Stackable Multi-Gigabit Layer 3 Lite Switches
The Allied Telesis Centre COM GS980MX Series of Layer 3 Gigabit switches feature high-capacity, resiliency and easy management. Power over Ethernet models with Multi-Gigabit support make them an ideal solution for high-speed connectivity at the network edge.
Overview 
Allied Telesis GS980MX Series are high-performing, feature-rich, and versatile for today's networks. With Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit ports and 10 Gigabit uplinks, plus the power of Allied Telesis Virtual Chassis Stacking (VCStack™), the GS980MX Series enable flexible deployment and a resilient solution.
The Power over Ethernet models offer 2.5G and 5G Multi-Gigabit ports to support connecting and powering high-speed Wi-Fi 6 wireless networks, and other high bandwidth applications. The GS980MX/10HSm can provide up to 90 Watts (PoE++) per port. This enables powering high power devices such as high resolution PTZ cameras with heater/blowers for outdoor applications, enhanced infrared lighting, and more.
