DXS-3227P Layer 2+ Stackable Gigabit Wireless-Ready Switch with PoE
L2+ 24-Port Gigabit PoE Switch with 10 Gigabit Uplinks
Overview
D-Link's xStack 3200 Series switches are designed to
provide effortless wireless technology convergence with
traditional Layer 2 data access switching, emphasizing
on security, performance, and resiliency. Featuring the
latest stacking technology from D-Link, the xStack
DXS-3227P can stack up to 16 units*, providing up to 400
Gigabit ports. It can stack with other D-Link switches
such as the DXS/DWS-3250, DXS/DWS-3227, and
DXS/DWS-3227P, providing extraordinary fl exibility.
It provides 24 built-in copper Gigabit ports, including
4 combo SFP ports for easy, flexible connection
to fiber-based Gigabit media. The DXS-3227P is
also equipped with 2 module slots that support 10
Gigabit Ethernet for both copper CX-4 and fi ber XFP
connections, as well as 1 fi xed 10GbE XFP port. When
stacking through CX-4 interfaces, a stacking bandwidth
of 48Gbps can be achieved, for a total switching fabric
capacity of up to 120Gbps. In addition, the DXS-3227P
also supports IP static routing, 4000 VLANs, up to 64
trunk groups, and is 'wireless-ready', providing wireless
roaming, centralized AP management, and rogue AP
detection in a single switching solution.
Unifi ed Wired/Wireless Ready
In a mixed network of wired and wireless environments,
predictable coverage and security become paramount.
The need for a switching solution capable of addressing
these needs in both the wired and wireless environment
becomes key. The DXS-3227P is capable of meeting
this demand and more. With a simple optional fi rmware
upgrade, the DXS-3227P transforms from a standard Layer
2 switch into an integrated wired and wireless switching
solution capable of providing powerful wireless security,
easy deployment, the ability to detect rogue access
points, and centralized management for all compatible
WLAN components. Centralized management is crucial
for wireless technologies deployed in real-time inventory,
data mining, and an array of personal electronics that
demand mobility and seamless integration such as
* Future release
PDA and 3G/VoIP mobile phones. With an optional
software upgrade, the DXS-3227P becomes a wireless
switch providing secure, seamless roaming between
access points ensuring clear, uninterrupted data and
voice communication throughout your wireless network
infrastructure.
DNA Stacking Architecture
Distributed Networking Architecture (DNA) is a
combination of hardware and software that is embedded
in D-Link's latest 3200 Series of xStack switches. Switches
built with DNA are easily stackable with little or no system
downtime for expansion. For example, the DXS-3200
Series switches are self-healing by quickly discovering
failures in the stack and re-routing traffi c to automatically
avoid the failed device and discover the new topology.
The fl exibility of DNA lets network designers choose the
right topology for connecting their devices whether it be
through a 10 GbE interface or using a 1000Base-X port to
connect between wiring closets. The DXS-3200 Series
switches can be used in a number of topologies such as
ring or chain stacking. When changes are made to the
stack, DNA automatically discovers the new topology and
reconfi gures the system to accommodate the changes.
In the unlikely event of equipment failure, the switches
rapidly reconfi gure the stack to avoid the failed switch,
resulting in extremely fast failover times and little to
no downtime. In addition, the DXS-3200 Series allows
the network administrator to maintain transparency of
system features such as Port Mirroring, VLANs, and
Link Aggregation across the stack. Unlike other stacking
solutions, this feature allows an administrator to add and
remove ports from VLANs without having to confi gure the
VLAN on each switch and without the added hassle of
creating VLAN trunks between devices. This also allows,
through the use of port mirroring, the ability to monitor any
port throughout the stack without having to be physically
connected to the same device. This fl exibility allows for
better troubleshooting, faster confi guration, and a lower
risk of confi guration errors.
