DATA SHEET HIGHLIGHTS The Summit X670 series switches are purpose-built top-of-rack switches designed to support emerging 10 Gigabit Ethernet-enabled servers in enterprise and cloud data centers. Summit X670 helps optimize new server deployments with its optional, future-proofing 40 GbE uplink support while providing seamless support from existing Gigabit Ethernet-based servers to 10 GbEbased high-performance servers to start the transition to the new virtualized environment. Product Overview The Summit X670 series is available in two models: Summit X670V and Summit X670. Summit X670V provides high density for 10 Gigabit Ethernet switching in a small 1RU form factor. The switch supports up to 64 ports in one system and 448 ports in a stacked system using high-speed SummitStack-V160, which provides 160 Gbps throughput and distributed forwarding. The Summit X670 model provides up to 48 ports in one system and up to 352 ports in a stacked system using SummitStack-V technology. With its versatile design, the Summit X670 series 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 X670 series simplifies network operation with the ExtremeXOS modular operating system (OS), which is used amongst all Extreme Networks Summit and BlackDiamond Ethernet switches. The high availability ExtremeXOS operating system provides simplicity and ease of operation through the use of one OS everywhere in the network. 10 GIGABIT ETHERNET SWITCHING The Summit X670 model offers 48-port 10 Gigabit Ethernet non-blocking switching with 10GBASE-X SFP+ interfaces. Summit X670 is capable of Layer 2 and Layer 3 forwarding at up to 714 million packets per second forwarding rate in a small 1RU form factor, enabling next-generation high-performance server deployment in data centers. Both models support SummitStack-V high-speed, longer distance stacking. SummitStack-V: Flexible Stacking Over 10 Gigabit Ethernet SummitStack-V capability utilizes 10 GbE ports as stacking ports, enabling the use of standard cabling and optics technologies used for 10 GbE such as XFP, SFP+, 10GBASE-T and XENPAK. SummitStack-V provides long-distance stacking connectivity of up to 40 km while reducing the cable complexity of implementing a stacking solution. SummitStack-V enabled 10 GbE ports must be physically direct-connected. Summit X670 Series® – Data Sheet

40 GIGABIT ETHERNET UPLINKS AND HIGH-SPEED 160 GBPS STACKING The Summit X670V model can support an additional four QSFP+ ports of 40 GbE with the optional VIM4-40G4X module. With this option, you can maximize the number of interfaces for servers up to 48 ports while using the dedicated four-port 40 GbE module for uplink connectivity. The optional VIM4-40G4X provides 160 Gbps aggregated bandwidth to the backbone. Each Summit X670 switches also support Priority-based Flow Control (PFC, or IEEE 802.1Qbb), which allows network traffic to be controlled independently based on Class of Service....

Robust IP / MAC Security Framework MEDIA ACCESS CONTROL (MAC) LOCKDOWN IP/port bindings providing the traffic’s source from a specific address for immediate defense. IDENTITY MANAGEMENT MAC security allows the lockdown of a port to a given MAC address and limiting the number of MAC addresses on a port. This capability can be used to dedicate ports to specific hosts or devices such as VoIP phones or printers and avoid abuse of the port—a capability that can be especially useful in environments such as hotels. In addition, an aging timer can be configured for the MAC lockdown, protecting the...
