Overview
This chapter contains the following sections:
“AT-8000GS Switch Series Features” on page 10
“IEEE Standards” on page 11
“Model Descriptions” on page 12
“Port Descriptions” on page 15
“LED Definitions” on page 16
The AT-8000GS Gigabit Ethernet Switch series includes three device
models, which consist of the following hardware configurations:
AT-8000GS/24 Gigabit Ethernet Switch with 24 10/100/1000 Base-T
ports with 4 1000Base-X SFP combo ports and 2 HDMI interface
stacking ports.
AT-8000GS/24POE Gigabit Ethernet Switch with 24 10/100/1000
Base-T ports with modular configuration 4 x 1000Base-X SFP Combo
ports and 2 HDMI interface stacking ports and support for 802.3af
Power over Ethernet on the RJ-45 ports. The total POE power
available is 140W which allows for a maximum of nine class 3 devices
(15.4W per device) or a dynamic distribution of power across any or all
24 ports based on user-assigned priorities.
AT-8000GS/24POE Gigabit Ethernet Switch with 48 10/100/1000
Base-T ports with modular configuration 4 x combo 1000Base-X SFP
Combo ports and 2 HDMI interface stacking ports.
All the platforms can operate as standalone systems, or can be stacked
together in the same system. A stack of six units maximum is supported.
In each stack, at any given point of time, there is a single Stack unit that is
the stack’s “Master”; all other units are “Slaves”. One of the slaves can act
as a backup master, so that in the event of failure of the master unit, the
backup takes over. The Stack architecture provides for dynamic learning
of the topology, and dynamic detection at stack start-up.
Device configuration is performed through an Embedded Web Server
(EWS) or through a Command Line interface (CLI). The device
management is performed through an RS-232 interface.

The RJ-45 port on the rear panel is an asynchronous serial console port
supporting the RS-232 electrical specification. The port is used to connect
the device to a console managing the device. This interface configuration
is as follows:
Eight data bits.
One stop bit.
No parity.
Baud rate is 115,200 (default). The user can change the rate from
115,200 down to 2400 bps.

LED Definitions
The switch has Light Emitting Diodes (LED) on both the front and rear
panels that indicate the both the port status and the switch status. The
different LED types are as follows:
“System LEDS” on page 16 — These LEDs indicate the switch power
supply and diagnostic result status and are found on the front panel.
“Stacking Port LEDs” on page 17 — These LEDs indicates the switch
location in a stack and are found on the front panel.
“Mode LEDs” on page 18 — These LEDs indicates the functional
information that the RJ-45 port LED displays. These LEDs are only
found on front panels of the AT-8000GS/24 Gigabit Ethernet Switch
and AT-8000GS/48 Gigabit Ethernet Switch.
Port LEDs — These LEDs indicate each port’s status. There are
different types of port LEDs which are described in the following
sections:
– “RJ-45 Port LEDs on AT-8000GS/24 & AT-8000GS/
48” on page 19.
– “RJ-45 Port LEDs AT-8000GS/24POE” on page 21
– “SFP Port LEDs” on page 23
– “Stacking Port LEDs” on page 24
