D-Link 28-Port 10-Gigabit Smart Managed PoE Switch

The D-Link 28-Port 10-Gigabit Smart Managed PoE Switch is a cutting-edge networking solution designed for enterprises and small-to-medium businesses that demand top-tier performance, flexibility, and efficient network management. Engineered to support converged workloads—from voice and video to high-density wireless access—this switch provides robust PoE power, scalable capacity, and intuitive management tools that simplify complex deployments. Whether you’re building a modern campus network, expanding a branch, or optimizing an edge data center, this switch delivers reliable throughput, granular control, and smart features that help IT teams stay ahead of evolving network demands.

  • High-density, high-performance design: The 28-Port 10-Gigabit Smart Managed PoE Switch combines dense connectivity with powerful switching capabilities, giving you ample ports for IP phones, cameras, access points, and edge servers while maintaining low latency and strong throughput. Its scalable architecture supports growing networks, ensuring you can add devices and services without replacing hardware. This is ideal for environments that require seamless data flow, zero-compromise performance, and the flexibility to handle bandwidth-intensive applications with ease.
  • Smart management for precise control: Take command of your network with a comprehensive management stack that includes a web-based GUI, CLI access, and SNMP support. Create and enforce VLANs to segment traffic, apply Quality of Service (QoS) policies to prioritize critical applications, and implement Access Control Lists (ACLs) for granular security. Advanced features like link aggregation (LACP), storm control, and port mirroring provide deep visibility and robust management—empowering network admins to tune performance, isolate issues, and enforce policy consistently across all ports.
  • Power over Ethernet with efficient energy use: Each PoE-capable port can deliver power to compatible devices such as IP cameras, phones, and wireless APs, simplifying cabling and reducing the need for separate power infrastructure. The switch uses intelligent power budgeting to optimize energy delivery, ensuring high-priority devices receive the necessary power while conserving energy during periods of low activity. This streamlined PoE capability reduces total cost of ownership and accelerates rollout of networked devices across the organization.
  • Security and reliability for business networks: Built with enterprise-grade security features, the switch supports 802.1X authentication, robust port security, and ACL-based access control to prevent unauthorized devices from joining the network. Layer 2+ features such as STP/RSTP/MSTP provide loop protection and network resilience, while storm control and broadcast/unknown unicast/multicast rate limiting help maintain stable performance under heavy load. The result is a safer, more reliable network foundation for IP surveillance, VoIP, and real-time collaboration.
  • Deployment flexibility and scalability: The 28-Port 10-Gigabit Switch is designed for flexible deployment scenarios, whether mounted in a standard 19-inch rack or placed on a secure shelf in a data closet. Its compact form factor, rugged build, and support for modular uplinks allow you to scale your network as needs evolve—adding more devices, segments, and services without downtime or disruptive migrations. It’s an excellent choice for growing SMBs and distributed enterprise networks seeking centralized management with local control.

How to install D-Link 28-Port 10-Gigabit Smart Managed PoE Switch

  • Plan your layout: Determine optimal placement for the switch, ensuring adequate ventilation and accessible cabling paths. Identify a suitable rack location or a stable desk/stand where the unit can be secured.
  • Mount or place the switch: If mounting, attach the included rack ears and secure the device in a 19-inch rack. For desktop setups, place the switch on a flat, stable surface away from heat sources and dust.
  • Connect power: Plug the switch into a reliable power source. Verify the power indicator灯 turns on, and ensure any redundant power options are configured if your model supports them.
  • Connect devices and uplinks: Connect PoE devices (IP cameras, phones, APs) to the PoE ports. Connect the uplink to your network core or router using the 10-Gigabit SFP+ ports to ensure fast, low-latency upstream connectivity.
  • Initial onboarding: Access the management interface via a computer connected to the switch. Set a secure management IP (DHCP or static), update firmware if available, and configure baseline settings such as VLANs, basic QoS, and PoE policies.
  • Configure security and services: Implement 802.1X authentication, define VLANs for segmentation, enable necessary ACLs, and set up monitoring alerts. Verify that PoE devices receive power and that traffic flows satisfy your QoS policies.
  • Test and document: Validate connectivity for all critical devices, test PoE power delivery, and document the network map, IP assignments, and configured policies for future maintenance.
