Switch Description
The DGS-1210/ME Metro Ethernet Switch is equipped with Copper ports (10/100/1000Mbps) and SFP
ports (1000Mbps) that can be used to attach various networking devices to the network like Com puters,
Notebooks, Print Servers, Network Attached Storage devices, IP Cam eras, VoIP PBX devices, and other
Switches. The Sm all Form Factor Por ta ble ( SFP) port s c an be us ed t oget her with f iber -opt ica l trans c ei vers in
order to connect various other n etworking devices , using a fiber-op tic connection , to the network at Gigabit
Ethernet speeds over great distances.
This DGS-1210/ME Metro Ethernet Switch provides unsurpassed performance, fault tolerance, scalability,
robust security, standar d-based interoperab ility and impressive techn ology to future-proof depar tmental and
enterprise network deployments.
It allows IGMP Snooping a nd Authentication, QoS, B andwidth Control, ACL and many security functions. It
can be managed by Web UI, or commands via Telnet.
The DGS-1210/ME Metro Ether net Switches have different port configuration (10/100/1000Base-T or SFP
ports) that ma y be used in to uplink var ious network devices to the Switch, inc luding PCs, hubs and other
switches to provide a gigabit Ethernet uplink in full-duplex mode. The SFP (Small Form Factor Portable)
ports are used with fiber-o ptical transceiver c abling in order to up link various other net working devices for a
gigabit link that may span great distances.

NOTE: See the DPS-200A/500A Quick Installation Guide for more
information.
CAUTION: DO NOT connect the RPS to the AC power before the DC
power is connected might damage the internal power supply.
The following section explains how to connect the DPS-200A/500A to the Switch.
• Disconnect the Switch from the main AC power source.
• Insert the 14-pin end of the DPS-CB150-2PS into the DPS-200A/500A and the 2-pin end into the
receptacle of the RPS port on the Switch.
• Using a standard AC power cord, connect the DPS-200A/500A to the main AC power source. A
green LED on the front panel of the DPS-200A/500A will illuminate to indicate a successful
connection.
• Make sure that the ON/OFF toggle switch on the rear panel of the Switch is turned on.
• Re-connect the Switch to the AC power source and power on the DPS-200A/500A.
No configuration is needed in the Switch software for this installation.
Installing the RPS into a Rack-mount Chassis (for DGS-1210-10/12TS/28X/28XS/ME only)
The DPS-200A/500A are the redundant power supply unit designed to conform to the voltage requirements
of the RPS port of the Switch being supported. The DPS-200A/500A can be installed into a DPS-800 rackmount chassis unit.

This chapter provides unpacking and installation information for the D-Link DGS-1210/ME Metro Ethernet
Switch.
Step 1: Unpacking
Open the shipping carton and carefully unpack its contents. Please c onsult the packing list located in the
User Manual to mak e sure all i tems are present and u ndamaged. If an y item is missing or dam aged, pleas e
contact your local D-Link reseller for replacement.

One RJ-45 console cable
Power cord clip
Power cord
Rack mount kit
Rubber feet
If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact the local reseller for replacement.
Step 2: Switch Installation
For safe switch installation and operation, it is recommended that you:
Visually inspect the power cord to see that it is secured fully to the AC power connector.
Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation and adequate ventilation around the switch.
Do not place heavy objects on the switch.
Desktop or Shelf Installation
When installing the switc h on a desktop or shelf, the r ubber feet included w ith the device must be attac hed
on the bottom at each cor ner of the device’s base. All ow enough ventilatio n space between the dev ice and
the objects around it.
Figure 2.1 – Attach the adhesive rubber pads to the bottom
Rack Installation
The switch can be mounted in an EIA standard size 19-inch r ack, which can be plac ed i n a wirin g closet with
other equipment. T o install, attac h the m ounting br ackets to th e switc h’s side p anels (one on each s ide) and
secure them with the screws provided (please note that these brackets are not designed for palm size
switches).

Figure 2.2 – Attach the mounti ng brackets to the Switch
Then, use the screws provided with the equipment rack to mount the switch in the rack.
Figure 2.3 – Mount the Switch in the rack or chassis
Please be aware of following safety Instructions when installing:
A) Elevated Operat ing Ambient - If instal led in a closed or multi-u nit rack assembly, the op erating ambient
temperature of the rac k environm ent ma y be greater than room ambient. T herefor e, considera tion should b e
given to installing the equ ip ment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma)
specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipm ent in the r ack s hould be such th at a hazar dous c onditio n is
not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply
circuit, and the ef fect that o verloadin g of the circu its m ight have on over current pr otection a nd suppl y wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular
attention should be give n to supply connecti ons other than direct c onnections to the branch c ircuit (e.g. use
of power strips)."
Step 3 – Plugging in the AC Power Cord
Users may now connect th e AC power cord into the r ear of the switch an d to an electrical outlet (pr eferably
one that is grounded and surge protected).
