D-LINK ADDS TWO MORE HIGH PERFORMANCE YET LOW COST SWITCHES TO OUR PRODUCT MIX
D-Link is pleased to introduce two new additions to our line of top selling 10/100 switches. In addition to
being feature rich, these switches are priced to provide the value that you have come to expect from D-Link.
See below for details….
DES-1024D – The DES-1024D is a very affordable, 24-Port 10/100 switch that
supports auto-negotiation for speed and duplex modes for each port along with
auto-MDI/MDI-X for each port. The DES-1024D also features an integrated
universal power supply, a rack mounting compact 11 inch design, and per port front
panel LEDs. In addition to all of the features that you would expect in a 10/100 Fast
Ethernet switch, the DES-1024D also features an extremely low cost per port
making it one of the most competitively priced 24-Port switches on the market.
DES-1026G – Rounding out D-Link’s line of unmanaged switches is the DES-
1026G – a 24-Port 10/100 switch with 2 10/100/1000 ports to support Gigabit
speeds. The DES-1026G includes many of the same features as the DES-1024D
but offers a rack mount compact 17 inch design along with Gigabit ports for
additional connectivity options. This switch too, is very competitively priced making
it an excellent alternative for enterprises that are looking to incorporate Gigabit
Ethernet into their networks.
