Product Information
The Summit X670-G2 series switches are versatile, purpose-built top-of-rack and aggregation switches designed to support emerging Gigabit Ethernet enabled servers in enterprise and cloud data centers.
The Summit X670-G2 product family provides high density Gigabit Ethernet switching in a small 1RU form factor. With its versatile design, the Summit X670-G2 series provides high density layer networking with low latency cut-through switching, and unicast and multicast routing to enable enterprise aggregation and core backbone deployment in AC-powered and DC-powered environments.
The Summit X670-G2 series simplifies network operation with the ExtremeXOS modular operating system (OS), which is used among all extreme networks summit and BlackDiamond Ethernet switches. The high availability ExtremeXOS operating system provides simplicity and ease of operation through the use of one OS everywhere in the network.
- High-performance and highly scalable switching and routing
The Summit X670-G2 is enabling next-generation high-performance server deployment in data centers. The Summit X670-G2 series supports different methods of high-speed, longer distance stacking. - Intelligent switching and mpls/h-vpls support
Summit X670-G2 supports sophisticated and intelligent Layer 2 switching, as well as layer 3 routing including policy-based switching/routing, provider bridges, bidirectional ingress and egress access control lists, and bandwidth control by granularity both for ingress and egress. - Low latency switching for cluster computing
Summit X670-G2 can achieve latency of less than nanoseconds and supports cut-through switching for latency-sensitive cluster computing and high-frequency trading applications. - Precision Time Protocol (PTP)
The Summit X670-G2 series offers 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 X670-G2 series supports 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. - Green design
The Summit X670-G2 series is designed to be environmentally green. System power consumption is reduced at both high-load and idle situations through the power-efficient hardware design. The AC or DC power supplies are also highly efficient, which minimizes the loss of power and unnecessary heat generated by power supply.
