Crystal clear pictures, impressive design and the highest levels of quality and reliability: this is the MULTEOS from NEC Display Solutions. Developed specially for business users, it can be found anywhere where overworked standard CRT, LCD and PDP TVs were once used, or where digital signage systems have been installed.

Several DGS-3627 switches may be physically stacked, using low-cost CX4 10 Gigabit copper modules. In this configuration, one or two 10-Gigabit uplinks may be created, depending on whether the linear or fault-tolerant ring stacking1 is implemented. Up to 12 switches can be stacked in this way.

Using the low-cost coaxial cable as the medium to stack switches together provides not only high-bandwidth stacking but also the flexibility to add 10-Gigabit uplinks strictly as needed. The three open slots can also be used for optional 10-Gigabit XFP fiber uplinks to servers or a backbone connection.

With D-Link Single IP Management (SIM) support, you can easily add up to 32 switch units -regardless of the model- in a virtual stack in addition to your physical stack. Multiple switches can be configured, monitored and maintained from any workstation running a Web browser via one single IP address. The stack is managed as a single object, as all stacked units are identified by a single IP address. A simple yet powerful web-based interface allows you to perform most management and configuration tasks.

A complete set of security features is provided, which includes L2/L3/L4 multi-layer Access Control Lists (ACLs) and 802.1X user authentication via TACACS+ and RADIUS servers. The switch also offers suppression capabilities and Layer3 IPv4/v6 static routing to increase network performance and security. In addition, when implemented in conjunction with a D-Link NetDefend firewall, this switch as a stand-alone or in a stack, is able to automatically quarantine any host displaying abnormal behaviour. Finally, D-Link's ZoneDefense, provides proactive network security by preventing viruses from spreading through the network and thwarting harmful network attacks.

The DGS-3627 switch provides VLAN support including GARP/GVRP and 802.1Q to enhance network security and performance. The switch implements a robust set of multi-layer (L2, L3, L4) QoS/CoS features to ensure that critical network services like VoIP, ERP, Intranet and video conference are prioritised. Bandwidth control allows administrators to set traffic limits on each port, ensuring a committed level of service for end users. For advanced applications, per-flow bandwidth control allows easy fine-tuning of service types based on specific IP addresses or protocols. In addition, a unique feature, D-Link Safeguard Engine, allows administrators to configure thresholds that limit the impact of packet flooding typically caused by virus/worm outbreaks. This increases the switch's reliability, serviceability and availability.

The Cisco Catalyst 3560 Series switches is a line of fixed configuration, enterprise-class, IEEE 802.3af and Cisco prestandard Power over Ethernet (PoE) switches in Fast Ethernet configurations that provide availability, security, and quality of service (QoS) to enhance network operations. The Catalyst 3560 is an ideal access layer switch for small enterprise wiring closets or branch office environments that are using their LAN infrastructure for the deployment of new products and applications such as IP telephones, wireless access points, video surveillance, building management systems, and remote video kiosks. Customers can deploy network-wide intelligent services, such as advanced QoS, rate limiting, access control lists, multicast management, and high-performance IP routing - while maintaining the simplicity of traditional LAN switching. Embedded in the Catalyst 3560 is the Cisco Cluster Management Suite (CMS) Software, which allows users to simultaneously configure and troubleshoot multiple Cisco Catalyst desktop switches using a standard Web browser. Cisco CMS Software provides configuration wizards that greatly simply the implementation of converged networks and intelligent network services.

The Catalyst 3560 Series can provide a lower total cost of ownership (TCO) for deployments that incorporate Cisco IP phones and Cisco Aironet wireless LAN access points, as well as any IEEE 802.3af-compliant end device. Power over Ethernet removes the need for wall power to each PoE-enabled device and eliminates the cost for additional electrical cabling that would otherwise be necessary in IP phone and wireless LAN deployments. Taking advantage of Cisco Catalyst Intelligent Power Management, the 48-port version can deliver the necessary power to support 24 ports at 15.4W, 48 ports at 7.7W, or any combination in-between. Maximum power availability for a converged voice and data network is attainable when a Catalyst 3560 Switch is combined with the Cisco Redundant Power System 675 (RPS 675) for seamless protection against internal power supply failures and an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system to safeguard against power outages.

The Cisco Catalyst 3560 Series is available in the standard multilayer software image (SMI) or the enhanced multilayer software image (EMI). The SMI feature set includes advanced QoS, rate limiting, access control lists (ACLs), and basic static and Routing Information Protocol (RIP) routing functionality.
