Compatible Switches

Caution Attempting to install a module into a switch which is not compatible may

damage the switch and the module. Compatible expansion modules are listed in
your switch’s Hardware Reference. If you are unsure of a module's compatibility,
contact an authorised Allied Telesis distributor or reseller.

The AT-A65 is compatible with the following Allied Telesis switches:

■ AT-8624T/2M

■ AT-8624PoE

To be compatible with the AT-A65, the switch must run software version 2.9.1-17 or
higher of the AlliedWare

TM

operating system.

Compatible Data Cables and SFPs

The AT-A65 expansion module can act as either a:

■ 1000Base-X SFP expansion bay or

■ 10/100/1000Base-T copper port with RJ-45 connection

The module can automatically switch between the copper and fiber interface. When
an SFP is installed in the AT-A65, the SFP port is considered the active port and the
copper port becomes disabled. When there is no SFP installed then the copper port
becomes the active port.

SFP expansion bay qualities

The following SFP types are supported:

■ 1000Base-SX fiber

■ 1000Base-LX fiber

■ 1000Base-ZX fiber

10/100/1000Base-T copper and 100Base-FX SFPs are not supported.
