D-Link DGS-1530-28P 28-Port Gigabit Stackable PoE+ Switch

A Stackable Foundation for Powered Business Networks Build a consistent access network around the DGS-1530-28P. Its 24 Gigabit PoE+ ports connect compatible access points, cameras and phones, while four 10GbE SFP+ uplinks give the network a capable connection to the core. Physical stacking brings up to 9 supported switches into one managed system. VLANs, local static routing and access policies help organise shared infrastructure, while the 370 W standard PoE budget keeps device-power planning explicit. The integrated power supply suits a straightforward single-power installation. Highlights Connectivity 24 Gigabit PoE+ access ports and 4 dedicated 10G SFP+ uplinks. 128 Gbps switching capacity; up to 95.24 Mpps forwarding. Physical stacking of up to 9 switches. Power and Control 370 W standard shared PoE budget; up to 30 W per access port. VLANs, IPv4/IPv6 static routing, ACLs and 802.1X. Web, CLI, SSH, SNMP and operational diagnostics. Key Features Gigabit Access With 10GbE Uplinks 24 Gigabit access ports connect powered business endpoints, while four dedicated 10G SFP+ ports provide high-speed uplinks. Match the optical module or direct-attach cable to the link distance and the device at the other end. The RJ 45 console is for administration, not an additional data port. Power Planned Around the Whole Installation All 24 copper access ports support 802.3af/at, up to 30 W per port. The standard shared PoE budget is 370 W. This model has no optional redundant-power connection; the standard budget remains 370 W. Per-port ratings do not mean every port can draw its maximum simultaneously. Expand as a Managed Physical Stack Connect up to 9 supported switches in a physical stack using compatible 10GbE links. Ring and chain topologies support planned expansion, with up to 80 Gbps stacking bandwidth per device when the required links are used. Stacking consumes uplink resources, so reserve ports and cabling in the design. Traffic Separation and Local Routing Up to 4,094 VLANs, IPv4/IPv6 static routing and eight QoS queues per port help organise traffic between users and services. Link aggregation and multicast snooping support shared uplinks and media applications. Static routing is a focused local-network feature, not a substitute for a security gateway. Resilience Beyond a Single Cable ERPS, spanning-tree protocols and link aggregation provide tools for redundant network paths.802.1ag CFM, 802.3ah Link OAM and Y.1731 support network diagnostics.6kV protection on Ethernet access ports complements a properly grounded installation; it does not remove the need for site-level surge protection. Control Access and Maintain Visibility 802.1X, RADIUS/TACACS+, ACLs, IP-MAC-Port binding and DHCP snooping help enforce network policy. Web GUI, CLI, SSH and SNMP provide administration choices, while sFlow, logs and Zero-Touch Provisioning support operations. Central management requires a currently compatible controller and firmware. Summary The D-Link DGS-1530-28P combines 24 Gigabit PoE+ access ports, four 10GbE uplinks and nine-unit physical stacking for a managed business network with a 370 W standard power budget. Frequently Asked Questions How Much PoE Power Is Available?ExpandCollapse The standard shared budget is 370 W, with up to 30 W on an individual 802.3at port. This model does not support an optional redundant power supply. Size the total load to the selected power arrangement. Can It Form a Physical Stack?ExpandCollapse Yes. Up to 9 compatible switches can form a ring or chain using 10GbE links, with up to 80 Gbps stacking bandwidth per device. Use supported cables or optics and reserve the required uplink ports for stacking. Are All Ports 10GbE?ExpandCollapse No. The 24 access ports are Gigabit Ethernet. Four dedicated SFP+ uplink ports support 10GbE. The console and USB interfaces are management connections, not additional network data ports. Does It Support Layer 3 Routing?ExpandCollapse It supports static IPv4/IPv6 routing with 64 IPv4 and 32 IPv6 static route entries and 64 IP interfaces. It is a stackable smart managed access switch, rather than a full dynamic-routing or firewall platform. Are SFP+ Modules and Stacking Cables Included?ExpandCollapse Choose the required compatible optics or direct-attach cables separately. The correct choice depends on distance, fibre type and the peer device. Rackmount brackets are included, while additional power expansion is separate where the exact model supports it. Can It Power a Business Access Point?ExpandCollapse Yes, when the access point accepts IEEE 802.3af/at and its maximum draw fits both the per-port limit and the remaining shared budget. An 802.3bt-only high-power AP needs a suitable alternative power source. Gigabit access ports also set the wired link-speed ceiling for the connected AP. Magbasa pa
