DGS-1210 Series
Metro Ethernet Switches
Features The DGS-1210 Series Metro Ethernet Switches are a range of switches designed to provide
increased Power over Ethernet (PoE) output, a range of physical interface types, multiple
Flexible Hardware Design management interfaces, and advanced Layer 2 features. With all of these features combined,
• Available in multiple configurations: the DGS-1210 Series provides a cost-efficient and flexible solution for expanding any business
• Different combinations of 1000BASE-T, network.
100/1000 GbE/SFP combo, and 10/1000 SFP
• PoE and non-PoE variations Seamless Integration
• Designed for standard 1U rack-mounting
The DGS-1210 Series includes a wide range of port and media types, including
Layer 2 Features 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 ports, 100/1000 Mbps GbE/SFP combo ports, and 100/1000 Mbps
• 8K or 16K MAC address table SFP ports. The DGS-1210-10, DGS-1210-26, DGS-1210-10P and DGS-1210-10MP models feature
• IEEE 802.1D STP, 802.1w RSTP, and 802.1s MSTP 2 100/1000 Mbps SFP ports, while all other DGS-1210 Series models feature 2 or 4 GbE/SFP
• Loopback detection combo ports, allowing you to choose the most suitable media type for your requirements. All
• Supports IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation DGS-1210 Series PoE switches include support for IEEE 802.3af/at and higher power budgets,
• Port-based Q-in-Q allowing more PoE devices to be powered by the switch and for devices to be installed in
remote locations without immediate access to power outlets.
Security and Authentication
• Access Control Lists (ACLs) Advanced Features
• IP-MAC-Port Binding (IMPB)
The DGS-1210 Series comes equipped with a complete lineup of L2 features, including
• D-Link Safeguard Engine helps the CPU resist
broadcast/multicast/unicast flooding IGMP snooping, port mirroring, Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), and Link Aggregation Control
• Port Security Protocol (LACP). The IEEE 802.3x Flow Control function allows servers to directly connect to
the switch for fast, reliable data transfers. Network maintenance features include loopback
Intuitive Management detection and cable diagnostics. Loopback detection significantly speeds up troubleshooting
• D-Link Network Assistant (DNA) utility or by automatically detecting and shutting down switching loops. The cable diagnostics feature,
multilingual Web UI
designed primarily for administrators and customer service representatives, determines the

Efficient and Resilient Networking Advanced Access Control

The DGS-1210 Series supports up to 6 kV surge protection on all Ethernet D-Link’s innovative Safeguard Engine helps to protect the switches against
ports, protecting the switch from the damage caused by power surges due traffic flooding caused by malicious attacks. DGS-1210 Series supports
to lightning strikes or faulty electrical cabling. The switches also support 802.1X port-based authentication, allowing the clients to be authenticated
802.3ad Link Aggregation, which allows grouping of multiple ports to provide through external RADIUS servers. The Access Control List (ACL) feature helps
redundancy and load balancing in mission-critical environments. Combined, to enhance network security and helps to protect the internal IT network. To
the two features ensures the reliability of data transmission in your network. help prevent ARP spoofing attacks, the switch uses packet control ACLs to
block invalid packets that contain fake ARP messages.
