AT-8000S/16

Layer 2 Managed Fast Ethernet Switch

AT-8000S/16

16 port standalone 10/100TX Layer 2 switch with 1 active SFP bay (unpopulated) and

1 standby 10/100/1000T port (RJ-45)

Overview

The small form factor AT-8000S/16 provides line-rate Layer 2 switching in an affordable, fixed-configuration platform. Featuring easy installation and exceptional reliability, this 10/100 switch comes with one Gigabit uplink port with the option of the integrated copper 10/100/1000 port or a 100 or 1000 SFP slot for fiber connectivity.

Ideal Workgroup and Remote Office Connectivity

Designed for the smaller workgroup or remote office this highly featured switch mirrors the advanced feature set of the larger 8000S series stackable products while offering the benefits of silent operation and a port density aimed at right priced functionality.

Easy Access Networking

Featuring an industry standard CLI and Allied Telesis’ intuitive yet fully featured Web interface the advanced features of the AT-8000S/16 are accessible to a wide range of system administrators. The well known CLI and Web interfaces significantly reduce learning time and minimize the cost of deployment.

Secure Management

Only authorized administrators can access the management interface of the 8000S series. Protocols such as SSL, SSH and SNMP v3 facilitate this protection of your network with local or remote connections.

Securing the Network Edge

To ensure the protection of your data, it is important to control access to your network. Protocols such as IEEE 802.1x port-based authentication guarantee that only known users are connected to the network. Unknown users who physically connect can be isolated to a pre-determined part of your network offering guests such benefits as Internet access while ensuring the integrity of your private network data.

Gigabit and Fast Ethernet SFP Support

All switches in the 8000S family support both Gigabit and Fast Ethernet Small Form-factor Pluggables (SFPs).This makes the 8000S series an ideal family for environments where Gigabit fiber switches will be phased in over time.The 8000S family allows for connectivity to the legacy 100FX hardware until it is upgraded to Gigabit. Support for both speeds of SFPs allows organizations to stay within budget as they migrate to faster technologies.
