Introduction

These dual-speed hubs include a wide range of configuration options. They can be stacked together (up to 6 high) to form a dual-speed network of up to 72/144 ports. With a Class II rating, they can also be easily cascaded to additional 10 or 100 Mbps hubs. When the switch module is installed, it links the hub's internal 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps repeater buses together to form a segmented network, allowing traffic to pass between the segments when required.

Moreover, the optional Agent Module provides the broadest range of management options possible. It provides support for SNMP and the following RMON groups: statistic, history, alarm and event. Web management, and remote access via an in- band, Telnet or SLIP connection.

These hubs consist of 12/24 RJ-45 dual-speed (10/100 Mbps) ports, and two slots on the front panel for optional slide-in modules, including switch modules for internal segment interconnection or external media expansion (using cable or fiber optics), and an Agent Module.

It supports a variety of media types and has 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, which allow for seamless integration with existing network infrastructures. The device employs a non-blocking architecture, ensuring that data packets are routed efficiently without bottlenecks. Each port can automatically negotiate speeds between 10/100 Mbps, making it versatile for various devices. The switch also provides advanced features such as VLAN support, enabling network segmentation for improved performance and enhanced security.

Similarly, the AT-FH824U-SW variant adds an important layer to network management with its smart features. This managed switch version allows network administrators to monitor and control traffic flow through simple GUI interfaces or command-line SNMP management. The integration of Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities ensures that critical applications receive priority bandwidth, enhancing overall network efficiency.

On the other hand, the AT-FH812U is a more compact model with 12 Fast Ethernet ports. Ideal for smaller office environments, it delivers reliable networking with the same level of performance as its larger counterparts. It also supports IEEE 802.1Q for VLAN tagging, providing improved network functionality and security. This switch can be mounted in a standard rack or placed on a desktop, adding to its versatility.

The AT-FH812U-SW incorporates managed functionality, allowing users to access advanced settings and configurations. With features such as loop prevention, broadcast storm control, and port mirroring, it offers the robustness needed for more complex networking scenarios.

Allied Telesis switches are built with energy-efficient technology, minimizing power consumption without compromising performance. Enhanced security protocols including port security and access control lists make these switches suitable for businesses focused on safeguarding their networks against unauthorized access.

Overall, the AT-FH824U, AT-FH824U-SW, AT-FH812U, and AT-FH812U-SW models offer a blend of technology and performance, catering to the diverse needs of modern network infrastructures. These switches deliver scalability, manageability, and security, making them an ideal choice for various networking applications.
