D-Link DGS-1210-28MP

Overview

The D-Link DGS-1210-28MP is a 28-port Gigabit Ethernet switch designed to deliver both high-speed data connectivity and Power over Ethernet (PoE) in a single rackmount unit. With 24 PoE+ ports sharing a 370 W power budget and four SFP slots for fiber uplinks, it supports powering devices like IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points while maintaining smooth network traffic with a 56 Gbps switching capacity. This switch is well suited for small to medium-sized offices, retail environments, and branch campuses that require efficient network management and simplified cabling.

Key features

• 24 PoE+ ports provide power and data over a single cable, reducing the need for separate power supplies for network devices.
• Four SFP slots offer flexible fiber uplink options for long-distance connections to server rooms or other network segments.
• Auto Surveillance VLAN and Voice VLAN automatically segment camera and VoIP traffic, ensuring consistent video and call quality without manual configuration.
• Layer 2 features like VLAN segmentation, Quality of Service (QoS), and IGMP snooping help organize network traffic, prioritize critical applications, and minimize multicast flooding.
• 802.1X port authentication and Access Control Lists enhance network security by restricting unauthorized access to the switch ports.
• Intuitive web interface allows easy configuration, monitoring of PoE budgets, and review of port statistics from any standard browser.
• Compact 1U rackmount design fits standard 19-inch racks, making installation straightforward in existing network setups.

Connectivity and compatibility

This switch supports a wide range of network devices through its 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports, which can power IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points directly. The four SFP slots accept fiber transceivers, enabling uplinks over longer distances or connections to other network segments. Its compatibility with standard Ethernet and PoE+ protocols ensures seamless integration into existing network infrastructures.

Performance and reliability

With a switching capacity of 56 Gbps, the switch handles heavy network traffic without bottlenecks, maintaining smooth data flow even during peak usage. Features like VLAN segmentation and QoS prioritize important traffic, while IGMP snooping reduces unnecessary multicast traffic. The robust PoE power budget supports multiple powered devices simultaneously, making it reliable for demanding office or retail environments.

Installation and setup

The DGS-1210-28MP fits into a standard 19-inch rack with its 1U form factor, simplifying physical installation. Its web-based management interface provides an accessible way to configure network settings, monitor power usage, and check port status without requiring specialized software. This ease of setup helps IT administrators deploy and maintain the switch efficiently.

Ideal uses and environments

This switch is a strong choice for small to medium-sized businesses that need to power and connect multiple network devices while keeping cabling and management straightforward. It works well in office environments with VoIP phones, retail stores with IP surveillance cameras, and branch campuses requiring reliable uplinks to central servers. Its security features also make it suitable for environments where controlled network access is important.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
