Pluggable Interfaces for the Switches on page 117
The ExtremeSwitching switches are compact enclosures 1.75 inches high (1 U). Each switch model
provides high-density copper or fiber optic ports operating at speeds up to 100 Gbps. On some models,
these ports can be partitioned into data lanes through the use of split cables, eectively increasing the
port count. Many models also provide combination copper/fiber uplink ports. PoE connections and
options for adding faster uplink connections are available on some models.
Models are available for AC or DC power connection, and many models provide bays for pluggable
power supplies. All switches make provision for redundant power supplies.
Many ExtremeSwitching switches include high-speed stacking interfaces that allow you to connect up
to eight switches into a stack, which can be managed as a single entity.
