D-Link’s DXS-3600 Series Top-of-Rack 10 Gigabit Stackable1 Managed Switch
consists of compact, high-performance switches that feature 10 Gigabit
Ethernet switching, routing, and very low latency. The 1U height and
front-to-back air ow make the DXS-3600 Series suitable for
Top-of-Rack data centre, enterprise and campus aggregation
network environments. The DXS-3600 Series consists of 24-port and 8-port
10 Gigabit SFP+ switches with an expansion module slot. The optional
expansion modules not only provide additional 10 Gigabit SFP+ ports
but also 120G stacking1, 10GBASE-T or 1000BASE-T connectivity for
dierent applications.
Convenient deployment
The DXS-3600 Series switches provide your network with high-performance
10 Gigabit Ethernet switching capacities of up to 960/480 Gbps and forwarding
rates of up to 714/357 Mbps. Hot-swappable power modules and fan trays
provides the switches with redundancy and high availability. As well as
redundancy, loading sharing between the power modules helps to further
extend their lifetime. The modular fan design can provide 2+1 redundancy
for the system. If a fan fails or the temperature rises, the smart fans will
ncrease their speed accordingly to ensure the device continues to operate
without downtime.
Top-of-Rack 10 Gigabit Managed Switch
Flexible software
The DXS-3600 Series can be deployed using one of two dierent software images.
The Standard Image (SI) features a wide range of Layer 2, VLAN, multicasting,
Quality of Service (QoS), security, data centre, and static routing functions. The
Enhanced Image (EI) features comprehensive IPv4/v6 routing including RIP, VRRP,
OSPF, BGP, and L3 multicasting features such as IGMP, MLD, PIM-DM, SM, SDM, SSM,
and DVMR. The Enhanced Image (EI) also supports L2/L3 MPLS VPN that enables
the DXS-3600 Series switches to be deployed as the core router of
an enterprise environment or as an aggregation switch in an
MPLS environment.
Data centre features
Data Centre Bridging (DCB) is an essential set of enhancements to
Ethernet for networking in data centre environments. The DXS-3600
Series switches support various core components of Data Centre
Bridging (DCB) such as IEEE 802.1Qbb, IEEE 802.1Qaz, and IEEE 802.1Qau;
preventing data loss during network congestion, managing the
allocation of bandwidth and providing congestion management.
The DXS-3600 Series switches also support cut-through switching,
which reduces network latency.
DXS-3600 Series
If the worst should happen to your network you need the very
best support and fast. Downtime costs your business money.
D-Link Assist maximises your uptime by solving technical
problems quickly and eectively. Our highly trained technicians
are on standby around the clock, ensuring that award-winning
support is only a phone call away.
With a choice of three aordable service oerings covering all
D-Link business products, you can select the package that suits
you best:
D-Link Assist Gold - for comprehensive 24-hour support
D-Link Assist Gold is perfect for mission-critical environments
where maximum uptime is a high priority. It guarantees four
hour around-the-clock response. Cover applies 24/7 for every
day of the year including holidays.
Energy ecient
The DXS-3600 Series switches allow users to manage airow by using
dierent power and fan module sets. Front-to-back
airow optimizes air circulation to provide more eective
cooling throughout rack systems in data centres. The switches also feature
built-in smart fans; internal heat sensors monitor and detect temperature
changes, and react accordingly by utilizing dierent fan speeds for
dierent temperatures. At lower temperatures, the fans will run slower, reducing
the switch’s power consumption and noise.
D-Link Assist Silver - for prompt same-day assistance
D-Link Assist Silver is designed for ‘high availability’ businesses
that require rapid response within regular working hours. It
provides a four hour response service Monday to Friday from
8am to 5pm, excluding holidays.
D-Link Assist Bronze - for guaranteed response on the
next business day
D-Link Assist Bronze is a highly cost-eective support solution
for less critical environments. Response is guaranteed within
eight business hours Monday to Friday from 8am to 5pm,
excluding holidays.
D-Link Assist can be purchased together with any D-Link
business product. So whether you’re buying switching, wireless,
storage, security or IP Surveillance equipment from D-Link, your
peace of mind is guaranteed. D-Link Assist also oers installation
and conguration services to get your new hardware working
quickly and correctly.
