Egress and Ingress Rate Limiting
The switches offer egress and ingress rate limiting. This allows inbound and outbound traffic to be limited to a portion of the available bandwidth per connection.
For example, a hotel may want to provide guests with free 5 Mbps internet download (egress) connections but require guests pay an extra fee for 100+ Mbps speeds.
The upload (ingress) speeds from the guests devices can also be limited.

Included Rack Studs
The included rack studs with a toolless mounting system are designed to simplify the installation of equipment in server racks. These studs allow for quick and secure attachment of rack-mounted devices without the need for traditional tools like screwdrivers or wrenches.
IGMP Snooping
IGMP Snooping functionality is incorporated into Alta Labs switches to optimize network performance by reducing unnecessary traffic. This is particularly helpful for IPTV or multicast video streams.
802.1X Authentication
Alta Labs switches support 802.1X authentication to allow for more dynamic methods of network authentication. VoIP phones and other 802.1X‑compliant hardware can authenticate themselves on to the network, helping with deployment on larger networks.
Network Loop Detection
Network loops can deteriorate performance or even cause network failure. Our built‑in network loop detection functionality is designed to help you eliminate any potential network loops.
Device Cards
Easily view connection details and configure your ports by clicking the device icon.
Site Manager
The Alta Site Manager provides an overview of all sites, displays the number of devices for each site, and shows when updates are needed. New sites can be added and current sites can be duplicated or removed. Use the search option to look for a specific site.
Status Snapshots
View upload and download throughput with a visual timeline on the dashboard for each AP displayed along with the number of connected devices, average processor load, channel load, and average connected devices.
Select a snapshot of the last minute, last hour, last two days, or last two months.
