28-Port Gigabit Managed Switch

The D-Link DBS-2000-28P is a 28-port managed network switch built for business environments. It delivers 10/100/1000Base-T connectivity across its copper ports and supports 1000Base-X for fibre uplinks. Cloud management via Nuclias simplifies configuration and monitoring across distributed sites. The unit weighs 8.27 lb and is supplied in new condition.

Suits Small-to-Medium Deployments

This switch fits offices or branch locations needing centralised, cloud-based control of up to 28 wired endpoints such as access points, cameras or workstations. It is not for buyers who require 10 GbE or faster uplink speeds. It is also not for teams that prefer purely on-premise management without a cloud dependency. Organisations needing Layer 3 routing or high-density PoE budgets beyond the specified port count should evaluate other options.

28 Gigabit Ports with Cloud Management

The defining specification is the combination of 28 Gigabit Ethernet ports and Nuclias cloud-managed operation. This port count determines how many devices can connect directly without adding a second switch. The cloud management model dictates how policies, VLANs and firmware updates are applied. Verify that the port count and management approach match the network design before purchasing.
