Support mixed-media industrial networking with a switch built for edge aggregation and flexible uplink design. The Allied Telesis AT-IE360-12GHX-980 provides 8 x 10/100/1000T ports, 2 x 100/1000X SFP slots, and 2 combo interfaces, giving infrastructure teams multiple ways to connect endpoints and extend the network upstream. That mix matters in real deployments. Copper ports handle local devices and controllers, while SFP uplinks give you fiber options for longer runs, electrical isolation, or cleaner backbone integration. The combo interfaces add deployment flexibility when you need to adapt to site conditions without redesigning the switch layer. This model is a strong fit for industrial closets, transportation sites, utility spaces, and other environments where network design must account for distance, interference, and service continuity. It is the kind of switch you choose when the cost of a bad fit is higher than the cost of the hardware itself. With Allied Telesis, you get a purpose-built access platform that supports practical topology choices and helps keep critical connections stable at the edge.
