AT-8000S/48

Layer 2 Stackable Fast Ethernet Switch

AT-8000S/48

48-port stackable 10/100TX L2 switch with 2 active SFP bays (unpopulated) and 2 standby 10/100/1000T ports (RJ-45)

Overview

One of a series of stackable switches from Allied Telesis, the AT-8000S/48 provides high performance Layer 2 switching in an affordable fixed configuration platform.This switch offers 48 10/100 ports, two fixed 1Gbps SFP slots plus two integrated stacking connectors that deliver a total of 4Gbps stacking bandwidth.The stacking capability integrated into this platform is configured as a resilient ring topology designed to provide high reliability and simpli- fied management for higher port density applications.

Ideal Branch Office and Wiring Closet Connectivity

Powerful line rate performance and stackability make this switch ideal for branch offices or the wiring closet of larger offices. The state-of-the- art QoS capability of this product ensures reli- able delivery of advanced network services such as voice while effectively controlling the continually increasing traffic needs found in today’s networks.

Easy Access Networking

Featuring an industry standard CLI and Allied Telesis’ intuitive yet fully featured WEB interface the advanced features of the 8000S/48 are accessible to a wide range of system adminis- trators. The well known CLI and WEB inter- faces significantly reduce learning time and minimize the cost of deployment.

Secure Management

Only authorized administrators can access the management interface of the AT-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 802.1x port based authenti- cation 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.
