• Campus network access deployments
• Office LAN and floor distribution
• Fast Ethernet managed access networks
• Networks requiring virtual or physical stacking
• Copper and fiber Gigabit uplink expansion
• CCTV access layer connectivity
• VoIP and IP multicast applications
• Education, administration, and corporate network environments
• Managed networks requiring security, QoS, VLAN, and centralized management
Connect Gates Recommendation:
• Connect Gates recommends the D-Link DES-3528 for enterprise and campus projects that require a reliable managed access switch with stacking capability and flexible Gigabit uplinks.
• It is a practical choice for access layer networks where Fast Ethernet endpoints are still used, while Gigabit uplinks are needed for backbone connectivity.
• The fanless design, 19-inch rack-mount form factor, optional redundant power supply support, and D-Link Single IP Management make it suitable for offices, schools, administration buildings, and medium enterprise networks.
• For best performance, Connect Gates recommends using suitable SFP transceivers for fiber uplinks and planning stacking/uplink ports according to the required network topology.
