on Extreme Networks® revolutionary
ExtremeXOS®, a highly resilient OS that provides continuous uptime, manageability
and operational eciency. Each switch oers the same high-performance, non-
blocking hardware technology, in the Extreme Networks tradition of simplifying
network deployments through the use of common hardware and software
throughout the network.
The Summit X460 switches are eective campus edge switches with IEEE 802.3at
PoE-plus and can also serve as aggregation switches for traditional enterprise
networks. The Summit X460 series is also an option for DSLAM or CMTS
aggregation, or for active Ethernet access.
The Summit X460 is can also be used as a top-of-rack switch for many data center
environments with features such as high-density Gigabit Ethernet for concentrated
data center environments; XNV™ (ExtremeXOS Network Virtualization) for
centralized network-based Virtual Machine (VM) inventory, VM location history
and VM provisioning; Direct Attach™ to ooad VM switching from servers, thereby
improving performance; high-capacity Layer 2/Layer 3 scalability for highly
virtualized data centers; and intra-rack and cross-rack stacking with industry-
leading flexibility.
