Summit® X650 Series—The ultimate top-of-rack 10 Gigabit
Ethernet switch.
The Summit X650 series switch is a purpose-built
top-of-rack switch designed for emerging 10 Gigabit
Ethernet-enabled servers deployed in enterprise data
centers. Summit X650 helps optimize new server
deployments while providing a seamless migration path
from existing Gigabit Ethernet-based servers to 10 Gigabit
Ethernet-based high-performance servers to start the
transition to the new virtualized environment.
Summit X650 provides high density for 10 Gigabit Ethernet
in a small 1RU form factor for up to 32 ports in one system
and 192 ports in a stacked system. Summit X650 offers two
advanced 10 Gigabit Ethernet technologies: 10GBASE-T and
SFP+ to accommodate the needs for both copper twisted
pair cable and optical fiber-based 10 Gigabit Ethernet.
With its versatile design, Summit X650 provides high
density Layer 2/3 switching with low latency cut-through
switching and IPv4 and IPv6 unicast and multicast routing
to enable enterprise aggregation and core backbone
deployment in AC-powered and DC-powered environments.
Summit X650 simplifies network operation with the
ExtremeXOS modular OS, used amongst Extreme Networks
Ethernet switches. The ExtremeXOS operating system
provides high availability and simplicity with one OS
everywhere in the network.
Target Applications
• Top-of-rack switch for servers in enterprise
data centers
• High-performance 10 GbE core switch for a
small network
• High-performance 10 GbE aggregation switch in a
traditional three-tiered network
• An ideal choice for 10 GbE Carrier Ethernet access and
PON OLT aggregation
• Interconnect switch providing low latency connections
for High Performance Cluster Computing (HPCC)
