High-Speed Gigabit Connectivity for Every Device
The DGS-1024D brings the speed of Gigabit Ethernet to all 24 ports for a truly high-speed network. Whether your network has a mix of legacy and modern connection interfaces, each port allows for standard Ethernet (10 Mbps), Fast Ethernet (100 Mbps), or Gigabit Ethernet (1000 Mbps) connections with automatic speed detection. You have the latest technology available to every computer and device connected to your network, ensuring maximum performance for file transfers, video streaming, and bandwidth-intensive applications.
Advanced Network Management Features
The DGS-1024D incorporates several advanced features to help simplify and improve network management and efficiency:
-
IEEE 802.3x Flow Control: Maintains reliable connections during heavy usage periods by reducing packet loss and wasteful data re-transmission
-
Storm Control & Port Isolation: Mitigates the effects of broadcast storms caused by rogue software and malware
-
Auto MDI/MDIX Crossover: Eliminates the need for crossover cables, any port can connect to servers, hubs, or switches with standard straight-through cables
-
802.1p QoS (4 Queues): Prioritises network traffic for optimal performance
-
Jumbo Frame Support: Supports up to 9600 Byte jumbo frames for improved data transfer efficiency
Energy-Saving Green Technology
The DGS-1024D helps you conserve energy automatically through several intelligent methods. Link status detection automatically powers down ports that have no link, allowing the switch to save substantial amounts of power by cutting power usage for unused ports or any ports connected to computers that have been shut down. The switch can also detect connected cable lengths and adjusts power usage accordingly, helping you save energy without affecting networking performance. Energy-Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az EEE) conserves energy by dynamically reducing power consumption when data activity is low. These green features combined provide more energy savings and a longer product life, without sacrificing operational performance or functionality.
Silent, Compact, and Versatile Design
The DGS-1024D features a durable, compact metal case alongside a fanless design allowing for improved heat dissipation while maintaining completely silent operation. The switch is small, lightweight, and wall-mountable or rackmountable (19-inch rack compatible), making it ideal for any business with demanding requirements and a small budget. Whether you need desktop placement or professional rack installation, the DGS-1024D adapts to your environment.
Perfect for Australian Businesses and Home Networks
Ideal for Australian small offices, home offices, retail stores, schools, and small-to-medium businesses looking to upgrade their network infrastructure with reliable, high-speed Gigabit connectivity. Connect workstations, file servers, NAS devices, wireless access points, IP security cameras, VoIP phones, and other network equipment with confidence. The universal 100-240V AC power supply ensures compatibility with Australian electrical systems.
