28-Port Gigabit Smart Switch

The D-Link DGS-1210-28 is a rackmount smart managed switch with 24 RJ45 ports and four combo SFP slots. It delivers Layer 2+ features including static routing, VLANs, QoS and IGMP snooping for traffic optimisation. A fanless design ensures silent operation and reduced power draw. The unit complies with NDAA and TAA requirements for regulated projects.

Suited for managed access without PoE

This switch fits networks that need smart management, fibre uplinks and quiet deployment in offices or server rooms. It is not for installations that require Power over Ethernet to run phones, cameras or access points from the switch ports. Buyers needing PoE budget should consider a different model.

56 Gbps switching capacity

The fabric provides 56 Gbps of non-blocking throughput across all 28 ports. This figure determines whether the switch can handle aggregate traffic loads without congestion. Verify that your uplink and access patterns fit within this capacity before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I decide between using the 24 RJ45 ports and the 4 SFP ports on this 28-port switch?

The 24 RJ45 ports handle copper connections at 10/100/1000Mbps for standard devices, while the 4 SFP ports accept fibre modules for long-distance uplinks; both sets share the 56 Gbps switching capacity.

What does the 56 Gbps switching capacity mean for daily traffic on this switch?

It provides non-blocking throughput across all 28 Gigabit ports simultaneously, so full wire-speed forwarding is maintained even when every port is active.

Which IEEE standards does this switch comply with and what speed ceiling do they set?

It follows IEEE802.3, 802.3u, 802.3ab and 802.3x, capping each port at 1000 Mbps while enabling flow control and auto-negotiation.
