● Management port
■ Used to connect the system into a parallel management network for administration.
OR
■ Used to connect an Ethernet cable directly from your laptop into the management port to view
and locally manage the switch configurations.
● Two LEDs for the management port, located in the bottom corners of the port.
● Two high-performance stacking ports
● Redundant power input connector for an optional, redundant Extreme External Power Supply (see
“EPS-150DC External Power Module (with EPS-T2)” on page 321 for complete details). The
connecting redundant power supply cable is shipped with the EPS-150DC.
● DC power socket
The switch automatically adjusts to the supply voltage. The power supply operates from
-36 V to -72 V DC.
Summit X450a-48t Switch
The Summit X450a-48t switch includes the following:
● 44 fixed 10/100/1000 BASE-T ports that deliver high-density copper connectivity for 44 Gbps in
1.75-inch (1U) form factor (ports 1-44)
● Four combination ports that provide 10/100/1000 BASE-T or mini-GBIC connectivity for 4 Gbps of
copper or fiber connectivity (ports 45-48)
For information about mini-GBICs, see “Mini-GBIC Interfaces” on page 338.
● Two high-performance stacking ports
● Optional:
■ Summit XGM2-2xn option card, which allows you to add up to two 10 Gigabit XENPAK modules
■ Summit XGM2-2xf option card, which allows you to add up to two 10 Gigabit XFP modules
For information regarding these compatible Summit option cards, see “Summit XGM2-2xn Option Card” on
page 297 or “Summit XGM2-2xf Option Card” on page 302.
● Optional: EPS-500 External Power Supply Unit (Model No. 10911), which is the redundant power
supply for use with the Summit X450a-48t switch. When this switch is used with the EPS-500, the
power supplies (internal and redundant) are fully fault tolerant and load-sharing. If one power
supply fails, the other power supply will provide sufficient power to operate the switch.
