wired Gigabit speed access for campus and metro networks. The 1U high DGS-3000-10TC can be installed almost anywhere, including desktops, equipment racks, and telecom cabinets. The smaller dimensions provide better air flow in limited spaces and also make cable management easier.



Reliable Networking


All Ethernet ports of the DGS-3000-10TC support 6kV surge/lightning protection. This feature protects the switch from power surges due to lightning or improper electrical wiring when the Ethernet cables are exposed in open spaces, such as in older buildings. The switch also provides an additional power connector for connection to D-Link???s DPS-200 Redundant Power Supply, or to a stable, protected 12VDC backup power source in case of a main power failure. For Ethernet link fail-over, the DGS-3000-10TC supports 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), and 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), to allow automatic backup of bridge paths. Using these features, the transmission and reception of frames can be guaranteed even during a network failure. For mission critical environments, the switch also supports ITU-T G.8032 Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS); traffic can be rerouted around the ring within 50 milliseconds, minimizing disruption to service. D-Link Loopback Detection (LBD) is a loop detection function that prevents loop events from causing congestion in uncontrolled network segments such as unmanaged switches or customer networks. The DGS-3000-10TC also supports 802.1AX and 802.3ad Link Aggregation, which allow grouping of multiple ports in parallel to increase bandwidth and redundancy for high availability and load sharing in a multi-client environment.
