The EasySmart DGS-1100-05V2, a configurable switch with 5 10/100/1000Base-T ports, is designed for use in small and medium business networks. Management, diagnostics and troubleshooting functions, as well as energy-saving technology allow you to use the DGS-1100-05V2 for a variety of tasks.
D-Link Green energy-saving technology Switch DGS-1100-05V2 complies with the standard IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet and consumes less power for a small amount of traffic. The use of EEE-compatible devices allows small and medium-sized businesses to save money by reducing operating costs, including those associated with the purchase of equipment for cooling. The DGS-1100-05V2 also supports D-Link Green technology, which automatically reduces power consumption. The switch detects the connection status of each port and automatically shuts down inactive ports.
Easy Management DGS-1100-05V2 supports management with a special utility D-Link Network Assistant, as well as via the Web-interface. The utility can detect D-Link Smart Series switches belonging to the same L2 network segment, which simplifies initial installation of the switch. Advanced configuration and basic configuration of discovered devices, such as password changes and software upgrades, are available to the administrator. A user-friendly Web-based interface gives network administrators the ability to manage the switch at the port level. The interface is accessible via a Web-browser and allows you to control the switch from any computer connected to the network.
Surveillance VLAN and bandwidth management DGS-1100-05V2 switch supports Surveillance VLAN technology for video surveillance deployments. This feature places video traffic on a separate VLAN where it is assigned the highest priority. Support for Surveillance VLANs ensures quality video traffic and protection, reducing the cost associated with purchasing additional hardware. Bandwidth management features allow network administrators to reserve bandwidth for applications that require the highest priority or high bandwidth.
Advanced feature set The DGS-1100-05V2 switch supports advanced security features such as Static MAC, network storm protection and IGMP Snooping. Static MAC function allows you to create a "white" list of MAC-addresses, allowing access only to authorized devices. The Network Storm Protection feature is required to limit broadcast, multicast or unknown unicast traffic to a specified threshold. The switch blocks or discards packets that fall under this restriction, as large amounts of such traffic can cause network congestion. The IGMP Snooping feature can reduce the amount of multicast traffic and increase network performance.
Easy troubleshooting The DGS-1100-05V2 supports cable diagnostic and Loopback Detection. Loopback Detection is used to detect loops and automatically shuts down the port where a loop has been detected. The Cable Diagnostics feature is used to determine the state of the twisted-pair cable and the type of cable fault.
