DES-1100 Series
EasySmart Switches
D-Link DES-1100-16/24 is the latest series of
EasySmart Switches. Equipped with 16 or 24 10/100
Mbps ports, the series integrates basic configurable
functions that provide performance and scalability.
With easy to use management interface via PC
Utility or Web Browser, these EasySmart series help
customers to quickly and easily deploy their network.
The DES-1100 Series provides a complete and
affordable solution for Small and Medium Business
or communities without IT staff. They are suitable for
Enterprise deployment, such as branch offices and
meeting rooms that require simple management.
Management options for the switches include
Web Management and SmartConsole Utility. The
series also supports Layer 2 features such as Port
Mirroring, Statistics and IGMP Snooping to optimize
performance for multicast applications. Both models
come with an innovative fanless design in compact
11”metal cases.
Resilience/Performance Enhancement
Equipped with a complete lineup of L2 features, these
switches include IGMP Snooping and Port Mirroring.
Network maintenance features include Loopback
Detection and Cable Diagnostics. Loopback Detection
is used to detect loops created by a specific port and
automatically shuts down the affected port. Cable
Diagnostics is designed for network administrators
to quickly examine the quality of the copper cables
and also determine the type of cable error. For
Quality of Service (QoS), the switches support 802.1p.
This standard is a mechanism that allows real-time
traffic classification into 8 priority levels mapped to
4 queues.
Traffic & Security Features
The DES-1100 series supports 802.1Q VLAN and Port-
based VLAN, for traffic segregation. The bandwidth
control feature allows network administrators to
define the throughput levels for each port in order to
manage bandwidth. It also provides fine granularity
to define the ingress/egress traffic limits down to 512
kbps segments. The Storm Control feature allows
detection when broadcast, multicast or unknown
unicast traffic hit the definable threshold. The switch
will start blocking or discarding packets which would
otherwise ‘flood’ the network. The blocked port will be
activated only when the broadcast or multicast traffic
falls below the defined threshold. Port Mirroring
helps administrators facilitate traffic diagnostics or
track switch performance and alter when necessary.
Versatile Management
The EasySmart Switches supports an intuitive
SmartConsole utility and a web-based management
interface that enables administrators to remotely
control their network down to the port level. The
SmartConsole easily allows customers to discover
multiple D-Link EasySmart Switches within the same
L2 network segment. With this utility, users do not
need to change the IP address of their PC and it also
provides an easy initial setting of the Smart Switches.
Switches within the same L2 network segment that
are connected to the user’s local PC are displayed on
screen for instant access. This enables discovered
devices basic switch configuration settings such as
password changes and firmware upgrades..
