The ExtremeSwitching switches are compact enclosures 1.75 inches high (1 U). Each switch model
provides between 8 and 72 high-density copper or
fiber optic ports operating at speeds up to 40 Gbps.
Many models also provide combination copper/fiber uplink ports. PoE connections and options for
adding 10-Gbps or 40-Gbps uplink connections are available on some models.
Many ExtremeSwitching switches include high-speed stacking interfaces that allow you to connect up
to eight switches into a single SummitStack management entity. Models are available for AC or DC
power connection; all switches make provision for redundant power supplies. Most models have
connections for optional external redundant power supplies: the Summit X450-G2 (PoE models), X460,
X460-G2, X480, X650, X670, X670-G2, and X770 switches provide two bays for pluggable power
supplies.
Most models are available in versions that are compliant with the Trade Agreements Act (TAA); these
versions are identified by a -TAA sux on the model number. Functionally, the TAA-compliant models
are completely equivalent to the matching versions that are not TAA-compliant. In all feature
descriptions, references to a specific Summit switch model also apply to the equivalent TAA-compliant
model.
