D-Link - DES-1526 - 24-Port 10/100 Web Smart Switch with 2 Gigabit Ports and PoE

D-Link 24-Port Network Switch with 2 Gigabit Ports and PoE
The DES-1526 is an effective solution for small and medium businesses deploying wireless networks, increasing security, and adding multimedia applications. It features 24 PoE 802.3af ports integrated into a Web-Smart switch. It has advanced features such as SNMP, VLANs, priority queuing, and port monitoring/statistics. It provides up to 15.4Watts of power injection per PoE port providing more than enough power to drive multiple cameras, phones, and access points. In addition the DES-1526 provides 2 combo 1000Base-T/SFP for high-speed connections to servers and backbone switches. The DES-1526 offers powerful features at a fraction of the cost of a fully managed switch.

The D-Link DES-1526 switch supports SNMP
SNMP is a widely used and accepted protocol for receiving alarms and coordinating responses to network problems and incidents. SNMP monitoring is better than other forms of monitoring such as a simple ping or URL monitoring, because SNMP monitoring can be proactive notifying the administrator the moment a problem occurs. SNMP monitoring can identify when a piece of equipment is beginning to experience problems so that corrective action can be taken before it becomes critical.

The D-Link DES-1526 supports BootP and DHCP
BootP and DHCP are protocols used to send configuration information to a client such as an IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway. The DES-1526 supports these protocols as a client and is capable of receiving this important configuration automatically without having to be manually configured by a network administrator
