D-Link 5-poorts Gigabit PoE smart managed switch met 1 PD-poort

The D-Link DGS-1100-05PDV2 is a managed Gigabit Ethernet switch with five 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and Power over Ethernet (PoE) support. Designed for small networks, it provides a 10 Gbit/s switching capacity, a MAC address table with 2,000 entries and full-duplex operation. The desktop, fanless form factor and IEEE 802.3az compliance deliver quiet and energy-efficient performance suitable for offices and compact deployments.

Advantages

This smart managed switch offers Layer 2 features such as VLAN, Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and link aggregation (static trunk on desktop models), together with security functions including IGMP snooping, static MAC and Storm Control. Built-in troubleshooting tools—Loopback Detection and Cable Diagnostics—simplify fault finding. Free D-Link utilities (Network Assistant and D-View 7 with a 25-node license) make initial setup and ongoing management easier.

Suitable for

• Small office networks requiring PoE for IP phones or wireless access points
• Compact installations where silent, fanless operation is preferred
• Environments needing basic Layer 2 management and security (VLAN, STP, IGMP snooping)

How to use

Place the switch on a stable, ventilated surface and connect each Ethernet device to the RJ-45 ports using Cat5e or better cabling. For PoE devices, connect compatible IP cameras, phones or access points to the PoE-capable ports; verify the power budget if multiple PoE devices are used. Access the web user interface to configure Layer 2 features (VLANs, STP, link aggregation) and security settings. Optionally install D-Link Network Assistant for discovery and D-View 7 for centralized management.

Recommendations

Use Cat5e or higher cable for reliable Gigabit links, enable energy-saving features where appropriate, and run initial diagnostics (Cable Diagnostics and Loopback Detection) after installation to confirm link quality and rule out wiring issues.
