Advanced Hardware Architecture Design & Leading Processing Capacity
- Equipped with high-performance ASIC switching chips and multi- core processors, AS300/12 supports up to 240Gbps switching capacity, meeting the high-performance, high-capacity, high- density and expandable requirements of data centers.
- Supports switching between front-back and back-front mode and fan automatic speed regulation
Rich Data Centre Business Features
- ABVSS (ALPHA BRIDGE Virtual Switch System).
- AS300/12 supports ABVSS, which can virtualize multiple physical devices into one in logic. The virtualized system is superior to the independent physical device in performance, reliability, flexibility and management.
- Doubled Performance: The virtualized system makes the best use of each link in the device and avoids the blocking of STP to the link.
- High-reliability: Based on the advanced distributed processing technique and the efficient function of cross-physical device link aggregation, AS300/12 provides with non-stop layer-3 routing forwarding and avoids business interruption caused by single points of failure, greatly improving the reliability of the virtual system.
- Flexibility: With the virtual cluster service, the distance of virtual cluster system can expand to 80KM, breaking the geographic restriction of traditional cluster technique.
Data Centre High Reliability
- Based on the HPS (Hitless Protection System), the key power supply system adopts a redundant design, modularized and hot- swappable, and supports seamless switching in case of failure without interrupting business.
- AS300/12 supports redundancy protection mechanism such as STP/RSTP/MSTP protocol, VRRP protocol, ring network protection, dual uplink active/standby link protection and LACP link aggregation.
- AS300/12 supports ISSU (In-Service Software Upgrade) and GR (Graceful Restart), guaranteeing the user data non-stop forwarding when the system is upgrading.
- AS300/12 supports BFD and realizes fault detection and service recovery in seconds through linking with layer-2 or layer- 3 protocol.
- AS300/12 has perfect Ethernet OAM, 802.3ah and 802.1ag, which can real-time monitor the network operating state and rapidly locate the malfunction.
- High Reliability (99.999%): MTTR of AS300/12 is 50ms, meeting the requirement of the carrier-level service.
Comprehensive Service
- Supports complete layer-2 and layer-3 multicast routing protocol and meets the access requirement of IPTV, multi-terminal HD video monitoring and HD video meeting.
- Supports complete layer-3 routing protocol and a super-large routing table capacity, which make super-large data center network, campus network, enterprise network and industry private networks available.
