D-Link, the networking solutions provider for small business and medium enterprise IT environments, recently expanded its portfolio of chassis-based switching solutions with the DGS-6608 switch. The DGS-6608 is an eight-slot chassis switch that provides rich L2/L3 forwarding/routing features and enterprise-wide security features for enterprise local area networks (LAN), campus and metropolitan area networks (MAN).
Ideal for deployment in environments that require uninterrupted running of network applications and a high level of performance, security and control, the eight-slot DGS-6608 provides scalability and a high level of investment protection for businesses to deploy Gigabit and 10-Gigabit packet switching and routing services in multiple network environments, including enterprise LAN core, aggregation layer, and wiring closet edge. The DGS-6608 is equipped with high speed switch fabric and advanced software functions, including complete IPv6 support.
“IT teams are under intense pressure to build reliable networks that cost-effectively manage the bandwidth performance, security and reliability needs of today’s business environments,” said Steven Olen, director of product marketing, D-Link Systems, Inc. “The DGS-6608 is an intelligent and high-performance multi-layer LAN device that delivers the performance, high availability, modular design, and future proof architecture suitable for mission-critical applications of today, as well as those of the future.”
The eight-slot DGS-6608 chassis reserves two open slots for redundant control modules and six additional slots for user-selectable I/O port modules. Each control module is equipped with its own switch fabric and management agent and can be used for redundant backup and sharing of network load and management tasks. In addition, it provides up to eight redundant load-sharing power supplies and a hot swappable fan module to create a very highly available chassis-based device suitable for mission-critical network applications.
