D-Link DES-3326 w/ DES-322T

D-Link DES-3326 w/ DES-322T ... for an optional two port GBIC (Gigabit Interface Converter) module for fast connection speeds and flexibility. The DES-3326 establishes a new price/performance point in its product category by blending the latest advancements, ASIC design and manufacturing. The D-Link DES-3326 provides twenty-four (24) 10/100 ports and enables high performance workgroups/departments multi-Gigabit connections to servers and other switches.

By supporting standards-based network management protocols, the DES-3326 can be easily integrated into many third-party network management packages such as HP OpenView, CiscoWorks and Optivity. The D-Link DES-3326 can simultaneously forward layer 2 and layer 3 traffic across all ports, optimizing the transport of all of your business critical data. Utilizing an 8.8Gbps switch fabric and support for 8, 000 MAC addresses, the DES-3326 has a fully wire-speed, non-blocking architecture to support all of your next generation applications. Advances in ASIC design and product engineering enable the D-Link DES-3326 to route IP traffic in excess of 6.6Mpps, outperforming more expensive multi-protocol software-based routers in its class.

This product comes with the DES-322T.

The DES-322T is a two-port Gigabit Ethernet module designed for the DES-3226 Layer 2 Switch, which provides two 1000-BASE-T Ethernet ports. As an expansion module, the DES-322T increases throughput and connectivity at gigabit speeds to servers and switches alleviating any bottlenecks that might occur in the network. The DES-322T is targeted at small, medium, and large businesses.
The DES-322T is compliant with the IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T standard, supporting both auto-negotiation at full duplex modes and flow control signaling on each individual port. Being an expansion module, the DES-322T supports all of the Layer 2 functionalities that is equipped in the DES-3226 Switch, supporting: SNMP, VLAN ID, Port Mirroring, QoS and Port Trunking.

The DES-322T also includes an informative LED-Light indicator displaying 1000BASE-T Mode connections, link build-ups, and packets being broadcasted along the network. The DES-322T also detects a MDI crossover connection when networked to another switch, alleviating the need to use a specific crossover cables.
