Allied Telesis AT-FS710/16-50 ALLIED 16-port 10/100TX unmanaged switch with internal power supply, EU power cable content_copy

The Allied Telesis AT-FS710/16-50 is an unmanaged switch with 16 ports, designed for use in networks with low management requirements. It offers Fast Ethernet (10/100) connections via RJ-45 connectors and is housed in a compact 1U rack format, making it ideal for integration into existing server or network racks. The green and grey colour scheme matches the typical design of Allied Telesis products. The switch is suitable for office environments, small networks, or as an extension in existing infrastructures where simple, reliable data transmission without configurable functions is sufficient.

Applications

The AT-FS710/16-50 is suitable for applications requiring simple, plug-and-play integration. It is particularly useful in small to medium-sized enterprises, administrative buildings, schools, or facilities requiring stable network connectivity without complex settings. The unmanaged architecture means no configuration via web interface, CLI, or management software is required – the switch operates immediately after connecting to power and network cables.

Functions and Features in Detail

The switch features 16 RJ-45 ports with Fast Ethernet (10/100) support, automatically adjusting to the optimal transmission rate. The Auto MDI/MDI-X function enables direct connection to other devices without additional crossover cables. Flow control supports prevention of data loss during overloads. The MAC address table with 8000 entries ensures efficient packet forwarding within the network. Support for Jumbo Frames allows transmission of larger data packets, which can be advantageous in certain application scenarios such as file transfers or network backups.

Technology Explained Simply

The switching capacity is 3.2 Gbit/s, sufficient to handle all 16 ports simultaneously at a maximum speed of 100 Mbit/s per port. The throughput is 2.38 Mpps (millions of packets per second), ensuring efficient packet processing. The switch operates according to the network standards IEEE 802.3, IEEE 802.3az, IEEE 802.3u, and IEEE 802.3x, covering basic Ethernet and Fast Ethernet specifications, as well as energy efficiency (IEEE 802.3az) and flow control (IEEE 802.3x). Power supply is via a DC connector, with an internal power supply designed for operation at voltages from 100 to 240 V AC and frequencies from 50 to 60 Hz. The maximum power consumption is 5.4 W, enabling energy-efficient operation.

Compatibility and Accessories

The switch is compatible with all devices supporting Fast Ethernet (10/100), including PCs, printers, network storage devices, and other network end devices. The use of RJ-45 cables is required.

Mounting and Installation

The AT-FS710/16-50 is designed for rack mounting and conforms to the 1U form factor. Mounting is achieved via integrated mounting holes on the sides of the device, which fit precisely into standard 19-inch racks. Installation is straightforward: after mounting in the rack, network cables are connected to the RJ-45 ports and the device is connected to a power source. The LED indicators signal the operational status and connection of individual ports.

Operational Advantages

Operation of the switch is maintenance-free and requires no regular configuration. The low power consumption of 5.4 W contributes to energy efficiency. The operating temperature range of 0 to 50 °C and the storage temperature range of -25 to 70 °C make the switch suitable for a wide range of environments. The relative humidity during operation is 5 to 90 %, enabling flexible use in various indoor spaces. The maximum operating altitude of 2000 m above sea level extends the application range to higher locations.

Design and Dimensions

The device has a width of 210 mm, depth of 124 mm, and height of 44 mm. The weight is 870 g. The combination of compact design and rack mounting enables efficient space utilisation in server rooms or IT infrastructures.
