NEW DELHI, INDIA: Extreme Networks, Inc. had started shipping Summit X650 10 gigabit fixed switch, designed for boosting performance and changing economics in data centres and high performance networks.
Jitendra Gupta, country manager, India & SAARC, Extreme Networks, said: "With the Summit X650, Extreme Networks is the only network vendor to provide a complete family of fixed switches--from 10/100 fixed switches to dense 10 gigabit fixed switches for top of the rack in the data centre-- that work on a single modular operating system and can be managed in any combination in a stack. With all these solutions now shipping, customers get the increased performance, advanced features and eased management that is required to boost performance and reduce operational costs."
The Summit X650 is designed with the same resilient and trusted ExtremeXOS operating system and SummitStack stacking technology uniquely available across Extreme Networks switch portfolio. Customers would be allowed a smooth and economic 1 gigabit to 10 gigabit migration for their infrastructure while managing all switches under a single stacking management technology, SummitStack.
The Summit X650 switch supports SFP+, the latest and small form factor transceiver technology enabling high density 10GbE network connectivity. Extreme Networks industry-leading SummitStack stacking technology initially deployed to mix Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet switches in the same virtual chassis is now leveraged to mix Gigabit Ethernet switches with the Summit X650 10G switches (up to 256 total ports), allowing for simple and cost-effective migration to 10 Gigabit technology in the data centre.
The key to Extreme Networks high performance data centre switch is that it provides performance and capacity for today and capability to extend for bandwidth in the future through Versatile Interface Modules (VIMs). Additionally, using the SFP+ interface technology, Extreme Networks supports both fiber and copper connectivity. SFP+ direct attach copper cables can connect up 10 meters, while the SFP+ SR and LR modules enable fiber connectivity for up to 300 meters and 10 kilometers, respectively.
