Summit X430 Series Switches
The Summit X430 series switches provide 8, 24, or 48 Ethernet ports that deliver high-density fast
Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet connectivity using fixed 10/100/1000Base-T copper or POE+ ports, plus
four 100/1000Base-X fiber ports via SFP modules on some models.
For all models, 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. The rear panel provides
an AC power input socket.
The Summit X430 series switches include the following models:
• Summit X430-8p switch
• Summit X430-24t switch
• Summit X430-24p switch
• Summit X430-48t switch
Summit X430-24t and X430-48t switches require an ExtremeXOS version of at least 16.3.2 but not
greater than 16.x.
Summit X430-8p and X430-24p switches require an ExtremeXOS version of at least 15.5.2 but not
greater than 16.x.
Summit X430-8p Switch Ports and Slots
The front panel of the Summit X430-8p switch includes:
• Eight
fixed autosensing 10/100/1000BASE-T ports (ports 1–8) that provide 8 Gbps of high-density
copper connectivity. In addition, all of these ports (ports 1-8) also support the POE protocol
IEEE802.af and POE+ protocol IEEE 802.at standard. Using the POE protocol, the switch can provide
15.4 Watts of power on a single port up to a total power budget of 60 Watts. Using the POE+
