Layer 2 box-type switchesAX2300S Series

The AX2300S, which are Gigabit layer 2 switches, satisfy the demands of the new era with the enhanced PoE capacity to accommodate ever-increasing Wi-Fi gadgets.

AX2300S

The AX2630S Series is a series of intelligent edge switches excelling in reducing TCO and realizing secure and safe networks with comfort and convenience. You can fortify your network with its high-grade features (e.g., expansion of uplink bandwidth (10G ring), industry-leading PoE capacity, operation automation & failure monitoring, measures against device tampering).

  • With the option license, you can upgrade four uplink ports from 1G to 10G, which allows you to handle increasing traffic.
    In addition, you'll be able to use the AX2340S as a transit switch on a 10G ring.
  • Provides max. 815W PoE capacity to accommodate increasing WiFi6 access points and high-functionality network cameras.
    (by adding an internal power supply module, you can feed full power using PoE+ (30W))
  • Supports various functions required for floor switches (e.g., triple authentication, loop-detection function) .
  • Cooperates with the automatic cyberattack prevention solution, which helps isolate a malware-infected terminal from LAN.
  • Supports L2 Ring Protocol that enables fast switchover within 1 sec. (transit only).
  • Supports the Telemetry function that allows you to send mirrored data periodically or on event-driven basis in realtime mode.
  • Supports automation using Python /Ansible.
  • Supports wireless Bluetooth consoles.
  • Supports the Secure Boot function: device does not start up unless its authenticity (proof that device/OS is not tampered) is confirmed. 
  • Provides 8-year warranty if necessary (bundled with products).
  • Provides a multi-gigabit (mGig) model supporting PoE++ (60W), which allows you to expand the bandwidth up to 2.5Gbps (use a UTP cable of category 5e or higher).
  • Possible to choose a best fitting model for your networking environment. Environmentally resistant fanless models including a PoE fanless model are available.

Network Configuration Example

Network Configuration Example

40Gbps Uplink

  • With the option license, you can upgrade 1G uplink (4 ports) to 10G uplink (4 ports).
  • Use of up to 40G bandwidth by 10G link aggregation
  • Realizes high-reliability backbones with expanded bandwidth to handle increasing traffic. Used for transit switches of 10G rings.

Industry-leading PoE capacity

  • PoE capable of accommodating increasing Wi-Fi access points and high-functionality network cameras
    (AX2340S-24P4X: max. 535W, AX2340S-48P4X: max. 785W, AX2340S-16P8MP2X: max. 815W)
  • PoE/PoE+ of 15W/30W (per port)
  • Time-shifting power feeding to PoE devices saves electricity during peak consumption times (peak shift power supply function).

Multi-gigabit (mGig) support (AX2340S-16P8MP2X)

  • Achieves 2.5Gbps transmission rate with a UTP cable of category 5e or higher (just replace a switch, no need of cable replacement).
  • Supports PoE (15.4W), PoE+ (30W) and PoE++ (60W).

Easy-to-operate function that greatly reduces the workload of network managers

  • The AX2340S Series serves as an L2 switch on a network edge, maintaining solid connectivity, usability and interoperability.
  • The L2 loop detection function detects a device connection error on a network and prevents a loop.
  • The AX2340S Series employs a USB memory card, in which logs and software updates are stored (SD card script).
  • Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) allows you to download/install OS and configuration settings just by connecting to a network.
  • The AX2340S Series supports the advanced script language Python and the configuration management tool Ansible (for simplified and automated operation).
  • A USB port containing a Bluetooth dongle (under planning) will be available, which allows you to use your tablet/PC as a wireless console.
  • The AX2340S Series supports the telemetry function, which sends mirrored data and subscribers' information (e.g., MAC addresses newly learned) in Realtime*1.

*1: To be supported in future.

Security that fends off cyber attacks

  • Secure Boot allows you to check hardware/software authenticity before boot-up. The backdoor risks such as illegal access and information theft/leakage can be prevented.
  • Triple authentication (IEEE802.1, Web-based authentication, MAC authentication) allows you to perform user authentication even in an environment where various terminal gadgets/OS exist.
  • Multi-step authentication (combination of multiple authentication methods) allows simultaneous implementation of user authentication and blocking of unauthorized terminals.
  • Realizes zero-trust security for campus networks with various security solutions (e.g., access control by network authentication, automatic cyberattack prevention, network visualization, failure detection solution).

Long life solution

  • 8-year warranty on request basis (bundled with products)
  • ALAXALA provides up to 10 years maintenance & troubleshooting support (long-term stable operation of customers' networks).
