The DGS-1510 series is the next generation of Smart Pro switch. The DGS-1510-20 contains 16 10/100/1000 Mbps ports plus 2 Gigabit SFP ports & 2 10G SFP+ ports. With its 10G SFP+ ports, the DGS-1510 series is ideal for deployments in the SME/SMB core with its 10G uplinks connecting with servers equipped with 10G port connectivity. For medium to large scale enterprise deployment, it can serve as a good interconnection between the core switch & edge switch. Featuring D-Link Green 3.0 technology, the DGS-1510 series offers a high level of energy saving & efficiency, as it also complies with the IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet standard. Support for IPv 6 management & configurations ensures your network remains protected after the upgrade from IPv 4 to IPv 6. By offering multiple management options, the DGS-1510 Series allows quick deployment, infrastructure expansion, & seamless function upgrades. Built for small & medium-sized businesses, the DGS-1510 Series provide functionality, security, & manageability for a fraction of the standard cost of ownership. Depending on whether linear or fault-tolerant ring stacking is implemented, users can use one or two 10-Gigabit SFP+ ports to create a physical stack. 6 units or 288 Gigabit ports can be configured for a stack using optional direct attach cables to provide high bandwidth on the DGS-1510 Series with cost efficiency. Users can mix any models from the DGS-1510 Smart Pro series in a single stack to allow simultaneous & easy configuration, management & troubleshooting. DGS-1510 series supports virtual stacking via D-Link's Single IP Management (SIM), allowing up to 32 devices to be managed via a single IP. This simplifies management of small workgroups or wiring closets while allowing the network to be scaled to handle increased bandwidth dem&. SIM not only reduces the number of IP address needed in your network but also allow switches to be stacked together over Ethernet instead of usi
