1. Introduction
Overview of AS Series Layer 3 Lite Managed PoE+ Switches
AS series switch models offer flexible port configurations, with combinations of 1000Base-T
10/100/1000mbps RJ-45, paired 1000Base-T/SFP arrays (with the SFP slot supporting 100Mbps or
1Gbps SFP modules), unpaired SFP slots (also supporting 100Mbps or 1Gbps SFP modules), and SFP+
slots for 100Mb, 1Gbps or 10Gbps SFP modules. Port densities range from 10 to 52 ports.
All SFP Ports support both 100M and 1000M SFP modules allowing easy upgrade paths for existing
cabling and network infrastructure.
All AS series switches provide IEEE 802.3af and the latest 802.3at ‘PoE+’ Power over Ethernet. With
all standalone RJ-45 ports supporting PoE+, devices such as IP Phones and Wireless Access Points can
now be connected directly to the network with data and power supplied over a single UTP cable,
reducing deployment and maintenance costs and making it much easier to install devices exactly
where they are required. With support of 802.3at PoE+, up to 30 watts of power can be supplied per
port, so power hungry devices such as Pan Tilt Zoom IP Security Cameras can be connected directly
to the network.
The AS switches comply with the latest IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Green Ethernet standard to
minimise power usage, with features such as Link Detection and Cable Length Detection. Link
Detection automatically turns the power off/on to individual ports depending on link/idle traffic
status. Cable Length Detection adjusts the signal strength based on the length of the cable – when
using shorter cables, the power consumption is reduced.
All of the Alloy AS Series switches feature Alloy’s latest user friendly responsive Web GUI, allowing
ease of configuration on all devices including PC, Tablet and Phones. Alloy have also included a
bundle of unique features including a built in Device Management System (DMS), advanced PoE
features and support for Alloy’s Android and iOS Apps.
