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 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 a new virtualized
environment.

Summit X650 provides remarkable high-density for
10 Gigabit Ethernet in a very small 1RU form
factor for up to 32 ports in one system and 192 ports
in a stacked system. Summit X650 offers two of the
most 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.

The versatile Summit X650 switch provides
exceptional high-density Layer 2/3 switching. With
ultra low latency and highly scalable IPv4 and IPv6
unicast and multicast routing, enterprise aggregation
and core backbone deployment can be enabled in
AC-powered and DC-powered environments.

Summit X650 simplifies network operation with
an ExtremeXOS modular operating system amongst
all Extreme Networks

®

Ethernet switches. The

ExtremeXOS operating system provides high
availability and simplicity with one operating system
everywhere in the network.
