They are great for busy SMBs who expect a lot of their network, including support for surveillance and VoIP. They are packed with traffic management & optimization features that keep your network congestion free. Meanwhile, management tools are flexible and intuitive, making your life easier. Easy to Use & Easy to Install D-Link Network Assistant Utility (DNA) can quickly discover and do initial setup for D-Link Networking devices such as the DGS-1100 Series, which greatly improves efficiency for solution deployment. VLANs: Stronger Security & Better Traffic Management Relatively easy to set up, VLANs can be a big boon for your network. They can isolate sensitive areas of your network, keeping them safe from those with malicious intent, or keeping bandwidth open for latency-sensitive traffic such as VoIP. For Voice If VoIP calls make up a large slice of your network usage, separating them onto their own VLAN can ensure they get the bandwidth they need for smooth conversations without lag or jitters. For Surveillance If you have surveillance cameras and devices attached to your network, putting them onto their own VLAN keeps surveillance footage running seamlessly. At the same time, it can help prevent a variety of malicious attacks by restricting access to different network areas. Green Technology D-Link Green technology enables the DGS-1100 Smart Managed Switches to save power without sacrificing performance. Most of the models in the series utilize a fanless design, for silent and energy-efficient operation. All are IEEE 802.3az-compliant and feature Link Status detection and Time-Based PoE.
