24-port Managed L2 Switch with 2 open slots, Single IP Management

The DES-3026 switch is a high-performance managed Layer 2 switch that provides an ideal solution for workgroups and departments. This switch present a great entry-level managed solution for the SMB just starting out or the already established business looking to bring a managed solution to the desktops. This switch provides fiber uplinks for connection of small groups of users over a longer distance such as on a campus and between indoor departments or school classrooms.

High-performance L2 switching

With powerful switch fabric and abundant processing memory, the DES-3026 provides wire-speed high performance for departments and workgroups. This switch includes support for traffic segmentation that isolates ports to protect privacy. It allows you to migrate end users to an 802.1x environment when existing workstations support the 802.1x authentication protocol.

Investment protection

By supporting industry approved specifications, the DES-3026 leverages your existing investment in a multi-vendor environment, while maximizing compatibility of business with critical features like Spanning Tree (802.1D and 802.1w), QoS (802.1p), VLAN (802.1Q), port mirroring and network management. The switch provide robust support for standard-based management protocols such SNMP, RMON, BOOTP, Telnet and web-based management, enabling you to integrate them into many third-party network management packages.

Advanced enterprise features

The DES-3026 switch brings advanced enterprise functions to a more affordable level while supporting advanced features: 802.1p and portbased QoS/CoS, rich security and management features such as port-based/MAC-based 802.1x authentication and bandwidth control. The switch also support many of the features you would expect to see on a larger managed solution such as: IGMP snooping, 802.3ad Link Aggregation, 255 VLANs, traffic segmentation, traffic monitoring and SYSLOG.

Cost-effective virtual stack

With D-Link Single IP Management client support, the DES-3026 can be attached to a higher-level core switch such as a DES-6500 chassis or a D-Link xStack to form a virtual stack. The DES-3026 can form a workgroup or departmental stack providing 10/100Mbps speed with Gigabit uplinks to the core switch. The switch simplifies and speeds up your management tasks, as multiple switches can be configured, monitored and maintained from a management station through one unique IP address.
