Product Description

The Allied Telesis FS980M series offers a range of compact and cost-effective switches designed for simple network deployments. The AT-FS980M/9-10 model is particularly suited for small office and home office (SOHO) environments, providing essential network connectivity with the added benefit of Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+). It features eight 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet ports, each capable of delivering PoE+ power to connected devices like IP phones, wireless access points, or surveillance cameras. This simplifies installation by eliminating the need for separate power adapters for these devices. In addition to the Fast Ethernet ports, the switch includes one Gigabit SFP port, which allows for a high-speed uplink to a router or a core network switch. This ensures that the network backbone can handle the aggregated traffic from the connected devices without becoming a bottleneck. As an unmanaged switch, the AT-FS980M/9-10 is designed for plug-and-play operation, requiring no complex configuration, making it an ideal choice for users who need a straightforward and reliable networking solution. This switch is an excellent option for users seeking a simple, reliable, and power-efficient way to expand their network. Its compact size and fanless design make it unobtrusive in any office environment. The combination of PoE+ capabilities on multiple ports and a Gigabit uplink port provides a practical and cost-effective solution for basic networking needs in small-scale deployments.
