With its Power-over-Ethernet capabilities (PoE), the DGS-1210-52MP supports 48 Gigabit ports and an overall PoE budget of 370 watts, making it ideal for high density IP Surveillance or IP Voice networks. The first eight ports comply with the IEEE 802.3at PoE+ standard (up to 30W), while the remaining ports support IEEE 802.3af (up to 15.4W). In addition, the DGS-1210-52MP brings four Gigabit SFP ports for fiber connectivity.
"The DGS-1210-52MP represents our highest density Web Smart PoE switch," said Steven Olen, director of product marketing, D-Link Systems, Inc. "Rack-mountable and only 1RU high, it can power up to 48 PoE and PoE+ devices – including power hungry devices like 802.11ac access points and outdoor IP cameras with heaters and blowers."
For smaller non-PoE applications, D-Link added the DGS-1210-10 to its portfolio. With eight Gigabit ports and two Gigabit SFP ports, the DGS-1210-10 is an ideal, cost-effective solution for securely extending network connections to areas with less demanding port requirements. The two additional SFP ports also provide additional flexibility, allowing longer fiber runs in larger building and MDUs.
Administrators have multiple choices for managing their DGS-1210 series Web Smart switches, including an intuitive Web based graphical user interface, SNMP, simplified CLI through Telnet, or D-Link's Network Assistant Utility. The Web based management interface also provides administrators with a convenient way to monitor and control PoE functions, including displaying real-time PoE power usage, setting PoE time profiles and remotely rebooting IP cameras or access points from anywhere on the network, including over the Internet.
Additional benefits include:
* Auto Surveillance VLAN: Ensures real-time video quality for monitoring and control without compromising the transmission of conventional network data
* Bandwidth Control: Network administrators can reserve bandwidth for important functions that require more bandwidth
* Advanced Security Features: Network Administrators can keep unwanted users off the network with tools including Access Control Lists, Smart Binding (IP-MAC-Port binding) and DHCP Server Screening
* IPv6 Management: Allows seamless migration from IPv4 to IPv6 services without further hardware upgrade
* D-Link Network Assistant Utility: Allows administrators to discover multiple D-Link Smart Switches within the same L2 network segment, making initial setup of the Smart Switches quick and easy
* Limited Lifetime Warranty: The DGS-1210-52MP and DGS-1210-10 carry a Limited Lifetime Warranty, furthering D-Link's commitment to product quality and long-term customer confidence
