IEEE 802.3
af/at/bt
Intelligent PoE++ Power Delivery for Next-Gen Networks
Compliant with IEEE 802.3af/at/bt, this switch auto-detects and supplies exact power to devices—no manual setup. It has 48 PoE+ ports (30W max) and 8 configurable PoE++ ports (60W max), with a 740W total power budget. Ideal for power-hungry devices like IP phones, Wi-Fi 6/Wi-Fi7 APs, surveillance cameras, and smart endpoints, keeping networks powered and connected seamlessly.
Rich L2/L3 Features
Pack top 24 high-demand L2/L3 features, spanning stability, scalability, and smart control, to elevate network performance and simplify deployment.

Advanced Routing Capabilities
Equipped with powerful routing capabilities, including static routing, VRF, OSPFv2/v3, BGP, and MP-BGP, this model ensures flexible network segmentation and dynamic route management for demanding enterprise and campus environments.

Instant Wi-Fi Roaming:
10ms AP Handover, Zero Service Disruption
The Anycast Gateway architecture, combined with leaf switch traffic passthrough, BGP-EVPN, and ARP-to-Host, enables seamless 10ms AP roaming across the network.

HIGHLIGHT
BFD-Based Link Fault Detection & Re-routing in Sub-50ms
BFD-based link fault detection and sub-50ms re-routing capabilities ensure rapid, reliable failover across critical routing protocols including OSPF, BGP, and IS-IS, minimizing network downtime and maintaining uninterrupted traffic flow even during unexpected link failures.


HIGHLIGHT
Achieve Seamless Redundancy & Active-active Reliability with MC-LAG Support
MC-LAG support enables networks to maintain uninterrupted connectivity through seamless redundancy and active-active reliability,
ensuring zero downtime and optimal performance during link or device failures.
OPTIONAL
Enterprise SONiC Switches with PTP Support
The 48-port gigabit switch fully supports IEEE1588 PTPv2 and SMPTE 2059-2 standards both through hardware and software. The hardware port supports PTP as a Boundary Clock (BC) or Transparent Clock (TC), with customizable modules to fit customer needs. On the software side, Asteraix leads the way in implementing and optimizing PTP in SONiC, delivering top performance on our AsterNOS Enterprise Distribution. Currently, it supports PTP Class C with a maximum time error of ≤10 ns.



OPTIONAL
Network Packet Broker Functionality
The SONiC-based campus switches take full advantage of SONiC’s open and containerized architecture, and fully leverage its capabilities by installing the new APP-PB container and deploying packet broker docker functionality on SONiC.
This integration unlocks a range of advanced features, including traffic mirroring, raw data tagging, filtering, aggregation, preprocessing, load balancing, and output replication.
