## Summary description

The D-Link DGS-1520-28/E is a managed L3 network switch featuring 26 10G Ethernet ports, a switching capacity of 128 Gbit/s, and a MAC address table of 16384 entries. It supports various IEEE networking standards and is designed for efficient data management in rack-mounted environments.

## Long description

The D-Link DGS-1520-28/E is a managed Layer 3 rack-mount switch in a 1U form factor that provides high-density 10G Ethernet connectivity for small and medium businesses. It features twenty-six 10G-capable RJ-45 ports for combined 100/1000/10000 Mbps operation, four dedicated 10G uplink/stacking ports (mix of 10G Base-T and SFP+), and a switching capacity suited for aggregation and edge-to-core connectivity. The switch supports standard IEEE networking protocols and delivers a switching capacity and MAC address table designed to meet common SMB routing and switching requirements.
Advantages
The DGS-1520-28/E supports hybrid stacking and flexible uplink options, enabling up to eight switches to be stacked for simplified high-density Gigabit aggregation. Zero Touch Provisioning allows preconfigured settings to be deployed across multiple sites with minimal on-site configuration. PoE-capable models in the DGS-1520 family provide multi-gig 2.5G Base-T ports for Wi‑Fi 6 access points, while this managed L3 model offers advanced routing and VLAN features for improved traffic control and selective Q-in-Q tagging. The design balances high performance, manageability and cost-effectiveness for growing networks.
Suitable for
10G aggregation between access and core layers in SMB networks
Rack-mounted network environments requiring managed Layer 3 switching
Multi-site deployments using Zero Touch Provisioning
High-density Gigabit uplink or stacking scenarios
Key specifications
Model: D-Link DGS-1520-28/E (MPN: DGS-1520-28/E, EAN: 0790069472015)
Port count: 26 x 10G-capable RJ-45 Ethernet ports
10G uplink/stacking: Four dedicated 10G ports (10G Base-T and/or SFP+ depending on variant)
Switching capacity: Specified switching capacity up to 128 Gbit/s (product data) and family capability up to 188 Gbps per switch in some variants
MAC address table: 16,384 entries
Form factor: 1U rack-mount, weight 2.33 kg, colour: Black
Standards: Supports IEEE 802.3 series standards (including 802.3az, 802.3bz, 802.3at/af, 802.3ae, 802.3ab)
How to use
Install the DGS-1520-28/E in a standard 19-inch rack using the supplied rack ears and secure grounding per site guidelines. Connect uplink or stacking ports to other switches or core devices using appropriate Cat6a/Cat7 copper or SFP+ fiber modules. Use the management interface (web GUI, CLI or D-View 7 centralized management) to apply network settings, VLANs, routing policies and stacking configuration. For multi-site rollouts, prepare a Zero Touch Provisioning profile in the central management system and deploy switches on site; the device will retrieve the profile during initial network connection.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, use quality shielded cabling (Cat6a or better for 10G Base-T) and ensure firmware is kept up to date. When deploying multiple switches, consider hybrid stacking (copper and/or fiber) to maximize flexibility, and implement redundant power solutions where available to reduce single points of failure.
