Application Scenario

See how DGS-1520 Series switches can help businesses create a reliable and high-performance network.

Application Scenario

Flexible Hybrid Stacking

Stack up to eight DGS-1520 switches using both copper 10GBASE-T and/or fibre SFP+ ports. The hybrid stacking support adds flexibility as well as lowering the cost of cabling by using copper instead of all fibre.

Flexible Hybrid Stacking
High Availability

High Availability

Boost your network performance and reliability while simplifying management and cabling. Physically stack up to 8 switches with a total of 80G stacking bandwidth.


x4 10G Ports: 2 x 10GBase-T + 2 x SFP+ ports for  stacking and connection to the network core


80G Stacking Bandwidth: Physically stack up to 8 switches with a total of 80G stacking bandwidth.

Zero-Touch Provisioning

Zero-Touch Provisioning

For multi-site network expansion, the latest firmware and network configurations can be downloaded onto the DGS-1520 Series switches without the need for on-site IT personnel, for rapid and effortless deployment.

Advanced L2 and L3 Functionalities

Advanced L2 and L3 Functionalities

Advanced software features such as selective Q-in-Q, VRRP, RIP and OSPF allows businesses to adapt to changes in their network. For those with expanding network requirements and bandwidth demands, the DGS-1520 Series is a highly cost-effective upgrade option to add 10 Gigabit connectivity to the network infrastructure.

Guarantee Uptime with Power Redundancy

Guarantee Uptime with Power Redundancy

For a truly resilient network, connect up to four DGS-1520 switches* to the optional redundant power supply (DPS-520). Should the internal power supply unexpectedly fail on any of the connected switches, your network will be unaffected, allowing the business to continue as usual.
