Pluggable Interfaces for Summit Switches
The Summit 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 Summit 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 sux 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.
This document describes switches that are supported on ExtremeXOS version 16 and earlier. For
information about other ExtremeSwitching and Summit switches, refer to the ExtremeSwitching and
Summit Switches: Hardware Installation Guide for Switches Using ExtremeXOS 21.1 or Later.

Overview of the Summit Switches
Summit Switches
The following sections describe the Summit switches and summarize the features available in each
series.
Model numbers for the switches are in the following format:
<Series>-<number of front-panel I/O ports><port type><internal power supply type>
The number of ports ranges from 8 to 72.
•
The port type can be t (copper), p (copper providing PoE (Power over Ethernet)), q (QSFP+), or x
•
(fiber).
For models with integral power supplies, the power supply type can be AC (no designation) or DC.
•
Models with pluggable power supplies can accommodate either AC or DC supplies and have no
power designation in their model numbers.
Note
See the ExtremeXOS 22.3 User Guide and the ExtremeXOS 22.3 Command Reference Guide
for feature-specific information about the Summit switches and for information regarding
switch configuration.
Combination Ports and Failover
Summit switches provide 2, 4, or 12 uplink ports implemented as combination ports that pair a copper
port using RJ45 connectors with an optical port using LC connectors.
The copper port operates as an autonegotiating 10/100/1000BASE-T port. The optical port allows
Gigabit Ethernet uplink connections through Extreme Networks small form factor pluggable (SFP)
interface modules. See the individual switch descriptions for the port numbers of the combination ports
on each switch model.
Summit Family Hardware Installation Guide12
Summit Switches
Summit switches support automatic failover from an active fiber port to a copper backup or from an
active copper port to a fiber port. If one of the uplink connections fails, the Summit uplink connection
automatically fails over to the second connection. To set up a redundant link on a combination port,
connect the active 1000BASE-T and fiber links to both the RJ45 and SFP interfaces of that port.
Gigabit Ethernet uplink redundancy on the Summit switches follows these rules:
With both the SFP and 1000BASE-T interfaces connected on a combination port, only one interface
•
can be activated. The other is inactive.
If only one interface is connected, the switch activates the connected interface.
•
The switch determines whether the port uses the fiber or copper connection based on the order in
•
which the connectors are inserted into the switch. When the switch senses that an SFP and a copper
connector are inserted, the switch enables the uplink redundancy feature. For example, if you first
connect copper ports x and y on a switch, and then insert SFPs into ports x and y, the switch
assigns the copper ports as active ports and the fiber ports as redundant ports.
Hardware identifies when a link is lost and responds by swapping the primary and redundant ports to
maintain stability. After a failover occurs, the switch keeps the current port assignment until another
failure occurs or a user changes the assignment using the CLI. For more information about configuring
automatic failover on combination ports, see the ExtremeXOS 22.3 User Guide.
Summit X150 Series Switches
The Summit X150 series switches provide 24 or 48 fixed 10/100BASE-T Ethernet ports that deliver highdensity copper connectivity at 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 sucient power to operate the switch.
The Summit X150e series switches include the following switch models:

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 or DC power input socket
and a redundant power connector. (See specific switch descriptions for more information about the
power options.) The switch automatically adjusts to the supply voltage. The redundant power
connector allows you to connect the switch to the EPS-160, EPS-500, or EPS-150DC 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 sucient power to operate the switch.

Summit X250e-48p Power Supplies
The Summit X250e-48p switch is powered by both an internal power supply and an optional external
redundant power supply system.
Internal Power Supply
The Summit X250e-48p internal power supply can provide 370 W of PoE power, as follows:
In a 24-port configuration, it provides 15.4 W to each port.
•
In a 48-port configuration or any combination of ports where total PoE power does not exceed 370
•
watts, it provides 7.7 W to each port.
Summit Family Hardware Installation Guide28
Summit Switches
If the total system demands exceed this power limit, you can specify one of the following:
Port priorities to identify which ports should be ranked higher when allocating power
•
Port disconnect precedence to specify the method of shutting o ports when not enough PoE
•
power is available
Note
For a detailed discussion of these concepts, see the Power over Ethernet section in the
ExtremeXOS 22.3 User Guide.
External Power Supplies
The EPS-600LS External Power Module provides optional redundant power for the Summit X250e-48p
switch.
Through the redundant power input connector on the rear panel, the switch can be powered by one,
two, or three external power modules installed in the EPS-C External Power Supply Chassis.
The PoE capability of the Summit X250e-48p varies depending on the number of external power
modules in use. The following table summarizes the PoE power behavior for the Summit X250e-48p
switch based on the number of power supply modules in use.
