Product Description
DES-1226G
24-Port 10/100Mbps Smart Switch
With 2 Combo Copper Gigabit/SFP (Mini GBIC)
The DES-1226G Smart Switch presents a cost-effective solution for the small and medium business to implement Ethernet packet switching with easy fine-tuning of network performance and security. This switch comes with 24 10/100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet ports and 2 combo 1000BASE-T/SFP (Mini GBIC) ports for flexible copper/fiber Gigabit connection. Port trunks are provided for server deployment and network backbone attachment, while functions important for bandwidth-intensive applications such as Priority Queues and VLANs are supported to enable you to implement Quality of Service (QoS) and security without having to go through complex network management usually found in other managed switches.
24 10/100Mbps Ports for Workstations Connection
The switch provides 24 10/100Mbps ports supporting auto sensing and auto-negotiation of network speeds and full/half duplex. These ports can connect to workstations and print servers, giving each a dedicated bandwidth. All ports support auto MDI/MDIX cross-over, allowing you to connect to any node without the need to change your usual straight-through twisted-pair cables.
2 Combo 1000BASE-T/SFP for Flexible Gigabit Connection
2 combo 1000BASE-T/SFP (Mini GBIC) are provided for flexible copper or fiber Gigabit connection. You can select to install optional transceivers in the SFP slots for short, medium or long-distance fiber backbone attachment. Use of the SFP will disable their corresponding built-in 1000BASE-T connections.
Port Trunks for Aggregated Bandwidths
Ports can be combined together to create multi-link load sharing aggregated bandwidths to a server or a network backbone. To expand the network, you can also make use of the port trunks to eliminate bottlenecks between the cascaded switches. The switch allows you to combine between 2 and 4 ports per trunk, and to create up to 2 groups of port trunks per switch.
VLANs for Enhanced Security & Performance
The switch support VLANs to let you improve security and bandwidth utilization by limiting the broadcast domains and confining intra-group traffic within their segments. To segment up the network, VLAN-supported workstations and servers that are connected to the switch can be grouped into different Virtual LANs (VLANs).
Quality of Service Support
The switch supports Layer 2 802.1p Priority Queue control to prioritize network packets. Classification of users data priorities can be based on a data packet Priority Queue. This QoS function support allows you to run bandwidth-intensive and delay-sensitive applications and to attach video servers to the switch for video conference.
