Summit X150 Series Switches
The Summit X150 series switches provide 24 or 48 fixed 10/100BASE-T Ethernet ports that deliver
high-density copper connectivity for 2.4 Gbps or 4.8 Gbps. Models are available with PoE and without
PoE. Each Summit X150 series switch has two combination ports that provide 10/100/1000 BASE-T or
SFP connectivity for 2 Gbps of copper or fiber connectivity. A serial console port on the front panel
allows you to connect a terminal and perform local management. On the back of the switch, an Ethernet
management port can be used to connect the system to a parallel management network for
administration. Alternatively, you can use an Ethernet cable to connect this port directly to a laptop to
view and locally manage the switch configurations.
The rear panel of the switch provides an AC power input socket and a redundant power connector. The
internal power supply operates from 100 VAC to 240 VAC. The switch automatically adjusts to the
supply voltage. The redundant power connector allows you to connect the switch to the EPS-160 or
EPS-500 external power supply. When a compatible external power supply is used with the Summit
X150 series switch, the internal and external power supplies are fully fault tolerant and load-sharing.
If one power supply fails, the other power supply will provide sufficient power to operate the switch.
The Summit X150e series switches include the following switches:
● Summit X150-24t Switch
● Summit X150-24p Switch
● Summit X150-48t Switch
Summit X150-24t Switch
The front panel of the Summit X150-24t switch (Figure 1) includes:
● Twenty-four fixed autosensing 10/100BASE-T ports (ports 1–24) that provide 2.4 Gbps of
high-density copper connectivity
● Two combination ports (ports 25–26) using RJ-45 connectors and SFPs to provide 2 Gbps of copper
or fiber connectivity
For information about SFPs, see the Extreme Networks Pluggable Interface Modules Installation Guide.
● LEDs to indicate port status and switch operating conditions. For a description of the LEDs and their
operation, see “Summit X150 Series Switch LEDs” on page 18.
● Serial console port used to connect a terminal and perform local management.
