x950 Series

10G/40G/100G Stackable Layer 3 Managed Switches

Ideal for high-performing modern enterprise network cores, with stacking to create a resilient local or distributed solution, and integrated management of wired and wireless network devices. These powerful switches have 100 Gigabit connectivity built-in, and are expandable, delivering the capacity to enable today’s Smart City and IoT networks.

Overview

  • Build a resilient network core or distribution solution with the ability to stack multiple units using VCStack™
  • Create resilient, distributed backbones that are easy to manage with long-distance stacking
  • Enable multiple converged services in Smart City and IoT networks, with the same high capacity as the SwitchBlade x908 Gen2 in a 1RU form-factor
  • Support high-speed wireless, and network upgrades over legacy cabling, with 2.5G and 5G connectivity
  • Reduce costs and automate network and device management with Autonomous Management Framework™ Plus (AMF Plus)
  • Manage up to 250 access points with the Autonomous Wave Control (AWC) Lite wireless controller, which automatically optimizes wireless connectivity and throughput
  • View the network graphically and simplify wireless deployment with floor and heat maps using the Device GUI

Key Features

  • AlliedWare Plus™ Enterprise-class operating system
  • EPSRing™ and G.8032 ERPS for fast-failover resilient ring networks
  • Active Fiber Monitoring™ (AFM) for secure fiber backbone connections
  • Media Access Control Security (MACSec) for secure point-to-point Ethernet links
  • Market-leading SDN with industry certified OpenFlow v1.3
  • 28-port models have 24 x 10G copper or fiber ports, 4 x 40G/100G uplinks, and 1 expansion bay for Multi-Gigabit, 10G, 40G, or 100G modules
  • 52-port models have 48 x 10G copper or fiber ports, and 4 x 40G/100G uplinks
  • Large switching and routing tables support multiple services and connected devices
  • 1.92 Terabit switch fabric and 1,190Mpps throughput for seamless data transfer capability
  • Dual hot-swappable load-sharing PSUs (AC and/or DC)
  • FIPS 140-2 certified
