Summit 200-24 Switch Physical Features
The Summit 200-24 switch is a compact enclosure (see Figure 1) one rack unit in height (1.75 inches or
44.45 mm) that provides 24 autosensing 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports using RJ-45 connectors. It also
provides two 10/100/1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports using RJ-45 connectors and two optical
ports that also allow Gigabit Ethernet uplink connections through Extreme 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX,
or 1000BASE-ZX Small Form Factor pluggable (SFP) Gigabit Interface Connectors (GBICs)—also known
as mini-GBICs—using LC optical fiber connectors.

NOTE
See “Summit 200-24 Switch LEDs” on page 18 for more details.
Console Port
Use the console port (9-pin, “D” type connector) for connecting a terminal and carrying out local
management.
Port Connections
The Summit 200-24 switch has 24 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports using RJ-45 connectors for
communicating with end stations and other devices over 10/100Mbps Ethernet.
The switch also has four Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports. These ports are labeled 25 and 26 on the front
panel of the switch. Two of the ports are 10/100/1000BASE-T ports using RJ-45 connectors. The other
two ports are unpopulated receptacles for mini-SFP GBICs, using optical fibers with LC connectors. The
Summit 200-24 switch supports the use of 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX, or 1000BASE-ZX mini-GBICs.
NOTE
Only mini-GBICs that have been certified by Extreme Networks (available from Extreme Networks)
should be inserted into the mini-GBIC receptacles on the Summit 200 series switch.
Only two of the four Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports can be active at one time. For example, you can use
both 1000BASE-T ports, both mini-GBIC ports, or a combination of one 1000BASE-T port and one
mini-GBIC.
NOTE
For information on the mini-GBIC, see “Mini-GBIC Type and Hardware/Software Support” on page 23.
Summit 200-24 Switch Uplink Redundancy
Gigabit Ethernet uplink redundancy on the Summit 200-24 switch follows these rules:
• Ports 25 and 26 are Gigabit Ethernet ports that have redundant PHY interfaces, one mini-GBIC and
one 1000BASE-T connection for each port.
• Each of the uplink Gigabit Ethernet ports (25 and 26) can use either the m ini-GBIC or the
1000BASE-T interface, but not both simultaneously.
• Only one interface on each port can be active at a time. For example, on port 25, with both the
mini-GBIC and 1000BASE-T interfaces connected, only one interface can be activated. The other is
inactive. If both interfaces are connected, the switch defaults to the fiber interface (mini-GBIC) and
deactivates the 1000BASE-T interface.
• If only one interface is connected, the switch activates the connected interface.
• To set up a redundant link on port 25, connect the active fibre and 1000BASE-T links to both the
RJ-45 and mini-GBIC interfaces of port 25. The switch defaults to the fi ber link. If the fiber link fails
during operation, the switch automatically activates the redundant 1000BASE-T link.

Summit 200 Series Switch Overview
NOTE
To suppor t automatic failover between the fiber and copper ports, you must use an Extreme mini-GBIC
connector.
Full-Duplex
The Summit 200-24 switch provides full-duplex support for all ports. Full-duplex allows frames to be
transmitted and received simultaneously and, in effect, doubles the bandwidth available on a link. All
10/100 Mbps ports on the Summit 200-24 switch autonegotiate for half- or full-duplex operation.

Summit 200-48 Switch Physical Features
NOTE
When configuring the Summit 200-48 switch, all ports specified as mirrored ports and mirroring por t, or
ACL ingress ports and egress port, must belong to the same port group. Port group 1 consists of ports
1 through 24 and port 49; port group 2 consists of ports 25 through 48 and port 50.
Gigabit Ethernet Port Failover Speed
The Summit 200-48 switch Gigabit Ethernet port failover from the fiber link to the copper link takes 3-4
seconds. The Summit 200-48 switch Gigabit Ethernet port failover from the co pper link to the fiber link
takes 1-2 seconds.
Summit 200-48 Switch Uplink Redundancy
Gigabit Ethernet uplink redundancy on the Summit 200-48 switch follows these rules:
• Ports 49 and 50 are Gigabit Ethernet ports that have redundant PHY interfaces, one mini-GBIC and

Mini-GBIC Type and Hardware/Software Support
The Summit 200 series switch supports the SFP GBIC, also known as the mini-GBIC, in three types: the
SX mini-GBIC, which conforms to the 1000BASE-SX st andard, the LX mini-GBIC, which conforms to the
1000BASE-LX standard, and the ZX mini-GBIC, a long-haul mini-GBIC that conforms to the IEEE 802.3z
standard. The system uses identifier bits to determine the media type of the mini-GBIC that is installed.
The Summit 200 series switches support only the SFP mini-GBIC.
NOTE
Only mini-GBICs that have been certified by Extreme Networks (available from Extreme Networks)
should be inserted into the mini-GBIC receptacles on the Summit 200 series switch.
This section describes the mini-GBIC types and specifications.

Total optical system budget for the SX mini-GBIC is 11.5 dB. Extreme Networks recommends that 3 dB
of the total budget be reserved for losses induced by cable splices, connectors, and operating margin.
While 8.5 dB remains available for cable-induced attenuation, the 1000BASE-SX standard specifies
supported distances of 275 meters over 62.5 micron multimode fiber and 550 meters over 50 micron
multimode fiber. There is no minimum attenuation or minimum cable length restriction.

General
Total system budget13.5 dB
Total optical system budget for the LX mini-GBIC is 13.5 dB. Measure cable plant losses with a 1310 nm
light source and verify this to be within budget. When calculating the maximum distance attainable
using optical cable with a specified loss per kilometer (for example 0.25 dB/km) Extreme Networks
recommends that 3 dB of the total budget be reserved for losses induced by cable splices, connectors,
and operating margin. Thus, 10.5 dB remains available for cable induced attenuation. There is no
minimum attenuation or minimum cable length restriction.

equipment room. Two mounting bracke ts are supplied with the switch.
When deciding where to install the switch, ensure that:
• The switch is accessible and cables can be connected easily.
• Water or moisture cannot enter the case of the unit.
• Air-flow around the unit and through the vents in the side of the case is not restricted. You should
provide a minimum of 1 inch (25 mm) clearance.
• No objects are placed on top of the unit.
• Units are not stacked more than four high if the switch is free-standing.
