Summit Family Switches Hardware Installation Guide

The Summit X650 series switches provide 24 front-panel Ethernet ports that deliver 10-Gigabit Ethernet 
connectivity using fixed 10GBASE-T RJ-45 ports or installable SFP+ optical modules. 

The Summit X650 series switches include the following base models:

●

●

The rear panel of the switch requires an installed option card called a versatile interface module or VIM. 
The available types of VIM are:

●

VIM1-SummitStack versatile interface module

●

VIM1-10G8X versatile interface module

●

VIM1-SummitStack512 versatile interface module

A serial console port on the front panel of the Summit X650 series switch 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 
Ethernet management port supports 10/100/1000 Mbps speeds. 

The rear panel of the switch has a replaceable versatile interface module (VIM) that provides one of the 
following port options:

●

Two 40-Gigabit stacking ports and four 1-gigabit SFP ports

●

Two 40-Gigabit stacking ports and eight 10-gigabit SFP+ ports

●

Four 128-Gbps stacking ports

Cooling is provided by a replaceable fan module. Two power supply bays accommodate either AC or 
DC power supplies. 

The front panel of the Summit X450-24t switch (

) includes:

●

Twenty-four fixed autosensing 1000/10000 BASE-T ports (ports 1-24) that provide high-density 
copper connectivity

●

10/100/1000 Mbps management port

●

Console port

●
