. D-Link 16-port 10/100/1000 Easy Smart Switch D-Link's DGS-1100 Series is an addition to Easy Smart Switches featuring D-Link Green Technology. Compliant with IEEE802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet this switch consumes less power during idle periods. The DGS-1100 Series consists of 16 & 24 Gigabit port models & comes in a compact 11 desktop/rackmount enclosure. These switches also implement D-Link Green features that detect link status & cable length & adjust power usage accordingly. Switch management can be performed through a web management interface or through the Smart Console Utility. The DGS-1100 Series also supports features such as port VLANs Quality of Service (Qo S) &. IGMP snooping to optimize performance for multicast applications. Its fanless design allows for quieter operation & provides a longer product life. The DGS-1100 Series provides an affordable solution for Small & Medium Business without IT staff. They are also suitable for Enterprise deployment such as in branch offices & meeting rooms that require simple network management. The DGS-1100 Series supports Auto Surveillance VLAN (ASV) which is best suited for video surveillance deployment. Auto Surveillance VLAN is a new industry-leading technology incorporated into the D-Link Easy Smart Switch Series that consolidates data & surveillance video transmission through a single switch thus sparing businesses the expense of dedicated hardware & facilities. ASV also ensures the quality of real-time video for monitoring & control without compromising the transmission of conventional network data. In addition with Bandwidth Control network administrators can reserve bandwidth for important functions that require more bandwidth or might have high priority. Compliant with IEEE802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) these switches consume less energy by cutting down on power consumption when the traffic volume is low. This new standard allows for less power consumption during idle periods of low link use. By deploying EEE devices users can cut operating costs & even cut down on necessary cooling equipment helping small & medium sized businesses stay within their budgets. The DGS-1100 Series also features D-Link Green Technology. The switches automatically detect the length of connected cables & can adjust power usage for shorter cable connections of up to 20 meters saving energy automatically. Power saving by Link Status drastically reduces power consumption by automatically placing ports without a link in sleep mode. The DGS-1100 Easy Smart Switches support an intuitive Smart Console utility & a web-based management interface that enables administrators to remotely control their network down to the port level. The Smart Console allows customers to discover multiple D-Link Easy Smart Switches within the same network segment. With this utility users do not need to change the IP address of their PC to discover their Easy Smart switches & it also makes initial setup quick & easy. This allows for extensive switch configuration & basic setup of discovered devices including password changes & firmware upgrades. Network maintenance features include Loopback Detection & Cable Diagnostics. Loopback Detection is used to detect loops created by a specific port & automatically shuts down the affected port. Cable Diagnostics is designed for network administrators to quickly examine the quality of the copper cables & also determine the type of cable error. In addition Static MAC can disable Auto Learning on selected ports & set static MAC addresses to designated ports to extend security on the network...
