D-Link's DGS-1210 Series Gigabit Smart+ Switch with Fibre Uplinks 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 prioritized 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/52/52P feature a smart fan design that powers on after the switch reaches a certain temperature, saving energy and cutting costs without sacrificing performance. The design allows more flexibility in power allocation for a variety of powered devices with affordable installation costs. Equipped with a complete line-up of L2 features, the DGS-1210 Series includes IGMP snooping, port mirroring, spanning tree protocol 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. The DGS-1210 Series provides a D-Link Network Assistant Utility that enables administrators to remotely control their network down to the port level. The D-Link network assistant utility allows customers to easily discover multiple D-Link Web Smart Switches within the same L2 network segment. With this utility, users do not need to change the IP address of their PC. It also simplifies the initial setup by taking switches, within the same L2 network segment, that are connected to the user's PC, and displaying them on screen for instant access. This allows extensive switch configuration and basic setup of discovered devices, including password changes and firmware upgrades. The DGS-1210 Series also supports D-View 6.0 and Compact Command Line Interface (CLI) through Telnet. D-View 6.0 is a network management system that allows for the central management of critical network characteristics such as availability, reliability, resilience, and security. Incorporating D-Link Green technology, the DGS-1210 Series switches are capable of power-saving without sacrificing operational performance or functionality. Link status drastically reduces power consumption by automatically toggling ports without a link to sleep mode. The DGS-1210 Series takes the approach to green IT one step further by incorporating a special chipset with advanced silicon technology for efficient use of energy.
