A2H124-24FX-RH | Layer 3 Managed Switch

Technical Specifications

Key Features and Advantages

The A2H124-24FX-RH delivers carrier-class reliability with 99.999% uptime through hitless software upgrades and redundant power/control planes. Its hardware-accelerated ACL implementation processes 1 million security policies without performance degradation.

A2H124-24FX

Advanced traffic management: Features dynamic buffer allocation technology that reduces packet loss during congestion by 70% compared to standard switches. The integrated NetSight management system enables automated policy enforcement across mixed-vendor networks.

Future-ready architecture: Supports seamless upgrade to 10G connectivity via the four SFP+ ports. The energy-efficient design consumes 40% less power than comparable switches through adaptive fan control and ASIC optimization.

Application Areas

In campus networks, the A2H124-24FX-RH serves as core distribution switch for high-density wireless AP backhaul, supporting <1ms latency for VoIP traffic. Its per-port policy enforcement enables granular QoS control in university lecture capture systems.

Healthcare facilities utilize its MACsec encryption for HIPAA-compliant medical imaging data transfers between PACS systems. The redundant power architecture ensures continuous operation of critical care monitoring equipment.

Industrial IoT deployments leverage the switch’s extended temperature tolerance and fiber-optic immunity to EMI in factory automation networks, particularly for robotic assembly line control.
