Advanced Layer 2 and Security Features
The DGS-1210-28 comes equipped with a comprehensive lineup of Layer 2 features including IGMP snooping, port mirroring, Spanning Tree Protocol (STP/RSTP), and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). The switch supports up to 16,000 MAC address entries and a 56 Gbit/s switching capacity for high-performance data transfers. Security is enhanced with D-Link Safeguard Engine protection against traffic flooding, 802.1X port-based authentication, Access Control Lists (ACLs), ARP Spoofing Prevention, and DHCP Server Screening to block rogue DHCP packets.
Flexible Management Options
Multiple management interfaces make deployment and configuration simple. Access the switch via an intuitive multi-language web-based GUI (supporting 10+ languages including English, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish), Compact CLI through Telnet, or SNMP v1/v2c/v3. The switch also supports D-Link Network Assistant (DNA) utility for discovering and managing multiple D-Link Smart Switches within the same network segment, and optional Nuclias Connect cloud management for centralized control of up to 1,500 devices.
Energy Efficiency and Cable Diagnostics
Reduce operational costs with D-Link Green 3.0 technology. The switch automatically adjusts power consumption based on link status and cable length, and supports advanced power-saving modes including port shutoff, LED shutoff, and system hibernation based on custom time profiles. Built-in cable diagnostics and loopback detection features help administrators quickly identify and resolve network issues, minimizing downtime.
Perfect for Surveillance and VoIP
The DGS-1210-28's Auto Surveillance VLAN technology is ideal for IP camera deployments, automatically consolidating data and surveillance video transmission through a single switch and ensuring quality real-time video without compromising conventional network traffic. Auto Voice VLAN detects VoIP devices and assigns them to a high-priority VLAN, guaranteeing call quality and security for business phone systems.
