Overview
The DWS-3160 is D-Link's latest Unified L2+ Gigabit Wired/Wireless Switch.
Designed to be the ideal mobility solution for medium-sized and large enterprises
and service providers, the DWS-3160 empowers administrators to exercise total
control over their wireless networks by centralising all aspects of provisioning and
management. Able to manage up to 48 D-Link Unified Access Points by itself and
up to 192 in a switch cluster, the DWS-3160 can be configured to act either as a
Wireless Controller in the core network, or as an L2+ Gigabit Switch at the edge,
enabling it to be seamlessly integrated into any existing network infrastructure.
Simplified Management
The DWS-3160 is able to centralise all critical WLAN management, thereby eliminating
the need to manage Access Points (AP) individually. The administrator simply assigns a
profile to an individual D-Link Unified AP, and the configuration corresponding to that
profile would be applied onto that AP automatically. In addition, the DWS-3160 can
apply new firmware to all D-Link Unified Access Points on the network, thus greatly
simplifying the upgrade process.
Besides its wireless capabilities, the DWS-3160 also excels as an advanced L2+ switch.
Complete with RIPv1/v2 dynamic routing, ACL security, multilayer QoS, comprehensive
VLAN support, as well as Multicast Snooping capabilities, the DWS-3160 enables easy
and flexible deployment. Furthermore, multiple DWS-3160s can form a Switch Cluster,
which enables the administrator to configure all switches from one single Cluster Mas-
ter. As the size of the cluster grows, so can the number of D-Link Unified Access Points
being managed. Up to 192 D-Link Unified Access Points may be managed by the Switch
Cluster. This helps to significantly simplify management and reduce maintenance efforts
when a network is scaled up
