Competitive Advantages
This model stands out from other switches in its class through
several key differentiators. Its software-based 10GbE upgrade path
protects investments by eliminating the need for a hardware swap.
The support for long-distance stacking (up to 40km) with
SummitStack-V provides exceptional deployment flexibility for
distributed campuses. Furthermore, integration with the broader
Extreme ecosystem, including ExtremeCloud™ and ExtremeManagement
Center, offers a single-pane-of-glass management experience that
many competitors cannot match, reducing operational complexity.
Service, Support, and Warranty
This switch is backed by Extreme Networks' limited lifetime
warranty. Our company complements this with value-added services
including competitive bulk pricing, rapid logistics to ensure
timely delivery, and expert pre-sales technical consultation. Our
team provides ongoing support to assist with integration and

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I upgrade the SFP+ ports to 10GbE?
A: A software license (e.g., Part #16541 for a quad upgrade) is
required to activate 10GbE functionality on the four SFP+ ports.
Q: Can this switch stack with older Extreme models?
A: SummitStack-V allows it to stack with other X440-G2, X450-G2,
X460-G2, X670-G2, and X770 switches, provided they all run the same
version of ExtremeXOS.
Q: What is the maximum power provided per PoE port?
A: It supports the IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) standard, delivering up to
30W per port.
Q: Is redundant power an option?
A: Yes, an external Redundant Power Supply (RPS) like the RPS-500p
or EPS-C2 can be added for power redundancy.
Q: Does it support audio and video streaming applications?
A: Yes, it supports IEEE 802.1 Audio Video Bridging (AVB) for
prioritized, low-latency media traffic.
Critical Precautions
- Ensure adequate cooling and do not exceed the specified operating
temperature range.
- When using 10GBASE-T SFP+ transceivers, populate every other port
and leave adjacent ports unused for proper thermal management.
- Verify the total power draw of all connected PoE devices does not
exceed the total 380W budget.
- Extended temperature models (0°C to 60°C) do not support 10GbE
upgrades or stacking.
- Always use certified and compatible optical transceivers and cables
for guaranteed performance.
