Unless the infrastructure is upgraded to cope with increased speeds, it creates a bottleneck which negatively impacts the effectiveness of the wireless network. But increasing speeds from 1 Gigabit has traditionally meant moving to 10 Gigabit. This requires new cabling, which is expensive and time consuming to install.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAutonomous Management Framework (AMF) Master\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eContinuous PoE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVCStack up to 4 units at any port speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVCStack-LD for long distance stacking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e40G uplinks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4 x 10G breakout cables for 40G ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2.5G for high-speed wireless applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOpenFlow v1.3\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEPSR and G.8032 Ethernet Ring Protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEPSR Master\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Allied Telesis","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45144025399481,"sku":"AT-X550-18XTQ-J90","price":9350.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0274\/4490\/4014\/files\/234846176.jpg?v=1751670910","url":"https:\/\/www.lttpartners.com\/products\/allied-telesis-x550-18xtq-layer-3-switch","provider":"LTT Partners","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
