Summit X250e Series Switches
The Summit X250e series switches provide 24 or 48 Ethernet ports that deliver high-density fast
Ethernet connectivity using fixed 10/100/1000BASE-T ports or installable small form pluggable (SFP)
optical modules. Fixed-port models are available either with or without PoE. Each Summit X250e 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. 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.
On the back of the switch, two high-speed stacking ports allow you to combine multiple units into a
single SummitStack
™
management entity. The rear panel also provides an AC power input socket and a
redundant power connector. The internal AC 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 X250e 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 X250e series switches include the following switches:
● Summit X250e-24t Switch
● Summit X250e-24p Switch
● Summit X250e-24x Switch
● Summit X250e-48t Switch
● Summit X250e-48p Switch
● Summit X250e-48p-TAA Switch
