Summit X450 Series Switches - Extreme Networks Summit X150 Series Hardware Installation Manual

Each Summit X450, X450a, or X450e series switch has four combination ports that provide
10/100/1000 BASE-T or SFP connectivity for 4 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 on the back panel can be used to connect the system to a parallel management
network for administration. Alternatively, you can use an Ethernet cable to connect the Ethernet
management port directly to a laptop to view and locally manage the switch configurations.
The rear panel of the switch has an option slot to accommodate one of the Summit port option cards
listed in the following table.

Option Card Model
XGM-2xn option card
XGM2-2xn option card
XGM2-2xf option card
XGM2-2sf option card
XGM2-2bt option card
Option card compatibility depends on the specific switch series. See the individual switch descriptions
for the option card supported on each switch. For option card installation instructions, see
Optional Ports.
Two high-speed stacking ports allow you to combine multiple units into a single SummitStack
management entity.
Power connectors include 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
an external power supply. When a compatible external power supply is used with the Summit X450,
X450a, or X450e series switch, the internal and external power supplies are fully fault tolerant. For
most switches, if one power supply fails, the other power supply will provide sufficient power to
operate the switch. For information about power supply redundancy with the Summit X450a-48p
switch, see Summit X450e-48p Power

The Summit X450 series switches are 24-port switches without PoE options.
The ports are implemented as fixed 10/100/1000BASE-t RJ-45 ports or as installable SFP modules.
These switches are available only with AC internal power supplies.
The Summit X450 series switches include the following models:
