SWITCHES

Wired networks offer quick communication channels between users, computers and network devices through switch connection withinlocal area network. Products under this category include chassis,core, edge, secure switches, managed, Web Smart and unmanaged switches, transceivers, converters and adapters.

Unmanaged

-Simplest way to build a network and let it run itself

-Plug-and-play connectivity for small businesses

-Ideal for small networks that are sharing resources

-Green Ethernet

Smart

-Many of the benefits of managed, as outlined below, but without the complexity or cost

-Ease of configuration through web-management

-Ideal for users wishing to build small to medium size networks but who don’t need the advanced features necessary for corporate deployments

Managed

-Allows administrators to monitor traffic across the network, introduce redundancy and control access

-Found in networks with numerous users and applications, where performance and reliability must be maximized and security enforced

-Ideal for large sites where server farms are deployed, with hundreds of users sharing multiple printers and applications and routinely using wireless access and video-conferencing, such as in corporate headquarters

-Includes D-Link’s industry leading selection of xStack switches

Unified Wireless

-Managed switches which offer flexible deployment, one single device can manage both wired and wireless access traffic – unified switch = wireless controller + LAN switch

-Feature-rich centralized management for wireless Access Points (AP) and clients, including security policy and RF parameters

-Enables seamless wireless roaming without the need for cursor re-authentication: necessary in particular for Voice-over-WLAN (VoWLAN) applications

-Compared to previous generation wireless solutions (mobile controller), unified switching platforms offer a strong depth of features including incomplete wired switching functions and enough physical connections to be located at the ‘edge’ of the network

xStack

-High port-density Layer 3 stackable switches

-Combine the ultimate performance with fault tolerance, security, management functions with flexibility and ease-of-use

-Equipped with 2 stacking ports providing 20Gbps full duplex bandwidth

-Provides the 10G uplinks for transmission at 10 times the speed of a Gigabit port

-Flexible and Scalable - Whether you need to bring Gigabit or just conventional 10/100Mbps speed to your organization's desktops, D-Link xStack has the right solution with right port types,port densities and uplinks to match your requirements

DES-7200 specifications

The D-Link DES-7200 is a versatile, high-performance Ethernet switch designed for enterprise networks that require efficient data management and enhanced connectivity. This switch is manufactured to meet the demands of modern networking environments, offering a combination of scalability, reliability, and advanced features.

One of the key features of the DES-7200 is its support for 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet speeds, allowing it to easily handle high-bandwidth applications and large-scale data traffic. Its switching capacity, which can support a substantial number of simultaneous connections, ensures that the switch can keep up with the increasing demands of users and devices within a network.

The DES-7200 incorporates advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching capabilities, making it suitable for a wide range of networking scenarios. This includes support for Virtual LANs (VLANs) which allow network administrators to segment networks for improved performance and security. The switch supports up to 4,096 VLANs, enabling efficient traffic management and isolation of sensitive data.

Another notable feature of the DES-7200 is its robust security protocols. It includes IEEE 802.1X port-based authentication, ensuring that only authorized users can access the network. Additionally, it supports Access Control Lists (ACLs) and Denial of Service (DoS) attack prevention measures, further enhancing network security.

D-Link has also integrated quality of service (QoS) functionality into the DES-7200, allowing for better handling of voice, video, and mission-critical data applications. With the ability to prioritize traffic, administrators can ensure a seamless and uninterrupted user experience, minimizing latency and congestion in busy network environments.

The DES-7200 features a user-friendly web-based interface for easy management and monitoring of the switch. This interface allows network administrators to configure settings, monitor performance, and troubleshoot issues quickly and efficiently.

Scalability is another significant characteristic of the D-Link DES-7200. It offers stacking capabilities, which means multiple switches can be managed as a single unit, simplifying network management and expanding network capacity without requiring excessive configuration.

Overall, the D-Link DES-7200 is a reliable choice for organizations looking to enhance their network infrastructure. With its combination of speed, security, and management capabilities, it stands as a robust solution for both small and large-scale enterprise networks.
