Switch Description
The DGS-1210/ME Metro Ethernet Switch is equipped with Copper ports (10/100/1000Mbps), SFP ports
(1000Mbps) and SFP+ ports (10G) that can be used to attach various networking devices to the network like
Computers, Notebooks, Print Servers, Network Attached Storage devices, IP Cameras, VoIP PBX devices,
and other Switches. The Small Form Factor Portable (SFP) ports can be used together with fiber-optical
transceivers in order to connect various other networking devices, using a fiber-optic connection, to the
network at Gigabit Ethernet speeds over great distances.
This DGS-1210/ME Metro Ethernet Switch provides unsurpassed performance, fault tolerance, scalability,
robust security, standard-based interoperability and impressive technology to future-proof departmental and
enterprise network deployments.
It allows IGMP Snooping and Authentication, QoS, Bandwidth Control, ACL and many security functions. It
can be managed by Web UI, or commands via Telnet.
The DGS-1210/ME Metro Ethernet Switches have different port configuration (10/100/1000Base-T or SFP
ports) that may be used in to uplink various network devices to the Switch, including PCs, hubs and other
switches to provide a gigabit Ethernet uplink in full-duplex mode. The SFP (Small Form Factor Portable)
ports are used with fiber-optical transceiver cabling in order to uplink various other networking devices for a
gigabit link that may span great distances.
