The DES-1210 Series is the latest generation of Smart Switches. Equipped  24 10/100Mbps ports, two 10/100/1000BASE-T ports,
and two combo 10/100/1000BASE-T/SFP ports, this series offers all the features needed in a small and medium business, without the complexity or cost involved. The built-in web interface and PC based SmartConsole Utility make these switches easy to deploy, configure and troubleshoot. Its complete set of features allows for seamless integration in every environment.

The DES-1210-28P is built with 10/100 Mbps ports that are PoE-enabled, offering ease-of-use and green features like Time-based PoE and Smart Fan. Time-based PoE can shut off PoE power at a predetermined time, and the Smart Fan feature allows the built-in fans to automatically turn on at a certain temperature, providing continuous, reliable, and eco-friendly operation of the switch. Compliant with 802.3af and 802.3at, the DES-1210- 28P is capable of feeding power of up to 30 watts to devices. While easy to use, the DES-1210 Series provides a complete and affordable solution for small and medium businesses. Management options for the switches include SNMP, Web Management, SmartConsole Utility, and compact Command Lines. The series also supports ACL filtering and the D-Link Safeguard Engine™. Furthermore, the DES-1210 Series uses Auto Voice VLAN, ensuring higher priority for voice traffic.

Extensive set of Features

Equipped with a complete line-up of features, these switches include Quality of Service, Port Trunking, Spanning Tree and IGMP snooping. Network monitoring and maintenance features include Port Mirroring, Loopback Detection and the innovative Cable Diagnostics. With Cable diagnostics, the switch will flag a faulty Ethernet cable connected to any of its ports, detailing the type of error detected.

Ready for network convergence

These switches are ideal for converged networks, where IP telephony, traditional LAN and Surveillance systems are integrated in the data flow. The Auto Voice and Auto Surveillance2 VLAN features will automatically place these types of traffic on separate VLANs, thus guaranteeing the confidentiality, prioritization and quality of these services on the network.

Secure Your Network

The DES-1210 series support RADIUS authentication, to ensure that only authorized users are able to log into the network. In addition, the Access Control List (ACL) feature further enhances security by ensuring that network resources are accessible only by their legitimate users. In addition, the DES-1210 Series protects against the most widespread network attacks, such as ARP spoofing or rogue DHCP servers2.

Avoid Network Disruption

D-Link’s innovative Safeguard Engine protects against traffic flooding caused by broadcast storms or virus attacks, blocking traffic that reaches the definable threshold and avoiding network lock-ups before they occur. Spanning Tree (STP) and Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP) allow for redundant paths in a network to ensure servers and other resources are always available.

Versatile Management

The new generation of Smart switches is provided with an intuitive PC-based SmartConsole utility and a friendly web interface that enables administrators to configure and control their network down to the port level. The SmartConsole automatically discovers multiple D-Link Web Smart Switches within the same network segment, so administrators can access all of them even before they have been configured. This allows for very quick deployments and initial setups, including firmware upgrades. For more advanced administrators, the DES-1210 series supports a Command Line Interface (CLI) accessible with Telnet.

In addition, the DES-1210 series is SNMP compatible so they can be monitored and managed from any SNMP application such as D-Link’s D-View 6.0. A 30-day evaluation copy is included with every switch or available to download from our website.
