Switch Description
The DGS-1520 series is the latest next generation of Smart Managed switches from D-Link. Switches in this series
feature a wide selection of different ports types and speeds that can be used to interconnect a variety of networking
devices to communicate with each other. The SFP+ ports, with fiber-optical cabling, can be used to uplink connections
that may span over great distances. Switches in this series also implement D-Link's innovative third generation Green
Ethernet technology (IEEE 802.3az) to save power from links that are inactive by turning LEDs off based on a
customized schedule and by allowing ports to enter a hibernated state automatically.
In the DGS-1520 Series, the following switches are available: DGS-1520-28, DGS-1520-28MP, DGS-1520-52, and
DGS-1520-52MP. Some features, throughout this guide, will apply to all the switches within the DGS-1520 Series.
When referring to these universal features, we will simply refer to the product as the Switch.
