• 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).
• AS200/12/XF 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, AS200/12/XF 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.
• AS200/12/XF 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.
• AS200/12/XF supports ISSU (In-Service Software Upgrade) and GR (Graceful Restart), guaranteeing the user data non-stop forwarding when the system is upgrading.
• AS200/12/XF supports BFD and realizes fault detection and service recovery in seconds through linking with layer-2 or layer- 3 protocol.
• AS200/12/XF 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 AS200/12/XF is 50ms, meeting the requirement of the carrier-level service.

Comprehensive Service
