D-Link DES-3200-18 Managed Switch, 18-Port Fast Ethernet with 2 Port Combo 1000BASE-T/SFP
D-Link DES-3200-18 - Description
Managed Switch, 18-Port Fast Ethernet with 2 Port Combo 1000BASE-T/SFP
High-Performance Managed Switch for Metro Ethernet:
D-Link DES-3200-18 is a Layer 2 Managed Switch designed specifically for Metro ETTX and FTTX networks. It features 16 Fast Ethernet ports and 2 combo Gigabit/SFP uplink ports, offering flexible deployment with copper or fiber connectivity. Compact in size with a fanless design, it’s ideal for desktop installations in ETTH environments. The combo ports support up to 4Gbps uplink bandwidth and enable advanced network topologies like Dual Ethernet Ring, making it a powerful and efficient solution for high-demand metro access networks.
Advanced Security Features for Network Protection:
Equipped with 802.1X Port and MAC-based Access Control, RADIUS, and TACACS+ authentication, the DES-3200-18 ensures secure access across the network. Features such as IP-MAC-Port Binding and DHCP Snooping enhance security by validating IP/MAC relationships, helping prevent unauthorized access. The built-in D-Link Safeguard Engine protects the CPU from malicious traffic, while Access Control Lists (ACLs) offer customizable filtering for enhanced control and protection of data streams.
Network Resilience and Performance Optimization:
The DES-3200-18 supports multiple spanning tree protocols including 802.1D, 802.1w, and 802.1s, allowing for network redundancy and faster recovery in failover scenarios. With Link Aggregation (802.3ad), administrators can increase bandwidth and build fault-tolerant links. The switch also supports 802.1p QoS, enabling traffic prioritization across 8 priority levels and 4 queues based on DSCP, TOS, MAC, IP, VLAN, and TCP/UDP criteria—ideal for VoIP and video streaming applications.
Comprehensive Traffic and Bandwidth Management:
The DES-3200-18 offers granular bandwidth control with 62.5 Kbps step adjustments for both ingress and egress traffic. Broadcast Storm Control, Port Mirroring, and Q-in-Q VLAN stacking provide efficient bandwidth usage, diagnostics, and scalable VLAN management. These features help network administrators manage traffic efficiently and support multi-tenant or service-based applications.
Robust Multicast and IPv6 Support:
The switch includes IGMP Snooping for efficient multicast traffic distribution and MLD Snooping for IPv6 environments. These features optimize bandwidth usage and improve performance in multicast-heavy networks, such as IPTV deployments.
Flexible and Secure Management Options:
Manage the DES-3200-18 using SNMP, RMON, Telnet, SSH, SSL, or a web-based GUI. Advanced features like DHCP Auto-Configuration, LLDP, and Cable Diagnostics simplify deployment and troubleshooting. D-Link Single IP Management (SIM) and compatibility with D-View 6.0 centralize monitoring and configuration, making this switch ideal for complex enterprise or carrier-grade networks.
