Meet the Allied Telesis AT x230 switches
For the optimal operation of a surveillance security system, the choice of networking equipment is crucial.
A leading supplier in the field, the Allied Telesis AT-x230 switches range provides unique features that significantly enhance surveillance system installations.
The Allied Telesis AT-x230 switches are powerful networking devices that play a crucial role in managing and directing network traffic efficiently. Acting as the backbone of the network infrastructure, they facilitate seamless communication and data transfer between surveillance devices such as IP cameras, NVRs, and monitoring stations.
They are designed to handle large volumes of high-definition video feeds efficiently, ensuring real-time monitoring and recording of critical surveillance footage. They provide high-speed connectivity and reliable data transmission, meaning real-time monitoring can be transmitted without delays or buffering, maintaining the integrity of the surveillance system.
According to our National Product Manager Mark Shannon, the real value of the AT-x230 switches range of products to surveillance systems, comes down to network security.
“The AT-x230 switches are an incredibly powerful range of devices that provide advanced security features to safeguard against potential threats. These security features include, Network Access Control (NAC) which gives unprecedented control over user access to the network, traffic encryption protocols, and intrusion detection mechanisms ensuring confidentiality and integrity of sensitive surveillance data in order to mitigate threats to network infrastructure. Further, if you’re looking to power network devices such as IP cameras and wireless access points, the AT-x230 switches offer Power over Ethernet (PoE) support. With 8, 16 or 24 Gigabit ports, SFP uplinks, and fanless models for silent operation, the x230 Series enables flexible deployment and secure connectivity at the network edge eliminating the need for separate power sources, streamlining deployment and reducing overall costs”, explains Shannon.
