CentreCOM GS980MX Series

Stackable Multi-Gigabit Layer 3 Lite Switches

The GS980MX Series of stackable Layer 3 Lite switches feature high capacity, resiliency, and easy management. With Multi-Gigabit ports and Power over Ethernet, and available in both compact and high port density models, they provide an ideal choice for high-speed connectivity at the network edge.

Overview

  • Support high-speed Wi-Fi 6 solutions, and network upgrades over legacy cabling, with 2.5G and 5G connectivity (PoE models)
  • Connect and power endpoints such as IP phones, wireless APs, and more with up to 30 Watts of PoE+
  • Support high-power devices such as outdoor PTZ cameras with heaters/blowers and enhanced lighting controllers, with up to 90 Watts of PoE++ (10 and 18 port models)
  • Build a resilient network with the ability to stack multiple units using VCStack™
  • Extend network reach in distributed environments using long-distance stacking
  • Reduce costs and automate network management with Autonomous Management Framework™ Plus (AMF Plus)

Key Features

  • AlliedWare Plus™ Enterprise-class operating system
  • Multi-Gigabit ports with PoE+/PoE++ for flexible endpoint connectivity
  • Continuous PoE maximizes endpoint connectivity
  • Active Fiber Monitoring™ (AFM) for secure fiber networks
  • EPSRing™ for fast-failover resilient ring networks
