Chapter 1: Overview
Note
Features
This section describes the hardware features of the AT-x230-10GP and
AT-x230-18GP Gigabit Ethernet Switches.
Twisted pair
ports
Here are the basic features of the 10/100/1000Mbps twisted-pair ports:
8 or 16 PoE ports per switch
10BASE-T (IEEE 802.3i), 100BASE-TX (IEEE 802.3u) and
1000BASE-T (IEEE 802.3ab) compliant
IEEE 802.3u Auto-Negotiation compliant
Auto-MDI/MDIX
PoE Plus
Full wire-speed non-blocking
IEEE 802.3x Flow Control in 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX full-duplex
operation
IEEE 802.3x Back Pressure in 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX half-
duplex operation
IEEE803.3z 1000BASE-T Flow Control
Support for jumbo packets up to 10KB
One RJ45 connector on front panel for RS232 console purposes.
SFP slots Each switch has two SFP ports on the front panel. The ports are available
for 100Mbps or 1000Mbps of fiber, and 1000Mbps of copper, and support
100BASE-FX and 1000BASE-SX/LX transceivers. You need to purchase
SFP transceivers separately. For a list of supported transceivers, contact
your Allied Telesis distributor or reseller.
See the product data sheets for the specific ATI SFP modules
supported by the x230 Series Switches.

LEDs Here is a brief description of the port LEDs:
POWER and FAULT LEDs; refer to “POWER and FAULT LEDs”
on page 22.
Link/Activity/Speed/PoE LEDs for the twisted pair ports; see “10/
1000BASE-T/100BASE-TX Link/Activity/Speed LED and PoE
status LED” on page 24.
Link/Activity LEDs for the SFP slots; see “SFP LEDs” on page 27.
SD card LED: refer to “SD card LED” on page 28.
The ecofriendly button turns off the LEDs (excluding the POWER
LED) to conserve electricity. See “ecofriendly button” on page 30.

table
The AT-x230-10GP and AT-x230-18GP switches can be installed in the
following ways:
Rack mounted in a 19-inch equipment rack
Mounted on a desk or tabletop
Wall mounted
The AT-x230-10GP and AT-x230-18GP switches implement Eco-Switch
Green Power saving features and use less power than the METI
specification. The switches have the following power conservation
features:
ecofriendly button to turn off the port LEDs when the system is not
being monitored
High efficiency power supply
Power scaling based on traffic loads on ports operating at
1000Mbps (port power scaling not available at 10 or 100Mbps)
Power shutdown on unused ports
Here are the basic features of the MAC address table:
Storage capacity up to 16KB MAC address entries
Automatic learning and aging

Management software
The switches are shipped with the management software pre-installed.
The software provides a command line interface and a GUI (Graphical
User Interface) for in-band, over-the-network management. Refer to the:
In the unlikely event that the management software becomes corrupted or
damaged on the switch, you can download the software from the Allied
Telesis corporate web site and reinstall it on the switch. For instructions on
how to install new management software, see the product documentation.
