Applications:
• Business and SMB network switching.
• Connecting PCs, access points, IP phones, printers, servers, and network devices.
• CCTV and IP surveillance networks using Auto Surveillance VLAN.
• Voice network deployments using Voice VLAN.
• Fiber uplink connections between floors, cabinets, or network rooms.
• Managed network environments that need VLANs, static routing, security, and remote management.
Connect Gates Recommendation:
• Connect Gates recommends the D-Link DGS-1500-28 for customers who need a managed Gigabit switch with fiber uplink capability.
• It is suitable for offices, schools, clinics, showrooms, warehouses, and medium-sized business networks.
• The 24 Gigabit ports make it practical as a main access switch, while the 4 SFP uplinks provide flexibility for fiber backbone connections.
• Static Routing, Voice VLAN, Auto Surveillance VLAN, Virtual Stacking, ACL, and SNMP make it stronger than unmanaged or basic smart switches.
• This model is discontinued, so Connect Gates recommends confirming availability before offering it, or replacing it with a newer managed Gigabit switch model when required.
