million packet per second forwarding rate in 1 Rack Unit (RU)
form factor
• 256 Gbps ultra high-speed stacking for up to eight units in a
stack to provide up to 192 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports in one
logically integrated unit
Versatile Architecture
• From high-performance server switching to enterprise
network aggregation and core deployment
• One network operating system for Extreme Networks
Ethernet switches everywhere in the network
• 10 Gigabit Ethernet over UTP cable and optical fiber with
SFP+ transceivers for single-mode and multimode fiber
installation

High Availability

• ExtremeXOS modular operating system for highly available
®
network operation
• Carrier-grade redundant networking protocol including
Ethernet Automatic Protection Switching (EAPS)
• Internal redundant AC/DC power supply and field replace-
able fan tray
Future-Proof
• 48-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet non-blocking switching with
512 Gbps SummitStack™512 technology
• Future support for 40 Gigabit Ethernet and 100 Gigabit
Ethernet through Versatile Interface Module (VIM) slot
Summit X650 Series
The Summit
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
ExtremeXOS operating system provides high
availability and simplicity with one operating system
everywhere in the network.
Target Applications
• Top of Rack switch for servers in enterprise
data centers
• High-performance 10 gigabit core switch for a
small network
• High-performance 10 gigabit aggregation
switch in a traditional three-tiered network
• Interconnect switch providing low latency
connections for High Performance Cluster
Computing (HPCC)
