Summit X460-24x Switch
The front panel of the Summit X460-24x switch (Figure 87) includes:
● Twenty-four unpopulated SFP ports (ports 1–24) that provide 24 Gbps of fiber connectivity. The SFP
ports support both 100BASE-FX and 1000BASE-X optical modules.
For information about SFPs, see the Extreme Networks Pluggable Interface Modules Installation Guide.
● Eight fixed autosensing 10/100/1000BASE-T ports (ports 21–28) that provide 8 Gbps of high-density
copper connectivity
Ports 21 through 24 are implemented as shared ports that pair a copper port with a fiber port. For
more information about combination ports, see “Combination Ports and Failover” on page 22.
Ports 1 through 28 support Synchronous Ethernet. For information about this feature, see the
ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide.
● 10/100/1000 Mbps management port
● Serial console port used to connect a terminal and perform local management
● LEDs to indicate port status and switch operating conditions
For a description of the LEDs and their operation, see “Summit X460 Series Switch LEDs” on
page 115.
● Stack number indicator
