CentreCOM XS900MX Series

Layer 3 10G Stackable Managed Switches

The XS916MXT and XS916MXS switches offer cost effective,

high-speed 10G connectivity for servers and storage, and support

100/1000 connections for existing networks. The XS900MX Series

enable a highly flexible and reliable network, which can easily scale
to meet increasing traffic demands.

Overview

The XS900MX Series are the ideal
10G access switches for enterprise
networks or anywhere a relay switch
with 10G uplink is required. The
switches also make the ideal core or
aggregation switch, to connect servers
and storage in a small network.

The XS916MXT features 12 x
100/1000/10GBASE-T and 4 x SFP+
slots. The AT-XS916MXS features 4 x
100/1000/10GBASE-T and 12 x SFP+
slots.

Easy management

The XS900MX Series switches
feature Allied Telesis Autonomous
Management Framework
sophisticated suite of management
tools that provides a simplified
approach to network management.

Common tasks are automated or made
so simple that the everyday running of
a network can be achieved without the
need for highly trained, and expensive,
network engineers. Powerful features
like centralized management,
auto-backup, auto-upgrade, auto­provisioning and auto-recovery enable
plug-and-play networking and zero­touch management.

switches to form a protected ring
capable of recovery within as little as
50ms. This feature is perfect for high
performance and high availability in

Stackable

Flexi-stacking allows a user to stack
two XS900MX Series switches, with
the choice of using 10G SFP+ or
RJ45 copper connectivity. VCStack
provides a highly available system
where network resources are spread
out across stacked units, reducing the
impact if one of the units fails. With
VCStack and the XS900MX Series, up
to 28 x 10G ports can be provisioned
as a single virtual switch in one rack
unit.

Enhanced security

A secure network environment is
guaranteed, with powerful control
over network traffic types, secure
management options, and other multi­layered security features built right into
the XS900MX Series switches:
