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 enables 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 a 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 FrameworkTM Plus  (AMF Plus), a 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, auto-provisioning and auto-recovery enable plug-and-play networking and zero-touch management.
Resiliency
  • Ethernet Protection Switching Ring
    (EPSRingTM) and 10 Gigabit Ethernet allows several XS900MX Series 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 enterprise networks.

  • Stackable
    Flexi-stacking allows a user to stack two XS900MX Series switches, with the choice of using 10G SFP+ direct attach cables 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 multi-layered security features built right into the XS900MX Series switches:

    • Tri-Authentication
    • Multiple Dynamic VLAN
    • Enhanced Guest VLAN

The XS916MXT-50 consumes a maximum of 78W and generates a maximum heat dissipation of 270 BTU/h with a noise level of 42 dBA. The XS916MXS-50 consumes a maximum of 53W, generates 180 BTU/h of heat, and has a noise level of 42 dBA.

What are the latency characteristics of these switches?

The latency for different packet sizes on these switches ranges from 1.35µs to 6.93µs for 10Gbps ports, depending on the packet size.

What cryptographic algorithms and security protocols are supported by these switches?

The switches support various cryptographic algorithms, including AES, DES, RSA, SHA-1, SHA-2, and more. They also offer features like SSH, SSL, TACACS+, and IEEE 802.1X authentication.

What is the purpose of Flexi-stacking with the XS900MX Series switches?

Flexi-stacking allows users to stack two XS900MX Series switches using either 10G SFP+ direct attach cables or RJ45 copper connectivity. This provides flexibility and redundancy, and up to 28 x 10G ports can be provisioned as a single virtual switch in one rack unit.

Can the XS916MXT and XS916MXS switches support IPv6 management and forwarding?

Yes, both switches support IPv6 management and forwarding, making them suitable for modern networks that use IPv6 alongside IPv4.

What is the purpose of Ethernet Protection Switching Ring (EPSRingTM)?

EPSRingTM is a resiliency feature that allows several XS900MX Series switches to form a protected ring capable of recovering within as little as 50ms. It is ideal for high-performance and high-availability requirements in enterprise networks.
