Extreme Networks Data Sheet: Summit X670-48t
Technical Specifications
the same time, the Summit X670 series oers more cost-eective 10
Gigabit Ethernet switches, for both small-sized core backbone and
traditional three-tier network architectures. Summit X670 series can
support 10 Gigabit Ethernet campus aggregation with its core class routing
and switching scalability. The Summit X670 series can support up to 16,000
IPv6 longest prefix matching routing tables, 6,000 IP ARP entries and
3,000 IP multicast group entries.
One Operating System
Extreme Networks simplifies network operation by oering one common
OS – ExtremeXOS – throughout the BlackDiamond and Summit switchIng
portfolio. From 10/100 Mbps switching products such as Summit X150 and
Summit X250e to the multi-10 gigabit core backbone BlackDiamond
modular chassis switches, all switches can run the same version of the OS,
which helps deploy, operate and maintain your entire network and reduce
operating costs.
10 Gigabit Ethernet Copper
The Summit X670-48t switch supports 48 10GBase-T interfaces.
10GBASE-T supports simpler cabling infrastructure, industry- standard and
commonly used unshielded twisted pair cable, and can support up to 100
meters with Category 6a or 55 meters with Category 6 or 5e cable. The
10GbE copper ports autonegotiate for 100Mbps, 1Gbps, or 10Gbps speeds.
10 Gigabit Ethernet SFP+
The Summit X670-48t switch supports 4 ports SFP+ optics on shared
combination ports, which can support passive copper cable for up to 10
meters. The switches also support fiber-optical cable installation with SFP+
transceivers such as 10GBASE-SR, LR, LRM, and ER. Summit X670 SFP+
ports support dual interface speeds of Gigabit Ethernet and 10 GbE. SFP+
ports can accept both gigabit SFP and 10 gigabit SFP, and depending upon
the pluggable optics you choose, SFP+ can work in both modes.
40 Gigabit Ethernet QSFP+
The Summit X670V model provides a VIM4 slot for the optional VIM4-
40G4X module. The VIM4-40G4X module supports four QSFP+ optics, and
supports up to four ports of 40 GbE. 40 GbE QSFP+ ports can accept
QSFP+ passive and active cables, as well as QSFP+ transceivers. Each 40
GbE port can be configured as a 40 GbE port or as four 10 GbE ports. The
10 GbE port mode can be supported by a 40GBASE-SR4 QSFP+
transceiver and fan-out optical cables, and is compatible with the
10GBASE-SR optical interface for distances up to 100 meters.
Low Power Consumption with Optimized
Cooling Options
The Summit X670-48t switch consumes low power and provides optimized
cooling options. Most servers installed in a standard 19-inch rack system
flow air from front to back to maximize cooling performance. Compared to
side-to-side air flow, front-to-back air flow provides more eective cooling
throughout the rack system in the data center. The Summit X670 series has
2+1 hot swappable fan tray oering eective front-to-back air flow, or
back-to-front air flow. Back-to-front air flow allows placement of 10 Gigabit
Ethernet SFP+ ports in the back side of the rack and reduces distance
between switches and servers for 10GBASE-CR SFP+ passive copper cable
installations.
Modular Operating System for
Non-Stop Operation
Preemptive Multitasking and Protected Memory
Summit X670 series switches allow each of many applications—such as
Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) and Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)—to run
as separate OS processes that are protected from each other. This drives
increased system integrity and inherently protects against DoS attacks.
Process Monitoring and Restart
ExtremeXOS increases network availability using process monitoring and
restart. Each independent OS process is monitored in real time. If a process
becomes unresponsive or stops running, it can be automatically restarted.
