Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 Ready

The AIRPRO AP-SG24MG Series is purpose-built to support next-generation Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) deployments. Multi-Gigabit Ethernet interfaces provide 1G/2.5G/5G/10G connectivity on supported models, helping eliminate the traditional 1GbE bottleneck between access points and the wired network.

Support for PoE, PoE+, and PoE++, with power delivery options of up to 30W, 60W, and 90W per port, enables high-performance wireless access points and other powered devices to receive both data and power through a single Ethernet connection.

Combined with high-speed uplinks, the AP-SG24MG Series provides the bandwidth, power, and scalability required for high-density wireless environments and next-generation enterprise applications.

Carrier-Class Resiliency

Designed for networks where availability is critical, the AP-SG24MG Series provides high-speed 25G and 100G uplink options on supported models, enabling resilient connections to aggregation and core network layers.

Multiple uplinks can be deployed for redundancy, link aggregation, and ring-based network architectures, improving overall network availability while providing additional bandwidth for future expansion.

Support for ITU-T G.8032 Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) enables rapid recovery from network failures, with protection switching typically within 50 milliseconds, helping maintain service continuity for latency-sensitive applications.

Selected interfaces also provide enhanced surge and lightning protection of up to 6kV/8kV, helping protect network infrastructure in electrically demanding deployment environments.

Virtual Switch Framework (VSF)

Virtual Switch Framework (VSF) enables multiple compatible AIRPRO switches to operate as a single logical switching system.

By virtualizing multiple physical switches, VSF increases overall port density and system scalability while simplifying network architecture and day-to-day operations. Configuration, monitoring, and management can be centralized through a unified logical device, reducing operational complexity.

VSF also enhances network resiliency by allowing member switches and inter-switch links to provide redundancy within the virtualized switching system.

Advanced Layer 3 Routing

The AP-SG24MG Series delivers high-performance hardware-based Layer 3 switching and routing, supporting scalable enterprise campus and aggregation network architectures.

Dynamic routing capabilities include:

  • Static and default routing
  • RIP
  • OSPF
  • BGP
  • Policy-Based Routing (PBR)

Policy-Based Routing (PBR) provides additional control over traffic forwarding by allowing routing decisions to be based on defined policies rather than destination address alone. This is particularly useful in networks with multiple WAN connections, Internet gateways, or traffic-engineering requirements.

Advanced Multicast Capabilities

The AP-SG24MG Series provides comprehensive Layer 2 and Layer 3 multicast functionality to support applications such as IPTV, video distribution, surveillance, collaboration, and enterprise multimedia services.

Layer 2 multicast capabilities include IGMP v1/v2/v3 Snooping, Fast Leave, multicast filtering, and Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR).

Layer 3 multicast capabilities include:

  • IGMP v1/v2/v3
  • PIM-DM
  • PIM-SM
  • PIM-SSM
  • MSDP

Additional multicast controls, including multicast sender/receiver management and unauthorized multicast source detection, help administrators maintain predictable multicast performance while controlling unnecessary traffic across the network.

Comprehensive Quality of Service

The AP-SG24MG Series provides advanced Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities for converged enterprise networks carrying voice, video, business applications, wireless traffic, and standard data services.

With up to 8 hardware queues per port, network administrators can classify and prioritize different traffic types according to application and business requirements.

Traffic classification and prioritization can be based on:

  • IEEE 802.1p
  • DSCP
  • IP precedence
  • TCP/UDP port
  • Access control and traffic classification policies

Flexible scheduling and traffic management help ensure that latency-sensitive applications such as voice, video conferencing, IPTV, and real-time communications receive appropriate network resources.

Bi-directional rate limiting at the port and traffic-class level provides granular bandwidth control, helping prevent individual users or applications from consuming excessive network resources.

Comprehensive IPv6 Support

The AP-SG24MG Series provides extensive IPv6 switching, management, security, and routing capabilities, enabling organizations to deploy IPv4/IPv6 dual-stack networks and transition toward next-generation IPv6 infrastructure.

Hardware-based IPv6 forwarding delivers high-performance packet processing without compromising switching performance.

Comprehensive IPv6 capabilities help organizations address the increasing number of connected devices while providing the scalability required for enterprise, campus, IoT, wireless, and cloud-connected environments.

High-Speed and Scalable Architecture

Designed for growing enterprise networks, the AP-SG24MG Series combines Multi-Gigabit access, high-power PoE, high-speed 25G/100G uplinks, Layer 3 routing, multicast, QoS, and virtualization capabilities within a scalable switching platform.

The architecture is well suited for:

  • Wi-Fi 6/6E/7 access networks
  • Enterprise campus networks
  • Education and university campuses
  • Hotels and hospitality networks
  • Healthcare facilities
  • Smart buildings
  • High-density surveillance deployments
