PRODUCT INFORMATION
x510 Series
StackablE GiGabit SwitchES
The Allied Telesis x510 Series of stackable Gigabit switches includes a full
range of security and resiliency features, coupled with easy management,
making them the ideal choice for network access applications.
Allied Telesis x510 Series switches are
a high-performing and feature-rich
choice for today's networks. They
offer a versatile solution for enterprise
applications. With a choice of 24- and
48-port models with 10Gigabit uplink
ports, plus the power of Allied Telesis
Virtual Chassis Stacking (VCStack™), the
x510 Series can connect anything from a
small workgroup to a large business.
Powerful Network Management
Meeting the increased management
requirements of modern converged
networks, Allied Telesis Management
Framework (AMF) automates many
everyday tasks including configuration
management. The complete
network can be managed
as a single virtual device
with powerful centralized
management features. Growing the
network can be accomplished with plug-
and-play simplicity, and network node
recovery is fully zero-touch.
Network resiliency
The convergence of network services in
the enterprise has led to increasing
demand for highly available networks
with minimal downtime. VCStack,
in conjunction with link aggregation,
provides a network with no single
point of failure and an easy solution for
resiliency in access applications. The
addition of Ethernet
Protection Switched
Ring (EPSRing™) resilient
ring protocol ensures
distributed network

segments have high-speed, resilient
access to online resources and
applications.
The x510 Series can form a
VCStack of up to four units
for enhanced resiliency
and simplified device management. Full
EPSRing support and VCStack LD (Long
Distance), which enables stacks to be
created over long distance fiber links,
make the x510 Series the perfect choice
for distributed environments.
Reliable
The x510 Series was designed with
reliability in mind, and guarantees
continual delivery of essential services.
With dual built-in power supplies and
near-hitless online stack reconfiguration,
reconfiguration and maintenance may
be performed without affecting network
uptime. Dual internal PSUs eliminate the
need for an external Redundant Power
Supply (RPS), which occupies valuable
rack space. The x510 Series also features
front-to-back cooling, making it ideal for
data center applications.
Secure
Advanced security features protect
the network from the edge to the
core. Unprecedented control over
user access is provided with Network
Access Control (NAC), mitigating
threats to network infrastructure. This
ensures the network is accessed only
by known users and devices — all users'
adherence to network security policies
is checked, and then either access
is granted or remediation is offered.
Secure access can also be provided for
guests.
A secure network environment is
guaranteed. The x510 Series offers
powerful control over network traffic
types, secure management options, loop
guard to protect against cabling mistakes,
and tri-authentication for comprehensive
access control.
Future-proof
The x510 Series ensures a future-
proof network, with superior flexibility
coupled with the ability to stack
multiple units. All x510 Series models
feature 10 Gigabit uplinks ports and
a comprehensive IPv6 feature set,
to ensure they are ready for future
network traffic demands.
Environmentally friendly
The x510 Series supports Energy
Efficient Ethernet (EEE), automatically
reducing the power
consumed by the switch
whenever there is no
traffic on a port. This sophisticated
feature can significantly reduce
operating costs by reducing the power
requirements of the switch and any
associated cooling equipment.
