4.Insert the supplied screws into the rack mounting holes and tighten with a screwdriver.

5.Repeat the process for the rack-mounting bracket on the other side of the device.

6.Insert the device into the 19-inch rack and secure the unit to the rack with the rack screws (not provided by the ATI supplier). When securing, fasten the lower pair of screws before the upper pair of screws. This ensures that the weight of the unit is evenly distributed during installation. Ensure that the ventilation holes are not obstructed.

Connecting the Switch to a Terminal

AC Power Connection

Connecting the Switch to a Terminal

The device is connected to a terminal through a console port on the front panel of the 16 port device and the back panel for the 24/48 port devices. The console connection which enables a connection to a terminal desktop system running a terminal emulation software for monitoring and configuring the device.

The terminal must be a VT100 compatible terminal or a desktop or portable system with a serial port and running VT100 terminal emulation software.

AT-8000S specifications

The Allied Telesis AT-8000S series switches are a range of advanced Layer 2 Ethernet switches designed for efficient networking in various environments. Engineered with performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness in mind, these switches are ideal for businesses seeking to enhance their network infrastructure.

One of the main features of the AT-8000S series is its high-speed data forwarding capabilities. With support for 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports, these switches provide fast and reliable connections, enabling seamless data transfer and enhanced communication between devices. The non-blocking switching architecture ensures that full bandwidth is available at all times, maximizing throughput and reducing latency in network traffic.

The AT-8000S series incorporates advanced Layer 2 switching technologies, such as VLAN support, allowing users to segment network traffic for improved performance and security. Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) help isolate sensitive data and reduce unnecessary broadcast traffic, enhancing the overall performance of the network.

Quality of Service (QoS) is another significant feature integrated into these switches, prioritizing different classes of network traffic. This functionality ensures that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth and minimal latency, which is imperative for voice over IP, video conferencing, and other latency-sensitive applications.

In terms of network management, the AT-8000S series provides a variety of options, including an intuitive web-based interface, SNMP support, and the ability to manage switch configurations through console access. This flexibility allows network administrators to monitor performance and manage configurations easily.

The switches are built for durability, featuring a robust design suitable for deployment in various environments, including temperature-sensitive areas. Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability is also available in certain models, allowing network devices like IP cameras and wireless access points to receive power through the same cable as data, simplifying installation and reducing clutter.

Allied Telesis emphasizes security within the AT-8000S series, with features such as port security, DHCP snooping, and IEEE 802.1X authentication to safeguard against unauthorized access and potential threats.

Overall, the Allied Telesis AT-8000S series provides a comprehensive networking solution tailored for modern business needs, combining performance, flexibility, and security to support a growing array of applications and devices within the network.
