D-Link Web Smart Switch DES-1228
A switch with a light touch when it comes to management
D-Link's DES-1228 is part of the company's lightly managed family of Web Smart Switches, offering much of the functionality of more expensive products but without the complexity.
Designed to be used either as a main backbone switch in small companies or as a cascaded solution on larger departmental networks, the DES-1228 can be used standalone or rackmounted using the brackets supplied. A single power supply is built in and there are 24 10/100Mbits/sec UTP ports at the front, with associated status LEDs arranged in a block alongside.
You also get four Gigabit Ethernet connectors for server uplinks or attachment to other switches. Two of these are UTP only, while two are feature-shared UTP and mini-GBIC connectors which, with the right adapters, enable the D-Link switch to support uplinks using fibre as well as twisted-pair cabling.
A Windows Smart Console utility is supplied to discover and monitor the D-Link switches, while for more detailed configuration a web interface is employed. Using this, you can set the port speed and other characteristics although, as they're all self-negotiating, very little manual intervention is required.
