Description
The DGS-1210ME Series Metro Ethernet Switches are a range of switches designed for
Metro Ethernet applications. They feature a variety of port configurations, including
10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports, 1G SFP ports, and 10G SFP+ ports for increased network
bandwidth. Surge protection, advanced Layer 2 functions, and a suite of security and
management tools make the DGS-1210ME Series Metro Ethernet Switches ideal for Metro
Ethernet applications.
Multi-Gigabit Performance
The DGS-1210ME Series Metro Ethernet Switches come in a variety of port setups, including
Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45, 1G Ethernet SFP ports, or 10G SFP+ ports. All models offer a minimum
of at least two 1G Ethernet SFP ports, excluding the DGS-1210-12TS/ME which offers ten 1G SFP
ports and two 10/100/1000BASE-T ports. The DGS-1210-28X/ME and DGS-1210-28XS/ME offer
four 10G SFP+ ports for improved uplink bandwidth. The DGS-1210-10P/ME, DGS-1210-28P/
ME, DGS-1210-28MP/ME, DGS-1210-52P/ME, DGS-1210-52MP/ME and DGS-1210-52MPP/ME
switches feature Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing compatible devices to be installed and
powered in remote locations without immediate access to power outlets.
Efficient and Resilient
For mission critical environments, the DGS-1210ME Series Metro Ethernet Switches support
IEEE 802.1D 2004 edition, 802.1w, and 802.1s Spanning Tree Protocols (STP). The Spanning
Tree Protocol allows the switches to participate in Spanning Tree topology, providing an
alternative Layer 2 path in the event of a network failover. The switches also support IEEE
802.3ad link aggregation, which enables multiple ports to be grouped to form a single virtual
port, increasing bandwidth and redundancy for higher availability. This series furthermore
features IEEE 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS), allowing for real-time traffic classification into
Weighted Round Robin (WRR) and strict priority levels mapped to 8 queues. Advanced traffic
classification parameters allow the network to be tuned for flexible configurations for specific
multimedia applications such as VoIP or IPTV.
Security & Authentication
The DGS-1210ME Series supports IEEE 802.1X port-based/host-based access
control, guest VLAN, and RADIUS/TACACS+ authentication for strict access
control to the network. The IP-MAC-Port Binding (IMPB) feature allows
administrators to associate a source IP address with a designated MAC
address and also offers the flexibility to define the port number to enhance
user access control. The built-in D-Link Safeguard Engine™ protects the CPU
from broadcast, multicast, and unicast flooding by automatically trapping
packets and logging events in these situations. In addition, the Access Control
List (ACL) feature enhances network security and switch performance.
Management Capabilities
A user-friendly web interface gives administrators access to advanced
management features such as DHCP auto-configuration. This enables
switches to load their configuration from a TFTP server once they have
been assigned an IP address, allowing central management of device
configurations. The switches support Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP),
which advertises the device’s capabilities and identity to the local network,
allowing administrators to better manage their network topology. Each port
also supports cable diagnostics, which can be used to troubleshoot cable
length and functionality problems remotely, resulting in lower management
overheads.
