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.


Mobile App
Monitor and manage your networks from the convenience of your mobile device using the Alta Networks app. Sign up for an Alta Labs account using just your name, email, and password or sign in using your Google or Apple account.

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.
