Dax Dx-0528GT

Introduction

Dax Dx-0528GT is a high-performance, managed, stackable Layer 3 switch that provides an ideal solution for workgroups, departments and enterprises. DX-0528GT has 24# 10/100/1000 Base-T Ports, 4 gigabit SFP ports (shared), 2 expansion slots for 10G Modules (Extend to 4*10GE XFP ports).

DX-0528GT is mainly designed to provide high density Gigabit desktop connectivity for mid-size and large enterprises. DX-0528GT offers a scalable and resilient solution and provides exceptional security function and QoS features to support enhanced coverage of voice, video, data and storage.

DX-0528GT provides comprehensive network management functions - Spanning Tree protocol for standard bridging, GVRP for VLAN configuration, SNMP, RMON and Web management. It delivers multilayer Gigabit switching performance at the backbone of the network.
Performance and Scalability
With 240Gbps switching capacity, DX-0528GT switch delivers high IPv4 IP routing performance. The SFP-based Gigabit ports support various optional Gigabit Ethernet mini GBIC transceivers, for different distance fiber connections.

Continuous Availability

In DX-0528GT Switch, IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol provides a loop-free network and redundant links to the core network with rapid convergence. IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol runs STP per VLAN base, providing L2 load sharing on redundant links. IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) increases bandwidth by automatically aggregating several physical links together as a logical trunk and providing load balancing and fault tolerance for uplink connections. IGMP snooping prevents flooding of IP multicast traffic, and limits bandwidth intensive video traffic to only the subscribers.

L3 Features

DX-0528GT switch delivers high-performance, hardware based IP routing. RIP v1/v2 and OSPF v2 provide dynamic routing by exchanging routing information with other Layer 3 switches and routers. DVMRP, PIM-DM and PIM-SM Multicast Routing Protocols send IP multicast traffic from one subnet to another. VRRP prevents your system from failing by dynamically backing up multiple L3 switches for routing.

Comprehensive QoS

DX-0528GT Switch supports 8 queues per port enable differentiated management of up to 8 traffic types. Traffic is prioritized according to IEEE802.1p, DSCP, IP precedence and TCP/UDP port number, giving optimal performance to real-time applications such as voice and video.

Enhanced Security

In DX-0528GT Switch, IEEE 802.1X port-based access control and MAC-based access control ensure all users are authorized before being granted access to the network. Access Control Lists (ACLs) can be used to restrict access to sensitive network resources by denying packets based on L2/L3/L4 headers information.. RADIUS Authentication enables centralized control of the switch and restricts unauthorized users from altering the configuration of the switch.

Simple Management

Industry standard Command Line Interface (CLI) via console port or Telnet can be used for switch management. Embedded user friendly web interface helps users quickly and simply configure switches.
