Gigabit ethernet switch: AT-x600

Allied Telesis is selling a line of switches denominated as the AT-x600 series. Those switches offer several advantages and are perfect as aggregation switches or as an access controller for any network. This family of products with stackable Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet switches has both 24 and 48 Gigabit port versions with optional 10GbE uplinks.

The wide variety of security functionalities and the easy integration with several NAC solutions, including Microsoft NAP and Symantec SNAC, make these products a good choice for systems where intelligence and security at the network periphery are crucial factors. Besides, all the x600 switches can be stacked by using uplink ports that were specifically designed to enable a 4-unit stack to have a massive 160 Gigabits of uplink bandwidth with no reduction in stacking backplane throughput. This way, this range of products provides a great flexibility and reliability. The Allied Telesis AT-x600 switches family is available in four versions: Two versions comes with 24 ports (the AT-x600-24Ts and the AT-x600-24Ts/XP, although there is an additional PoE version too), and other two versions with 48 ports (the AT-x600-48Ts and the AT-x600-48Ts/XP).
