Versatile Interface Modules for the Summit X480
Series Switches
A VIM2 or VIM3 versatile interface module can be installed in a dedicated slot at the back of the
Summit X480 series switch to provide high speed stacking ports or 10-Gbps Ethernet ports. Summit
X480 series switches support the following modules:
● VIM2-10G4X module (this page)
● VIM2-SummitStack module (page 167)
● VIM2-SummitStack128 module (page 167)
● VIM2-SummitStack-V80 module (page 167)
● VIM3-40G4X module (page 168)
VIM2-10G4X Versatile Interface Module
The VIM2-10G4X versatile interface module (Figure 125) provides four 10-Gbps ports using XFP optical
modules. For information about the supported optical modules, refer to the most recent version of the
ExtremeXOS Hardware and Software Compatibility Matrix
Figure 125: VIM2-10G4X Versatile Interface Module
The XFP ports are labeled S1, S2, S3, and S4. ExtremeXOS software assigns port numbers to the XFP
ports based on the switch model in which the VIM2-10G4X module is installed (see Table 56).
Ports S3 and S4 can be used as alternate stacking ports in a SummitStack configuration that uses the
SummitStack-V feature. For more information about stacking Summit family switches, see Chapter 5.
