D-Link DGS-3130-30PS/E Netwerkswitch Managed L3 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) Power over Ethernet (PoE) Grijs

The D-Link DGS-3130-30PS/E Managed L3 Gigabit Ethernet Switch 24 Ports PoE is a rack-mountable, managed layer-3 switch designed for business and campus networks that require reliable gigabit connectivity and Power over Ethernet (PoE). It provides 24 Gigabit RJ-45 ports with PoE capabilities and supports higher-speed uplinks. With a switching capacity of 168 Gbit/s and a MAC address table capable of 16,384 entries, the device handles large numbers of devices and extensive traffic flows while preserving forwarding performance and network stability.

Advantages

The switch delivers full Layer 3 functionality in a compact 24-port form factor, combining advanced routing and switching features with PoE support for powering access points, IP phones and cameras. Support for 10G uplinks and a comprehensive set of Ethernet standards ensures interoperability, traffic prioritization and energy-efficient operation. The metal chassis in grey and the managed firmware options provide flexibility for centralized administration and integration into existing network management systems.

Suitable for

• Small to medium enterprise access layer switching with PoE-powered devices
• Campus network aggregation with 10G uplinks
• IP telephony and wireless access point deployment
• Video surveillance systems requiring PoE cameras and stable throughput

How to use

Install the switch in a standard 19-inch rack using the supplied mounting brackets and ensure adequate ventilation around the chassis. Connect gigabit Ethernet cables from end devices or access points to the RJ-45 ports, and connect uplink ports to core switches or routers for aggregation. Configure PoE settings, VLANs, QoS policies and Layer 3 routing through the web-based management interface, command-line interface or supported network management tools. Apply firmware updates and backup configuration after initial setup.

Recommendations

For reliable operation, place the switch in a temperature-controlled environment and use appropriate surge protection. Plan PoE power budget according to the types and quantity of powered devices, and segregate voice, video and data traffic with VLANs and QoS to maintain predictable performance. Regularly monitor port status and logs to detect faults and schedule firmware updates during maintenance windows.
