D-Link DES-1210-08P 8-Port PoE Smart Switch

Equipped with 8, 24 or 48 Fast Ethernet ports with Gigabit/combo port options, the DES-1210 Series Fast Ethernet Smart Managed Switches offer 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.

The DES-1210 Series is designed to provide SMB users with complete control over their network. With Ethernet and Gigabit copper ports capable of connecting to existing CAT5/5E/6 twisted-pair cables, these switches eliminate the need for expensive network re-building. The DES-1210 Series allows for flexible connections to a network backbone or server. Additionally, all ports support auto-negotiation of MDI/MDIX crossover, eliminating the need for crossover cables or uplink ports.

Equipped with a complete lineup of L2 features, these switches include IGMP Snooping, Port Mirroring, Spanning Tree, and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). IEEE 802.3x Flow Control allows servers to directly connect to the switch for reliable data transfer. Network maintenance features include Loopback Detection and Cable Diagnostics. Loopback Detection is used to detect loops created by a specific port and automatically shuts down the affected port. Cable Diagnostics allow network administrators to quickly examine the quality of the copper cables and also determine the type of cable error.
