DGS-1100-08PLV2 – Smart Managed Switch

The DGS-1100-08PLV2 switch is designed to meet the requirements of small, medium, and enterprise businesses. PoE support makes the DGS-1100-08PLV2 ideal for IP surveillance deployments. Advanced management features, a range of diagnostic and troubleshooting tools, and energy efficient technologies provide a flexible solution to meet your networking requirements.

Compliant with IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet, this switch consumes less energy by cutting down on power consumption when port utilization is low. By deploying compatible devices, users can cut operating costs and even cut down on necessary cooling equipment, helping small and medium-sized businesses stay within their budgets. The DGS-1100-08PLV2 also features D-Link Green Technology that helps to save energy automatically. The switch monitors the link status of every port and significantly reduces power consumption of the interface when there is no link or network traffic detected.

DGS-1100-08PLV2 switch supports D-Link Network Assistant (DNA) and a web-based management interface. The client-based D-Link Network Assistant (DNA) discovers all D-Link Smart Managed Switches within the same L2 network segment, making the initial setup quick and easy. This allows extensive switch configuration and basic administration of discovered devices, including password changes and firmware upgrades. The web-based interface provides a user-friendly way for network administrators to manage the switch down

to the port level. The interface can be accessed from a web browser, allowing the switches to be controlled from any PC that is connected to the network.

The DGS-1100-08PLV2 supports Surveillance VLAN for IP surveillance deployments. This gives video traffic a dedicated VLAN and higher priority through the switch, separating surveillance traffic from the rest of the network. This ensures security and guarantees the quality of the video traffic, sparing businesses the added cost of dedicated surveillance hardware. Bandwidth Control can reserve bandwidth on a per-port basis for important functions that require larger bandwidth or have higher priority.

The DGS-1100-08PLV2 features Loopback Detection and Cable Diagnostics to help network administrators to find and solve network problems quickly and easily. Loopback Detection is used to detect loops created by a specific port and automatically shut down the affected port. The Cable Diagnostics feature is designed for network administrators to quickly examine the quality of the copper cables, recognize the cable type, and detect cable errors.

The DGS-1100-08PLV2 is equipped with advanced security features such as Static MAC, Storm Control, and IGMP Snooping. Static MAC allows users to create a MAC whitelist for specific ports, helping administrators limit network access to authorized devices only. Storm Control monitors broadcast, multicast, or unknown unicast traffic and will start blocking or discarding packets which could flood the network when the defined threshold is exceeded. IGMP Snooping is able to reduce the loading of L3 multicast routers and save bandwidth in network throughput.

The DGS-1100-08PLV2 provides Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, reducing deployment time for IP cameras, VoIP phones, and access points. Dedicated power adapters are no longer required, as the DGS-1100-08PLV2 complies with IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at PoE standards and provide up to 30 watts per port.
