D-Link DES-1210-28P

The DES-1210-28 is part of D-Link?s third generation of Web Smart Switches that integrates advanced management and security functions for performance and scalability. While easy to use, the DES-1210-28 provides a complete and affordable solution for small and medium businesses (SMB). It includes an innovative fanless design in a 19? metal case. All ports support auto-negotiation of MDI/MDIX crossover, making crossover cables or uplink ports redundant. This brings inexpensive and easy connectivity to your desktop. At 2000 Mbps Full Duplex, the Gigabit uplinks provide high-speed data pipes to servers or a backbone with minimum data transfer loss. D-Link?s innovative Safeguard Engine function protects the switch against traffic flooding caused by virus attacks. In addition, the switch supports Access Control Lists (ACL) and 802.1X port-based authentication through external RADIUS servers. IP-MAC-Port Binding allows administrators to trace the location of IP addresses by binding the source IP to its associated MAC address and source port.

The switch is ideal for deployment in a VoIP environment, as it supports Auto Voice VLAN and Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP) QoS for VoIP application. Auto Voice VLAN will automatically place voice traffic from an IP phone to an assigned VLAN and by doing so enhance the VoIP service. With a higher priority and individual VLAN, this feature guarantees the quality and security of VoIP traffic. DSCP marks parts of an IP packet, enabling different levels of service to be assigned for network traffic. The switch is equipped with a complete lineup of Layer 2 features, including IGMP Snooping, Port Mirroring, Spanning Tree and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). Network maintenance features include Loopback Detection and Cable Diagnostics. Loopback Detection is used to detect loops created by a specific port and automatically shut down the affected port. Cable Diagnostics is designed for network administrators to quickly examine the quality of the copper cables and also determine the type of cable error.
