D-Link DMS-1024 24-Port Multi-Gigabit Unmanaged Switch

Highlights

• High-Speed Networking: Twenty-four 2.5 Gigabit Ethernet ports provide multispeed transmission for high-performance Wi-Fi 6 networks, allowing fast data transfers and maximising network bandwidth.
• Durable Design: Metal housing design improves heat dissipation and enhances durability.
• Environmentally Friendly: IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) reduces power consumption when ports are not in use, conserving energy and lowering costs.

Product Overview

The image displays a D-Link DMS-1024 24-Port Multi-Gigabit Unmanaged Switch. It is a black, rectangular network device designed for rack mounting. The front panel features 24 Ethernet ports arranged in two rows, with individual LED indicators above each port for link and activity status. A power status LED and a system status LED are also present. The D-Link logo is prominently displayed on the left side of the front panel.

The DMS-1024 24-Port Multi-Gigabit Unmanaged Switch is ideally suited for Small Office/Home Office (SOHO) environments. With a durable design, silent operation, and plug-and-play functionality, the DMS-1024 switch can be easily set up and be placed in almost any location where network connectivity is required. Support for IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE), 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS), and multi-Gigabit Ethernet connection speeds provides advanced features in a compact package.

Integrated Networking

The DMS-1024 switch uses auto-sensing ports, providing a small workgroup to flexibly connect Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, Gigabit, and 2.5 Gigabit devices to create an integrated network. These ports detect the network speed via auto-negotiation, allowing you to get the maximum speed possible for each device connected to your network.

Simplified Installation

All of the ports on the DMS-1024 switch support automatic MDI/MDIX crossover, eliminating the need for crossover cables. Each port can be plugged in directly to a server, hub, router, or switch using regular straight-through twisted-pair Ethernet cables. In addition, the DMS-1024 switch features multiple front, easy-to-access Ethernet ports with LED indicators per port to easily distinguish link status.

Green Technology

The DMS-1024 switch features green technology, such as IEEE 802.3az Energy-Efficient Ethernet (EEE) and link status detection. Energy-Efficient Ethernet reduces power consumption of the switch when network utilisation is low, reducing the cost of ownership during periods of inactivity. Link status detection automatically powers down ports when there is no link detected, saving power when the connected device has been shut down or disconnected.

Traffic Management

The DMS-1024 switch includes traffic management features, such as IEEE 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS) and IEEE 802.3x Flow Control. The 802.1p QoS feature allows traffic to be classified in 8 priority levels, allowing different types of traffic to be prioritised, depending on their importance. Flow Control will temporarily stop data transmission when the switch's input buffer is full, helping to minimise dropped packets and providing a more reliable connection for all of your connected devices.
