400
The Summit 400 implements state-of-the-art technology to address
critical requirements at the edge of the network. Requirements such
as the need for more density to support more users, but with the
performance to ensure users get the bandwidth they require; the
need to deploy services faster while lowering the cost of delivering
these services and the need to secure the network but remain open
to new opportunities. The Summit 400 delivers the industry’s best
investment protection by implementing advanced hardware and
software technology to meet and exceed these and other emerging
edge switch requirements.
Industry Leading 10/100/1000 Scalability
The Summit 400 delivers industry-leading 10/100/1000 density,
scalability, and port flexibility which allows customers to easily
expand their network and make the most efficient use of available
rack space. In just 1.75” (1 rack unit), the Summit 400 supports:
• 48 copper Gigabit Ethernet ports (10/100/1000BASE-T)
• 4 ports of SFP MiniGBICs (logically shared with the
1000BASE-T ports)
• 2 ports of 10 gigabit uplinks (optional)
• 10/100/1000 port for out-of-band management
• 1 serial port
10 Gigabit Ethernet at the Edge–When You Need It
The Summit 400 delivers the industry’s first fixed configuration edge
switch with multiple 10 gigabit uplinks so the edge switch uplink
capacity can grow as the end user’s bandwidth demands grow.
Based on a modular design, an optional 10 gigabit “daughter card’
can be added to the Summit 400 delivering immediate support for
two 10 gigabit XENPAK I/O modules. This advanced design enables
the user to easily upgrade the Summit 400 to multiple 10 gigabit
uplinks when added uplink capacity is required.
160 Gbps Switch Fabric
The Summit 400 delivers industry-leading switch fabric and
throughput performance giving users the bandwidth their
applications require. The Summit 400 switch fabric has a 160
Gbps capacity supporting 101 million packets per second, making
it the industry’s highest performance fixed configuration edge
switch. This industry-leading performance ensures that the
Summit 400 will have the capacity to support ever-growing end
user bandwidth requirements. The Summit 400’s two 10 gigabit
uplinks, its high performance switch fabric and 101 Mpps
throughput ensure that the Summit 400 will continue to be a
critical edge solution in the customer’s network for years to come.
Small, Medium, Large Networks Supported
The Summit 400 supports up to 16,000 MAC addresses, 4,000
Layer 3 forwarding database in hardware, or 64,000 routing table
entries making this an ideal switch for both wiring closet
implementations and enterprise branch offices. Even as the
customer’s network grows, the large table sizes supported in the
Summit 400 make this an excellent long-term solution more than
capable of supporting growth in the network.
Voice-Video-Data Convergence
Many customers are starting to reduce their overall networking
expenditures by converging their voice-video-data networks into a
single network, and the Summit 400 is an ideal solution for this
convergence. The Summit 400 supports up to 8 queues on every
port to classify and prioritize traffic to ensure that high priority
traffic, such as voice and video traffic, get the required bandwidth
when it is needed.
