D-Link DGS-1510-28P 28-Port Gigabit PoE+ Stackable Smart Managed Switch with 10G Uplinks

Power the Access Network and Manage Its Traffic The D-Link DGS-1510-28P brings 24 Gigabit RJ45 PoE+ ports plus 2 Gigabit SFP ports and 2 10G SFP+ ports together in a managed rackmount switch. It suits an office or workgroup that needs organised wired connectivity, with faster optical uplinks for supported connections to servers, storage or the wider network. A 193W standard PoE budget supplies compatible access points, cameras and IP phones from the Ethernet ports. VLANs, traffic priorities and static routing help keep different workloads organised, while physical stacking provides a defined expansion path.

The dedicated Gigabit SFP slots are separate from the 2 10G SFP+ slots, so choose a module for the correct interface. Suitable optical modules or direct-attach cables are required separately; the complete link depends on compatible equipment at both ends. Plan Power for the Connected Devices IEEE 802.3af/at supports compatible powered devices at up to 30W per copper port, within the 193W shared standard budget. Add the actual requirements of all connected devices rather than multiplying the maximum port rating by the port count. Scheduled PoE and PD-Alive functions can assist an appropriate deployment. Separate Users and Applications With VLANs Tagged VLANs, voice VLAN and surveillance VLAN features help organise staff, phones, cameras and other network traffic. Traffic separation must be designed across the relevant switch ports, uplinks and routing equipment. VLAN configuration is part of a network policy, not a substitute for firewall rules or appropriate authentication. Use Static Routing Where It Fits the Design IPv4 and IPv6 static routing can move traffic between configured IP networks without sending every inter-VLAN exchange to a separate router. The switch supports a defined set of static routes and IP interfaces. It is not a full-featured Internet security gateway, and a design needing dynamic routing or firewall inspection requires equipment with those specific capabilities. Build a Compatible Physical Stack Up to six compatible switches can form a physical stack using the designated SFP+ stacking ports and suitable connections. The published full-duplex stacking bandwidth is up to 40Gbps. Stacking uses ports that would otherwise serve as uplinks, and a linear configuration can also reserve an unused partner stacking port. Single IP Management for up to 32 devices is a separate management feature, not a 32-unit physical stack. Keep Configuration and Fault-Finding Accessible Browser management, a command-line interface, console access and SNMP provide several administration routes. Cable diagnostics, sFlow, logs and port mirroring assist fault investigation, while spanning-tree protocols, loop detection and link aggregation support a planned network. Keep the installed firmware, saved configuration and access policy aligned with the deployment, and allow ventilation around the rack-mounted enclosure. Summary The D-Link DGS-1510-28P suits a managed 24-port Gigabit access network that needs 2 Gigabit SFP ports and 2 10G SFP+ ports, VLANs and static routing. Its 193W standard PoE budget supports a carefully sized collection of compatible powered devices. Choose suitable optics or DAC cables, account for the ports used by stacking and size the rack, power and cooling for the installation. Frequently Asked Questions Which Data Ports Are Provided?ExpandCollapse It provides 24 Gigabit RJ45 PoE+ ports plus 2 Gigabit SFP ports and 2 10G SFP+ ports. The console interface is for administration and is not an extra Ethernet data uplink. Does It Supply Power over Ethernet?ExpandCollapse Yes. The 24 copper ports support IEEE 802.3af/at at up to 30W per port within a shared 193W standard budget. Not every port can deliver its maximum rating simultaneously unless the total power requirement fits the available budget. Can I Stack Several Switches?ExpandCollapse Up to six compatible units can form a physical stack using the designated SFP+ ports and suitable cables or modules. The published stacking bandwidth is up to 40Gbps full duplex. Ports assigned to stacking cannot also be used as ordinary uplinks; Single IP Management of up to 32 devices is a different feature. Are Optical Modules and DAC Cables Included?ExpandCollapse Optical modules and direct-attach cables are separate choices. Match the interface, supported module or cable, fibre type, connector and required distance to the equipment at both ends. Do not assume a populated optical uplink from an empty SFP or SFP+ slot. Can It Replace a Router or Firewall?ExpandCollapse It supports IPv4 and IPv6 static routing between configured networks. It is not a substitute for every router function, dynamic-routing protocol or Internet firewall. Choose the network edge and security equipment according to the actual connection and policy requirements. How Should I Plan the Rack and Power?ExpandCollapse Allow a 1U mounting position, suitable brackets and clear ventilation. The switch uses a 100–240V AC internal supply and 2 smart fans. Include the connected PoE loads when checking the power budget and UPS capacity. Its device weight is 2.54kg; shipping weight is a separate measurement. Read more
