Flexible Deployment Options

The X695 can handle a range of high bandwidth applications, including

high-density 10Gb/25Gb top of rack aggregation, as well as spine/leaf

deployments as an edge leaf switch. It can also flexibly support uplinks at

25Gb, 40Gb, 50Gb, or even 100Gb rates. A range of SFP+ and QSFP+ optical

transceivers are available to support 1Gb, 10Gb, and 40Gb Ethernet, while

SFP28 and QSFP28 optical transceivers can be used to support 25Gb, 50Gb,

and 100Gb Ethernet applications.

Intelligent L2/L3 Switching

The X695 supports intelligent Layer 2 switching, as well as Layer 3 IPv4/

IPv6 routing, including policy-based switching and routing. The X695 can

simplify network operation with its ExtremeXOS modular operating system,

used across a wide range of Extreme's networking products. The high

availability ExtremeXOS operating system reduces operational overhead

with a single OS across the network.

Integrated Application Hosting

Extreme’s Integrated Application Hosting leverages the X695 operating

software and hardware to provide on-switch processing without impacting

switching or network performance. This flexible and open solution enables

organizations to deploy Extreme-provided and/ or third-party applications

and tools directly on the X695 system for monitoring, troubleshooting, or

extended network functionality, based on customer need.

Benefits of the Integrated Application Hosting on the X695 include:

• Flexible deployment of VM-based applications within the network

using the hardware resources of the X695

• Ability of VM-based applications to extract data without disrupting

forwarding or control plane traffic

• Availability of dedicated memory and SSD storage for flexible packet

capture and off-line processing

High-Performance Stacking

The X695 supports either SummitStack-V400 or SummitStack-V160 high

speed stacking via its 2 QSFP28 ports. Up to eight (8) X590, X690,

X695 or X870 systems can be stacked when using SummitStack-V400.

Alternatively, the X695 can cross-stack with X465 systems by using

SummitStack-V160. Any of the supported QSFP28 direct attach cables and

optical transceivers can be used for the stacking links.

Audio Video Bridging

The X695 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.

Management

The X695 can be centrally managed by ExtremeCloud IQ –Site Engine,

which provides a consolidated view of users, devices, and applications

for wired and wireless networks. Zero-touch provisioning lets one quickly

bring new infrastructure online. A granular view of users, devices, and

applications with an easy to understand dashboard enables efficient

inventory and network topology management.

Network Intelligence

The X695 Series can provide insight and intelligence into the network

via line-rate, hardware-accelerated sFlow support. With this capability, the

X695 can deliver actionable insights into both network and application

performance without the need for expensive sensors or collectors.
