The DGS-3400 Gigabit Ethernet switches are members of the D-Link xStack
to core gigabit switches, the xStack
flexibility, port density, robust security and maximum throughput with a user-friendly management interface for the networking
professional.
This manual describes the installation, maintenance and configurations concerning members of the xStack
Series. These switches include: the DGS-3426, DGS-3426P, DGS-3427 and the DGS-3450. The xStack
switches are similar in configurations and basic hardware and consequentially, most of the information in this manual will be
universal to the whole xStack
of these switches but the configuration will be identical, except for varying port counts.
Switch Description
D-Link's next-generation xStack
performance with fault tolerance, security, management functions with flexibility and ease-of-use. All these features, typically
found in the more expensive chassis-based solutions, are available from the xStack
stackable switch!

All xStack DGS-3400 Series switches have some combination of 1000BASE-T ports, SFP ports and 10-Gigabit ports that may
be used in uplinking 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) combo 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. These SFP ports support full-
duplex transmissions, have auto-negotiation and can be used with DEM-310GT (1000BASE-LX), DEM-311GT (1000BASE-SX),
DEM-314GT (1000BASE-LH), DEM-312GT2 (100BASE-SX) and DEM-315GT (1000BASE-ZX) transceivers. Users may also
use one of the WDM Single Mode Transceivers, such as the DEM-330T/R or the DEM-331T/R. The rear panel of the xStack
DGS-3400 Switches Series includes spaces for optional single-port module inserts for single port 10GE XFP or 10GBASE-CX4
modules used for backbone uplink or stacking connection to another xStack
