Enterasys A2H124-24FX-RH Switch Delivers Enterprise-Grade Performance for Demanding Network Environments
High-Density Fiber Switch Combines Scalability, Security, and Industrial Resilience

Enterasys, a subsidiary of Extreme Networks and a pioneer in secure, high-performance networking solutions, has launched the A2H124-24FX-RH, a 24-port Gigabit Ethernet fiber switch designed to meet the escalating demands of enterprise networks, industrial IoT deployments, and data center edge applications. This advanced Layer 3 switch combines high-density connectivity with ruggedized reliability, setting a new standard for mission-critical network infrastructure.

The Enterasys A2H124-24FX-RH features 24 SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) fiber ports, supporting both Gigabit and 10 Gigabit uplinks for flexible bandwidth scaling. Its non-blocking switching capacity of 176 Gbps ensures ultra-low latency and seamless data throughput, even in high-traffic environments. Engineers emphasize its ExtremeXOS operating system, which enables advanced features like dynamic routing (OSPF, BGP), Quality of Service (QoS) prioritization, and MACsec encryption for end-to-end data security. Compliance with MEF 6.1 and MEF 10.3 standards guarantees carrier-class Ethernet performance, while its ruggedized, fanless design (operating at -40°C to 75°C) ensures durability in harsh industrial settings.

“The A2H124-24FX-RH is engineered for organizations requiring uncompromising network uptime and future-proof scalability,” stated an Enterasys spokesperson. “Its combination of security, programmability, and industrial-grade resilience makes it ideal for smart factories, transportation hubs, and distributed cloud architectures.”

Key innovations include Hitless Failover technology for sub-50ms network recovery during link failures and redundant, hot-swappable power supplies (AC or DC) for 99.999% availability. The switch’s OneFabric Connect architecture simplifies integration with existing SDN (Software-Defined Networking) ecosystems, while its Extreme Management Center compatibility provides centralized visibility and automated threat response.

In pilot deployments at a European smart manufacturing facility and an Asian logistics data center, the A2H124-24FX-RH reduced network downtime by 60% and improved energy efficiency by 30% through intelligent power management. Its support for Precision Time Protocol (PTP) and SyncE also enabled microsecond-level synchronization for 5G backhaul and industrial automation systems.

As industries embrace digital transformation, IoT, and edge computing, Enterasys’ A2H124-24FX-RH emerges as a cornerstone for building agile, secure, and scalable networks that drive operational excellence.
