Extreme Networks X460-G2-24t-10GE4-Base Switch - High-Performance Edge and Aggregation

1. Product Overview

The Extreme Networks X460-G2-24t-10GE4-Base is a high-performance, fixed-form switch designed for advanced edge access and aggregation deployments. It delivers non-blocking, wire-speed performance with 24x 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, 8x SFP combo ports, and 4x SFP+ ports for high-speed connectivity. Built on the resilient ExtremeXOS operating system, this switch offers robust Layer 2 and Layer 3 features, PoE+ support, and flexible stacking options.

2. Key Features

• 24x Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports + 4x 10GbE SFP+ uplinks
• Support for SummitStack, SummitStack-V, and SummitStack-V160 stacking
• IEEE 802.3at PoE+ and 802.3af PoE support
• Fabric Attach for automated network provisioning
• Role-based policy enforcement via ExtremeControl
• SyncE and IEEE 1588 PTP timing support
• Hot-swappable power supplies and fan trays
• Front-to-back or back-to-front airflow options

3. Technology

The X460-G2 series leverages ExtremeXOS, a resilient network operating system supporting advanced features such as:

• IPv4/IPv6 routing with ACLs and QoS
• Bidirectional bandwidth policing
• IEEE 1588 PTP and AVB for time-sensitive traffic
• VXLAN and MPLS support (with license)
• MACsec encryption (with adapter and license)

4. Working Principle

The switch operates at wire speed with a non-blocking architecture, processing traffic through hardware-based forwarding engines. It supports dynamic stacking of up to 8 units, enabling simplified management and redundant uplinks. Policy enforcement is applied per user or device role, ensuring secure access across wired and wireless networks.

5. Applications

• Campus and enterprise edge switching
• VoIP and wireless AP aggregation
• Video surveillance and IP camera networks
• Industrial IoT and time-sensitive networking
• Data center top-of-rack deployments

9. FAQ

Q: Does this switch support PoE?
A: This base model does not include PoE. For PoE support, consider the X460-G2-24p-10GE4 model.

Q: What is the maximum stacking bandwidth?
A: With SummitStack-V160, stacking bandwidth can reach 160 Gbps.

Q: Is the power supply included?
A: No, power supplies and fan trays must be ordered separately.

10. Precautions

• Ensure compatible airflow direction (front-to-back or back-to-front) for PSU and fan modules.
• Use only Extreme Networks-certified transceivers and cables.
• Verify firmware compatibility for features like PTP and MACsec.
• Follow EMC and safety standards as outlined in the hardware installation guide.
