Product description
The Summit X460-G2 can also be used as a top-of-rack switch for many data center environments with features such as high-density Gigabit Ethernet for concentrated data center environments; XNV (ExtremeXOS Network Virtualization) for centralized network-based Virtual Machine (VM) inventory, VM location history, and VM provisioning; direct attach to offload VM switching from servers, thereby improving performance; high-capacity layer 2/layer 3 scalability for highly virtualized data centers, and intra-rack and cross-rack stacking with industry-leading flexibility.
Product features
- High-performance and highly scalable switching and routing
Summit X460-G2 offers core-class intelligent switching and routing with exceptional port density and high-performance stacking technology powered by the ExtremeXOS modular operating system. - High density, small form factor
Extreme Networks Summit X460-G2 provides high density for Gigabit Ethernet in a very small 1 RU form factor for up to 52 ports in one system. For emerging demands from data, storage, voice, and data convergence, Summit X460-G2 provides highly scalable layer 2/3 switching and Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS)/Hierarchical Virtual Private LAN Service (H-VPLS). Summit X460 switches also support provider bridges. - High availability and simplicity
Summit X460-G2 enables enterprise campus, data center, and carrier Ethernet edge, aggregation and core backbone deployment in AC-powered and DC-powered environments. Summit X460-G2 simplifies network operation with ExtremeXOS modular OS, available across Extreme Networks Ethernet switches. The ExtremeXOS operating system provides high availability and simplicity with one OS everywhere in the network. - 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP)
The Summit X460-G2 series offers optional Boundary Clock (BC), Transparent Clock (TC), and Ordinary Clock (OC) for synchronizing phase and frequency and allowing the network and the connected devices to be synchronized down to microseconds of accuracy over Ethernet connection. - Audio Video Bridging (AVB)
The Summit X460-G2 series supports IEEE 802.1 Audio Video Bridging to enable reliable, real-time audio/video transmission over Ethernet. AVB technology delivers the quality of service required for today's high-definition and time-sensitive multimedia streams.
