Enterasys A4H124-24FX Switch Delivers High-Density Fiber Connectivity for Enterprise and Industrial Networks
Scalable Layer 3 Solution Enhances Performance, Security, and Operational Resilience
Enterasys, a leader in advanced networking solutions under Extreme Networks, has introduced the A4H124-24FX, a high-density 24-port Gigabit Ethernet fiber switch engineered to meet the growing demands of enterprise data centers, industrial IoT deployments, and bandwidth-intensive applications. Combining robust performance with enterprise-grade security, the A4H124-24FX is designed to future-proof network infrastructure in dynamic and mission-critical environments.
The Enterasys A4H124-24FX features 24 SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) fiber ports, supporting both 1G and 10G connectivity for flexible uplink configurations and seamless scalability. Its non-blocking switching architecture delivers 176 Gbps of throughput, ensuring ultra-low latency and lossless data transmission for applications such as real-time analytics, HD video streaming, and industrial automation. The switch operates on ExtremeXOS, a carrier-class operating system enabling advanced Layer 3 routing protocols (OSPF, BGP), granular traffic prioritization via QoS, and automated VLAN segmentation for secure network isolation.
“The A4H124-24FX addresses the critical need for high-performance, secure, and adaptable network infrastructure,” stated an Enterasys spokesperson. “Its design prioritizes operational continuity and scalability, making it ideal for organizations transitioning to software-defined architectures or expanding IoT ecosystems.”
Key innovations include Hitless Failover technology for sub-50ms network recovery during disruptions, redundant hot-swappable power supplies (AC/DC), and compliance with industrial standards such as IEC 61850-3 and IEEE 1613 for harsh environments. The switch’s ruggedized, fanless construction ensures reliable operation in temperatures ranging from -40°C to 75°C, making it suitable for smart factories, transportation networks, and outdoor telecom installations.
Security is reinforced through MACsec encryption, dynamic threat detection, and integration with Enterasys’ Policy-Based Network Access Control, which enforces role-based access and zero-trust principles. Compatibility with ExtremeCloud IQ and OneFabric Connect SDN simplifies centralized management, enabling real-time monitoring, automated provisioning, and rapid response to cybersecurity threats.
In pilot deployments at a hyperscale data center edge and a European smart grid project, the A4H124-24FX reduced network congestion by 45% and achieved 99.999% uptime during peak operational loads. Its energy-efficient design, compliant with IEEE 802.3az, also lowered power consumption by 30% compared to conventional switches.
As industries embrace edge computing and Industry 4.0 initiatives, the Enterasys A4H124-24FX emerges as a cornerstone for building agile, secure, and scalable networks that drive digital transformation.
