Combining plug-and-play simplicity with exceptional performance, superior reliability and great affordability, the D-Link DGS-1216T Web Smart switch provides an ideal solution for bandwidth-starved work groups and departments, perfect for the small or medium office. A good list of advanced features such as Gigabit uplink combo ports, QoS, and versatile management maximizes its value and functionality.
As an environment-responsible electronics, the DGS-1216T adopts D-Link Green Technology to lower power consumption by adjusting power supply according to link status. If a port does not have a cable link or the connected device is powered down, the port goes to “sleep mode”, reducing power consumption and saving energy. Couple with the Web-based Management Interface, the D-Link SmartConsole Utility helps you manage, plan and troubleshoot network configurations in just a few minutes, keeping your network up and running in a friendly, hassle-free way.

Secure Your NetworkPowered by D-Link Safeguard Engine, the DGS-1216T detects and blocks broadcast, multicast, and unicast flooding when frames enter the switch, which can overload a CPU and bring network traffic to a halt. In addition, the switches provide support for secure encrypted 802.1X Port-based Authentication, Broadcast Storm Control, and up to 256 static MAC address entries.
802.1p Priority Tagging or DSCP-based QoSThe DGS-1216T allows users to prioritize traffic based on 802.1p or DSCP-based (Differentiated Services Case Point) QoS. Port-based QoS prioritizes all port traffic with one value, while 802.1p classifies frames according to their VLAN tag. DSCP-based QoS prioritizes traffic according to its IP header. DSCP-based QoS and 802.1p priority tagging prioritizes traffic such as VoIP as it enters the switch, ensuring that your data is always clear and jitter-free.
Gigabit Network ConnectivityThe D-Link DGS-1216T integrates 1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet technology that provides a tenfold increase over 100M Fast Ethernet and a hundredfold increase over 10M Ethernet, to raise the speed and performance threshold for a converged network.
Multiple PortsThe D-Link DGS-1216T features a built-in 16-port Ethernet switch for direct connections to 16 PCs or additional switches.
Link AggregationSupporting Static Link Aggregation, the D-Link DGS-1216T can “trunk” multiple ports together to function as a single, high-bandwidth channel, greatly benefiting you when a high-bandwidth channel is needed to uplink to another switch.
Green Ethernet TechnologyWith Green technology, the D-Link DGS-1216T automatically adjusts power usage according to link status, greatly reducing power consumption and operational costs while generates less heat for reliable operation.
