D-Link's DGS-1210 Series Gigabit Smart Managed Switches integrates advanced management as well as security functions that provide performance and scalability. Management options for the switch include SNMP, Web Management, D-Link Network Assistant Utility, and compact command lines. The DGS-1210 Series uses Auto Voice VLAN, ensuring bandwidth is prioritised for a smoother voice performance. The DGS-1210-10/10P/20/28 features a fanless design that allows for quieter operation and helps to extend the device's lifetime, while the DGS-1210-28P/28MP/52/52P/52MP feature a smart fan design that adjusts the fan speed depending on device temperature, saving energy and cutting costs without sacrificing performance.

The DGS-1210 Series includes a range of high power budget PoE-enable switches for businesses looking to power VoIP phones, wireless access points or network cameras. The DGS-1210-10P is a 8-port Smart Managed PoE+ Switch that provides 8 PoE-enabled ports that can supply power of up to 30 W each. Whereas the DGS-1210-28P/28MP/52P/52MP are Smart Managed PoE+ switches with power budgets of 193/370 W, that provides 24/48 PoE-enabled ports with 4/8 ports that support up to 30 W of power output following IEEE 802.3at standard. The design allows more flexibility in power allocation for a variety of powered devices with affordable installation costs.

Extensive Management and Layer 2 Features

Equipped with a complete line-up of L2 features, the DGS-1210 Series includes IGMP snooping, port mirroring, Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). The IEEE 802.3x flow control function allows servers to directly connect to the switch for fast, reliable data transfers. At 2000 Mbps full duplex, the Gigabit ports provide high-speed data pipes to servers with minimum impact to data transfer fidelity. 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. The cable diagnostic feature, designed primarily for administrators and customer service representatives, can rapidly discover errors and determine the cable quality, allowing hassle free diagnostics and maintenance.

Quality of Service and Bandwidth Control

The DGS-1210 Series supports Auto Surveillance VLAN (ASV), and Auto Voice VLAN, which are best suited for VoIP and video surveillance deployments. Auto Surveillance VLAN is a new, industry-leading technology that the DGS-1210 Series Gigabit Smart Managed Switches provides. This technology consolidates data and surveillance video transmission through a single DGS-1210 Series, thus sparing businesses the expense of dedicated hardware and facilities. ASV also ensures the quality of real-time video for monitoring and control without compromising the transmission of conventional network data. The Auto Voice VLAN technology enhances the VoIP service by automatically placing voice traffic from an IP phone to an assigned VLAN. With higher priority and individual VLAN, these features guarantee the quality and security of VoIP traffic. The DSCP markings on Ethernet packets enable different levels of service to be assigned to network traffic. As a result, these voice and video packets take precedence over other packets. In addition, with bandwidth control, network administrators can reserve bandwidth for important functions that are higher priority or require a larger bandwidth.
