The Allied Telesis IX5-28GPX provides 

a high performing and scalable solution 
for today’s networks. With 24 PoE+ 
enabled 10/100/1000Mbps ports, two 

1/10 Gigabit uplinks, plus the ability to 

stack up to four units, the AT-IX5-

28GPX is the ideal solution for video 

surveillance applications where high 
performance and resilient PoE power 
are critical. 

The IX5 was designed with reliability in 

mind. It guarantees continual delivery of 
data and streaming video. Dual hot-
swappable load-sharing power supplies 
provide resilient system 
and end-point power, 
with up to 30 Watts 
available to power today’s pan, tilt and 

zoom cameras. Factor in the ability to 
operate at up to 50°C, and the IX5 
is an easy choice for modern video 
surveillance environments. 

You can form a Virtual 

Chassis Stack (VCStack

TM

) 

of up to four devices so 
you can maintain or reconfigure your 

network as necessary, without affecting 
uptime.

Ethernet Protection 
Switched Ring 

(EPSRing™) ensures 

distributed network 
environments have high-speed access to 
online resources and applications, and 
guaranteed data throughput.

Modern converged networks have 
increasing management requirements. 

Allied Telesis Management Framework 

(AMF) automates many everyday 

tasks, including configuration 
management, saving you 
valuable time and resources. 

With AMF’s powerful 

centralized management 
features, you can manage your complete 
network as a single virtual device. You 
can easily grow your network with plug-
and-play simplicity, and network node 
recovery is fully zero-touch.

The IX5 runs the advanced AlliedWare 

Plus™ fully featured operating 
system, delivering a rich feature set 
and an industry-standard CLI. The 
industry-standard CLI reduces training 
requirements and is consistent across 
all AW+ devices, simplifying network 
management. 

Advanced security features protect 

the network from the edge to the 
core. Unprecedented control over user 
access is provided with Network Access 

Control (NAC), to mitigate threats to 

network infrastructure. This ensures 
the network is accessed only by known 
users and devices - users’ adherence to 
network security policies is checked, and 
either access is granted or remediation 
is offered. Secure access can also be 
provided for guests. A secure network 

environment is guaranteed, with 
powerful control over network traffic 
types, secure management options, and 
other multi- layered security features 
built right into the AT-IX5-28GPX switch.

The flexibility of the AT-IX5-28GPX, 

coupled with the ability to seamlessly 
add new nodes to a VCStack of multiple 
units, ensures a future-proof network. 

The AT-IX5-28GPX comes with a 

comprehensive IPv6 feature set, ensuring 
it is ready for all your future network 
traffic demands. 

The IX5 supports Energy 

Efficient Ethernet, which 
automatically reduces 
the power consumed by the switch 
whenever there is no traffic on a port. 

This sophisticated feature can significantly 

reduce operating costs, by reducing the 
power requirements of the switch and 
any associated cooling equipment.
