The D-Link DGS-1510 Series is the latest generation of Smart Managed switches with 10G capability available with 16 24 or 48 10/100/1000 Mbps ports plus additional fibre ports for physical stacking or uplinks. The PoE-capable DGS-1510-28P and DGS-1510-28XMP switches provide additional flexibility for businesses looking to power IP phones wireless access points or IP cameras using existing network infrastructure. The combination of high bandwidth connections and PoE support make the DGS-1510 Series ideal for Small-Medium Enterprise (SME) and Small-Medium Business (SMB) environments.

10G SFP+ Stacking/Uplink Ports

The last two SFP+ ports of the DGS-1510 Series switches allow users to create a physical stack of up to 6 units in a fault-tolerant ring or linear topology using Direct Attach Cables (DACs) or any compatible SFP+ transceiver¹. This creates a total of 288 Gigabit ports ensuring high bandwidth while staying cost-efficient. Meanwhile the remaining uplink ports can be used for other functions such as connecting to a larger network. Users can also easily configure and manage any of the DGS-1510 Series Smart Managed switches in a single stack. With 20 Gbps full-duplex capabilities the DGS-1510 Series offers 10G connectivity to core networks and servers while still maintaining fast data transfer rates.

Layer 3 Traffic Management

The DGS-1510 Series provides static routing allowing you to segment your network into workgroups that communicate between VLANs and increase application performance. With these capabilities you can reduce the load on your core devices allowing you to create a scalable and efficient network.

Extensive Layer 2 Features

The DGS-1510 Series switches are equipped with a complete line-up of Layer 2 features including IGMP Snooping Port Mirroring Spanning Tree and Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP). The IEEE 802.3x Flow Control function allows servers to directly connect to the switch for fast reliable data transfer. Network maintenance features include Loopback Detection and Cable Diagnostics. Loopback Detection automatically detects and shuts down loops created by a specific port or VLAN. The Cable Diagnostics feature designed primarily for administrators and customer service representatives can determine cable quality and can quickly discover sections of cabling that need to be replaced.
