D-Link DGS-1520-28MP 28 Port Layer 3 Stackable Smart Managed PoE Switch

Smart Managed Switches, Redefined

The DGS-1520 Series, a new generation of Lite Layer 3 Stackable Smart Managed Switches, includes four 10 GB ports for uplink or stacking up to a total of eight switches with a total of 80 Gigabit stacking bandwidth. Designed for effortless multi-site network deployments with Zero Touch Provisioning, the DGS-1520 Series is also powerful enough for server and storage applications. For unrestricted Wi-Fi 6 edge device capabilities, PoE models offer four 2.5 GB Base-T ports for Multi-Gigabit connectivity. For SMBs with expanding networks and significant bandwidth growth, the DGS-1520 effortlessly adds highly cost-effective 10 GB connectivity to ensure seamless aggregation between access and core layers.

High Availability

The DGS-1520 Series brings reliable, yet affordable, Gigabit connectivity with four 10-Gigabit ports (two 10G Base-T and two 10G SFP+) for high-speed uplink or stacking. Boost your network performance, simplify your network infrastructure, improve bandwidth and reduce cabling complexity.

Zero Touch Provisioning

For multi-site network expansion, the latest firmware and network configurations can be downloaded onto the DGS-1520 Series switches without the need for on-site IT personnel, for rapid and effortless deployment.

Multi-Gigabit Support

Multi-Gigabit ports on the DGS-1520 Series switch (PoE models only) support 100 MB / 1 GB / 2.5 GB speeds to maximize various device capabilities, such as Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) access points, which can often exceed single Gigabit speeds.

Advanced L2 and L3 Functionalities

Advanced software features such as selective Q-in-Q, VRRP, RIP and OSPF allows businesses to adapt to changes in their network. For those with expanding network requirements and bandwidth demands, the DGS-1520 Series is a highly cost-effective upgrade option to add 10 Gigabit connectivity to the network infrastructure.

Flexible Hybrid Stacking

Stack up to eight DGS-1520 switches using both copper 10GBASE-T and/or fibre SFP+ ports. The hybrid stacking support adds flexibility as well as lowering the cost of cabling by using copper instead of all fibre.

Minimize Outages with Power Redundancy

For a more resilient network infrastructure, connect up to four DGS-1520 switches (non-PoE models only) with the DPS-520 PoE redundant power supply system through the management port and actively back-up four devices to significantly reduce power redundancy costs.
Auto Discovery: Automatically detect power requirements of connected PD devices.
RPS Port Priority: Enables administrators to define RPS failover policy.
Status Reporting: Administrators can connect via web browser to remotely monitor DPS-520 status.

Low Network Latency, High PoE Budget

High Gigabit-port density with up to 188 GB total switching capacity, and up to 30 W per port with 370 W total PoE budget to power your PoE-enabled devices.

Simplified Management

Managed multiple large wired/wireless device networks with D-View 7 for centralised management to reduce costs and maintenance. D-Link Network Assistant (DNA) is also available to easily set up and manage smaller networks.
