Network managers can control the network down to the port level from remote locations using the Web-based management interface.  

Key features of the DXS-1100-10TS include:

  • Eight 10GBASE-T copper ports with RJ45 interfaces to 10 gigabit speeds over CAT6a/CAT7 LAN cabling up to 100 meters in distance;
  • Backward compatibility with 1000BASE-T for connections to any gigabit device;
  • Two 10 gigabit Ethernet fiber ports (SFP+);
  • Energy saving features such as smart fans, temperature sensors and sleep mode for inactive ports;
  • Client-based utility (D-Link Network Assistant Utility) and web-based management interface;
  • Advanced security features such as static MAC, Storm Control and IGMP snooping;
  • Support for auto surveillance VLAN (ASV) and auto voice VLAN support; and
  • Support for loopback detection and cable diagnostics support.
