Description
The D-Link DGS-1016D Gigabit Ethernet Network Switch 16 Port is a power-saving device that can automatically detect link status and reduce power usage of ports that are idle. The device also features a non-blocking switching architecture that filters and forwards packets at full wire-speed for maximum throughput. The device also features diagnostic LEDs which display status and activity, allowing you to quickly detect and correct problems on the network.
Power Savings by Number of Connected Ports and Link Status
Computers do not require Internet access all the time; neither do
switches utilize all ports at all times. When a computer or network
equipment is shutdown, switches often remain on and continue to
consume considerable amount of power. With Green Ethernet
technology, D-Link switches can automatically detect link status
and reduce power usage of ports that are idle. Computers or any
connecting parties set to standby mode (not power off), however,
will not provide significant power savings.
Power Savings by
Cable Length The Green Ethernet switches have the ability to
analyze the length of any Ethernet cable connected to them for
adjustment of power usage accordingly. Shorter lengths require less
power.
Overall Power Savings Per Day For a traditional
switch, power consumption remains constant even when the ports are
not in use. In a standard workday scenario where PCs are used for
10 hours a day and powered off 14 hours a day, and connected to the
switch using 20 meter cables, D-Link's Green Ethernet can save up
to 20% power used for each system. Get the blazing speed of Gigabit
Ethernet with the D-Link GigaExpress DGS-1016D, an 16-port
10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Switch that delivers power, performance,
and reliability in one cost-effective, space-saving design.
Increase the speed of your network server and backbone connections,
or make Gigabit to the desktop a reality. Power users in the
office, workgroup, or creative production environment can now move
large, bandwidth-intensive files faster. Transfer graphics, CGI,
CAD, or multimedia files across the network instantly. The
versatile and compact 1RU height design of the DGS-1016D enables
the device to be rackmounted in a standard 19 inch rack, while
conserving valuable rack space.
Power-Packed It features a
non-blocking switching architecture that filters and forwards
packets at full wire-speed for maximum throughput. An 8K MAC
address table provides scalability for even the largest networks.
Address learning and aging, 802.3x Flow Control for full-duplex
mode, and back pressure flow control for half-duplex mode
alleviates traffic congestion and ensures reliable data
transmission. Designed using industry standards, it is compatible
with virtually all 10, 100, and 1000Mbps Ethernet devices and other
vendor equipment. The D-Link DGS-1016D 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit
Switch protects your existing network investments while providing
you with a straightforward migration path to faster Gigabit speeds.
Easy to use The auto features of this gigabit switch make
installation plug and play and hassle-free. No configuring is
required. Auto MDI/MDI-X crossover on all ports eliminate the need
for crossover cables or uplink ports. Auto-negotiation on each port
senses the link speed of a network device (either 10, 100, or 1000
Mbps) and intelligently adjusts for compatibility and optimal
performance. It also features diagnostic LEDs which display status
and activity, allowing you to quickly detect and correct problems
on the network. Every port also supports a cable diagnostic feature
that helps to detect cable related problems.
