GS980M 48-port Gigabit PoE+ switch

The Allied Telesis GS980M is a rack-mountable Layer 3 switch with 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports that support PoE+ power delivery. Four SFP uplink slots provide fibre connectivity for network aggregation.

Suits PoE access layers needing fibre uplinks

This switch serves networks that power VoIP phones, wireless access points or cameras through the same cable carrying data. It is not for installations that require PoE++ power budgets or 10 Gigabit uplink interfaces.

48 PoE+ ports with 4 SFP uplinks

The port count and uplink type determine whether the unit fits the planned topology. Verify the SFP transceiver compatibility and total power budget against the devices you intend to connect.

Questions about this item

What rack mounting hardware do I need for this GS980M switch?

The unit is rack-mountable and fits standard rack cabinets using the included brackets; ensure your rack has the correct depth and front-to-back clearance for airflow.

Will the four SFP uplink slots accept my existing Gigabit fibre modules?

Yes, the SFP slots support standard 1000Base-X SFP transceivers, so compatible Gigabit fibre or copper modules you already own will work in the uplinks.

How can I verify the PoE+ ports are delivering power after I connect devices?

Check the per-port LED indicators on the front panel; a lit PoE light confirms power is being supplied to the connected device on that port.
