Allied Telesis 8100S Switch User Manual


 
The 8100S Series ber switches offers 100FX multimode ber
ports managed switches with high performance Layer 2-4
switching designed for the edge of network.
Secure
» The 8100S Series fiber switches are designed to
offer 100FX multi-mode connectivity for a higher
level of security not found in copper based Ethernet
systems. This combined with advanced access
security features protect the critical edge of the
network.
Able to go the distance
» Fiber connectivity is ideal for networks that demand
high bandwidth over long distances. The 8100S
Series fiber modules support Gigabit and 100Mbps
up to a distance of 2 kilometers over multi-mode
fiber, and up to 80 kilometers over single-mode fiber.
Fiber is able to transport data over long distances
without the type of degradation that you see with
copper, allowing high scalable and flexible network
design for big business campuses, educational
campus and large retails stores.
Stable in harsh environment
» Fibers complete immunity to electrical interference
makes it resistant to cross talk between signals
among different cables and environmental noise,
such as radio waves and electric signals. This makes
the 8100S Series ideal for high voltage environments
and in places with high EMI (Electromagnetic
Interference), such as alongside utility lines, conveyor
belts, power lines, and railroad tracks.
The 8100S Series consists of 16 100FX
(SC and LC) MMF ports and 24 100FX
(LC) MMF ports switch models. The
16-port models come with 16 100FX
plus 8 10/100TX ports. All 8100S Series
switches offer two Gigabit combo
10/100/1000T-SFP uplink ports plus
two dedicated stacking connectors
that deliver a total of 10Gbps stack
bandwidth. The stackable Ethernet
series offers ber connectivity suitable
for a network that requires high security
and long distance connectivity.
Redundant Power Options
All variants of the 8100S ber switch
family feature two internal power
supplies as standard, allowing the
switches to be powered from two
separate building feeds making the
8100S Series less susceptible to building
power failures and ensuring continuous
switch operation.
Stacking
The physical stacking capability
integrated into this platform is designed
to offer simplied management for
higher port density applications. Up to
three stackable switches of the 8100S
copper and ber series can be mixed
and stacked together to a maximum of
78 ports.
Key Features
Ease of Management
Designed for rapid deployment with
the minimum of conguration time, the
8100S Series offers features such as
Voice VLAN, LLDP-MED, Enhanced
Stacking and Web management GUI
that facilitates simple and effective
approach to network management.
Voice VLAN segregates VoIP trafc
from regular Ethernet trafc and
applies to it a higher QoS. It takes the
complexity out of VoIP deployments,
ensures high voice quality and protects
time sensitive voice trafc from being
ooded by other data. LLDP-MED lets
the user auto-congure end stations to
send preconditioned trafc that adheres
to Voice VLAN congured network
policies.
Enhanced Stacking with 8100S Series
enables the user to make software
upgrades for multiple switches with
a single command, plus update all
congurations in a single management
session.
The industry standard CLI of AlliedWare
Plus™ combined with the simple and
intuitive Web management GUI reduces
the training needs for those who require
granularity of control, by providing a
familiar interface for advanced users.
