Description

The Allied Telesis x560-28YSQ is a 25 Gigabit Layer 3 Stackable Switch designed for bandwidth-intensive enterprise distribution and high-density server connectivity. Featuring 24x SFP28 ports (1/10/25G) and 4x QSFP28 uplink ports (40/100G), it delivers flexible multi-speed access with high-capacity uplinks in a 1U rack-mount form factor. VCStack virtualisation supports stacking up to 4 units in a resilient ring topology, while dual built-in power supplies ensure continuous high availability.

Running AlliedWare Plus™, the x560-28YSQ supports advanced automation via AMF Plus (zero-touch provisioning, auto-backup, auto-recovery), SDN orchestration via OpenFlow v1.3, and network automation through NETCONF/RESTCONF with YANG data modelling. Security is enterprise-grade with MACsec encryption, Active Fiber Monitoring™, and SHA-2 cryptography. This SKU ships with dual fixed PSUs and an AU power cord, ready for immediate deployment. Available now at iptrading.com.au — competitive prices and local support.

FAQs

Q: What port speeds are supported on the SFP28 and QSFP28 ports?
A: The 24 SFP28 ports each support 1G, 10G, and 25G speeds, giving flexible connectivity for servers and distribution links. The 4 QSFP28 uplink ports support 40G and 100G, providing high-capacity aggregation and inter-switch connectivity.

Q: How does VCStack work on the x560-28YSQ?
A: VCStack virtualises up to 4 x560-28YSQ units into a single logical switch. Stacking is supported at any port speed using a dual-connection ring topology for path resiliency. Long-distance stacking over fibre is also supported for distributed campus or data centre deployments.

Q: Why does this SKU (AT-X560-28YSQ-040) include dual fixed PSUs?
A: The -040 variant ships with dual built-in power supplies already installed, providing power redundancy and near-hitless online stack reconfiguration out of the box. This is ideal for mission-critical environments where unplanned downtime is unacceptable.

Q: Does the x560-28YSQ support network automation and SDN?
A: Yes. The switch runs AlliedWare Plus™ and supports OpenFlow v1.3 for SDN orchestration, plus NETCONF/RESTCONF with YANG data modelling for programmatic network automation. AMF Plus provides zero-touch provisioning, centralised management, auto-backup, and auto-recovery.

Q: What security features are included?
A: Security features include MACsec encryption for point-to-point Ethernet link protection, Active Fiber Monitoring™ (AFM) to detect fibre eavesdropping, and SHA-2 cryptographic hashing (SHA-224, SHA-256, SHA-384). Network resilience is further supported by EPSRing™, G.8032, and MRP fast-failover protocols.

Q: Can I purchase the AT-X560-28YSQ-040 in Australia with local support?
A: Yes. iptrading.com.au stocks Allied Telesis networking equipment including the x560 Series for Australian businesses. You'll receive competitive pricing, local after-sales support, and fast dispatch. Contact our team or order directly at iptrading.com.au.
