Allied Telesis Next Generation Intelligent Layer 3+ Chassis Switch

Next generation intelligent Layer 3+ chassis switches

Allied Telesis SwitchBlade x8100 Series Layer 3+ chassis switches, with CFC960 control cards, guarantee high performance for the large enterprise network core. Available in 6 and 12 slot models, with the ability to stack two chassis into a single virtual unit, the CFC960 based system combines resilience and scalability in a superior solution.

High performing
The SwitchBlade x8100 Series offers an extensive range of 40, 10 and 1 Gigabit connectivity options. The CFC960 control card provides powerful processing ability ideal for the large network core, and incorporates four 10GbE ports. Dual active/ active CFC960 control cards provide chassis resilience, and up to 160Gbps throughput to each line card slot for maximum performance and wirespeed data delivery.

Powerful network management

The Allied Telesis Autonomous Management Framework (AMF) meets the increased management requirements of modern converged networks, automating many everyday tasks including configuration management. AMF has powerful centralized management features that manage a complete network as a single virtual device. The network can be expanded with plug-and-play simplicity, and network node recovery is fully zero-touch.
AMF secure mode increases network security with management traffic encryption, authorization, and monitoring. AMF Guestnode allows third party devices, such as IP phones and security cameras, to be part of an AMF network.

Total reliability

For resiliency against network failures, two chassis can be stacked together into a single virtual unit using VCStack Plus™. This creates a powerful and completely resilient network core, which can even be distributed over long distance.

The SwitchBlade x8100 Series switches operate with a single AC or DC PSU. Installing a second load-sharing PSU provides complete power redundancy.

To minimize downtime when maintaining or upgrading the system, In-Service Software Upgrade can be used to upgrade software without interrupting network traffic, and control cards, line cards, power supplies and the fan tray are all hot-swappable.

Scalable

Both the 6- and 12-slot chassis options provide a powerful network solution. VCStack Plus uses the 10 Gigabit ports on the CFC960 control cards to allow two chassis to combine as a single virtual unit.

The modular SBx81XLEM line card is extremely flexible, supporting 40, 10 and 1 Gigabit Ethernet options. It also offers increased L2 and L3 table sizes for large core applications.

The 16-port 10 Gigabit (SFP+) line card provides high-speed downlink connectivity.

There are three 24-port Gigabit line cards available: copper, PoE+, and fiber (SFP). The 40- port Gigabit copper line card maximizes port density, providing up to 400 Gigabit copper ports in a single 7RU SwitchBlade x8112 chassis, or 200 Gigabit copper ports in a single 4RU SwitchBlade x8106 chassis.

Environmentally friendly


SwitchBlade x8100 Series switches are designed to reduce power consumption and minimize hazardous waste. Features include high efficiency power supplies and low power chip sets. An ECOSwitch button allows additional power conservation, by turning off all diagnostic LED indicators when they are not required.
  • Can work as layer 3 routing for scalable network design
  • Built-in power supply to ensure all components are being supplied with accurate voltage
  • Rack mounting enables you to organize wires & secure cables for professional installation
