The AX2300S Series are intelligent edge switches excelling in TCO reduction thatrealize secure, safe, comfortable, and convenient networking with enhanced
capabilities and capacities of 10G uplink, PoE power supply (among the highest in theindustry), operation automation, failure monitoring, and anti-tampering functions.
It upgrades uplink bandwidth, enhances PoE feeding capacity, and executes script language
and Secure Boot to meet various market needs.

Ver. 2.2(1)2. Features
2.1 Features of the AX2300S series（1）Uplink performance of max.40Gbps
・By applying the uplink 10G option license, you can upgrade 1G uplink (4 port) to 10G(10GBASE-R SFP + 4 ports). 10G link aggregation expands bandwidth up to 40G.
・Operable as a transit switch for 10G rings, and can configure a highly reliable broadband
backbone.
（2）Multi-Gigabit Ethernet (mGig)
・Supports 100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T/2.5GBASE-T ports, which allows you to accommodate
high-speed wireless LAN devices while still using your system with a twisted-pair cable(UTP).
（3）Industry-leading PoE capacity
・PoE/PoE+/PoE ++ is supported, and 15W/30W/60W power can be supplied per port. The
power of the entire system is 815W (the highest in the industry) *1.
・Peak shift power supply function
Time-shifting power supply to PoE ports ensures stable power supply to the powerreceiving equipment and prevents unstable communication during recovery from a power
failure.
*1: Industry’s highest level achieved by a 1U box-type switch through its main body only (according to ALAXALA’s research).

（4）Easy-to-operate function that greatly reduces the workload of network managers
・Easy operation/automation
Supports various tools to automate operations. The advanced script language Python
monitors logs and timers and executes commands when events occur, and the configuration
management tool Ansible automatically performs routine processes and settings. In
addition, MC operation mode reduces the burden of device replacement and restoration bysynchronizing the edge switch’s software / device data with a switch memory card inadvance.
・Zero Touch Provisioning
AX-Network Manager (operation control product) eases the replacement of an edge switch
for maintenance and failure recvery. If only the name of the device is set on the substitutemachine, you can automatically set the preset data and software without inputtingcommands.
（5）Cyberattack-resistant security
・Secure Boot
Confirms that the hardware and software have not been tampered with. Each time thedevice is started, the system prevents unauthorized access and information theft/leakage,
which may be caused through a backdoor in the system.
・Zero Trust Security
Realizes zero-trust security of campus networks (e.g., automatically detecting and blocking
malware infected terminals, and detecting anomalies such as cyberattacks) with various
security solutions: access control by network authentication, automatic cyberattack
prevention, network visualization, failure detection solution, etc.
・Network authentication
IEEE802.1X, MAC authentication, and Web-based authentication are supported andrequired to connect to the network. In addition, multi-step authentication, which allows
access only when permitted by a combination of terminal authentication and user
authentication, is supported. Furthermore, fine-grained access control can be achieved byapplying the dynamic VLAN (option for network authentication) according to the system
configuration.

AX2300S Datasheet

Ver. 2.2(1)（6）Superior network management, maintenance and operation
・USB memory card
USB memory card can be used to easily back up the configuration and collect error
messages.
・MC operation mode
By inserting USB memory card into AX2340S, the software and device information is saved.
After that, if configuration settings are changed, the changes are saved automatically. In
addition, when a factory-shipped AX2340S is started with USB memory card inserted
therein, the device starts with the previously saved software and device information(including the configuration), and the transition time from the active device to the backup
device can be shortened.
（7）Communication quality assurance through QoS・High-performance hardware-based QoS・Variety of QoS control functions
L2-QoS (IEEE802.1p, bandwidth control, priority control, discard control, etc.),
IP-QoS (Diff-Serv, bandwidth control, priority control, discard control, etc.)（8）Compactness and reduced environmental impact
・Compact body
1U-height device capable of accommodating up to 48 ports of 10BASE-T/100BASETX/1000BASE-T.
・Reduces environmental impact by complying with RoHS.
（9）Telemetry function
・Monitoring and automation to reduce the burden on network managers
Supports the PUSH type telemetry function*2, which sends a large amount of data at one
time.
*2: To be supported in the future.

（10）Fanless design and environmental resistance・Fanless (AX2340S-24T4X/-24TH4X/-24PH4X)
In addition to reducing the problems caused by dust sucked into the device, a quiet, noisefree office environment is realized.
・Improved thermal conditions for fanless devices (AX2340S-24TH4X/-24PH4X)-Achieves operation under severe temperature conditions-AX2340S-24PH4X supports PoE
