Overview of the Summit Switches
Summit Family Switches Hardware Installation Guide
19
Model numbers for the Summit switches are in the following format:
<Series>-<number of front-panel I/O ports><port type><internal power supply type>
● The number of ports can be 8, 24, 32, or 48.
● The port type can be t (copper), p (copper providing Power of Ethernet), q (QSFP+) or x (fiber).
● For models with integral power supplies, the power supply type can be AC (no designation) or DC.
Models with pluggable power supplies can accommodate either AC or DC supplies and have no
power designation in their model numbers.
For example, the Summit X350-24t switch is in the X350 series, provides 24 copper I/O ports, and has
an AC power supply. The Summit X450a-24xDC switch is in the X450a series, provides 24 fiber I/O
ports, and has a DC power supply.
Table 6 on page 20 lists the available switch models in each series.
