The DXS-1100-10TS 10 Gigabit Ethernet EasySmart Switch is an EasySmart Layer 2 10 Gb Ethernet switch which provides an entry-level solution for Small and Medium Businesses wishing to deploy 10 Gb Ethernet. It is ideal for server farms or as a network aggregation device and provides a cost-effective but feature-rich solution to 10 Gb Ethernet requirements.

Energy Saving

The DXS-1100-10TS incorporates D-Link Green technology for increased energy efficiency. Smart fans and temperature sensors ensure that the fans are running at the optimum speed to cool the system. If the environment temperature is suitable and the switch is at low utilization, the smart fans can reduce their speed, resulting in lower power consumption and noise output. The Link Status feature can reduce power utilization by powering-down inactive ports and putting them into sleep mode. The DXS-1100-10TS also takes its Green credentials one step further by incorporating a chipset with advanced silicon technology for reduced power utilization.

Easy to Deploy

The DXS-1100-10TS supports an intuitive client-based D-Link Network Assistant Utility and a web-based management interface. The client-based utility allows customers to discover all switches in the D-Link Smart Switch family within the same L2 network segment. With this utility, users do not need to change the IP address of their PC, and this also makes initial setup of the Smart Switches quick and easy. Switches within the same L2 network segment that are connected to the user’s PC are displayed on-screen for instant access. This allows for extensive switch configuration and basic setup of discovered devices, including password changes and firmware upgrades. The graphic web-based management interface provides a user-friendly interface that enables network administrators to remotely control their network down to the port level.

Auto Surveillance VLAN and Bandwidth Control

The DXS-1100-10TS supports Auto Surveillance VLAN (ASV), and Auto Voice VLAN, which are best suited for Voice over IP (VoIP) and video surveillance deployments. Auto Surveillance VLAN is a new, industry-leading technology that the DXS-1100-10TS Gigabit Ethernet Smart Switch provides. This technology consolidates data and surveillance video transmission through a single unit, thus sparing businesses the expense of dedicated hardware and facilities. ASV also ensures the quality of real-time video for monitoring and control without compromising the transmission of conventional network data. The Auto Voice VLAN technology enhances VoIP functionality by automatically placing voice traffic from an IP phone into an assigned VLAN. With higher priority and individual VLAN, these features guarantee the quality and security of VoIP traffic across the network. In addition, Bandwidth Control can reserve bandwidth on a per port basis for important functions that require larger bandwidth or might have high priority.

Advanced Features

The DXS-1100-10TS 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.

Easy Troubleshooting

The DXS-1100-10TS features Loopback Detection and Cable Diagnostics to help network administrators find and solve network problems quickly and easily. Loopback Detection is used to detect loops created by a specific port and automatically shuts down the affected port. Cable Diagnostics help network administrators quickly examine the quality of the copper cables, recognize the cable type, and detect cable errors.
