The DGS-1520 Series comprises advanced Lite Layer 3 Stackable Smart Managed Switches, providing 80 Gigabit stacking bandwidth.
With Zero Touch Provisioning for effortless multi-site deployments, it's tailored for server and storage applications, catering to SMBs with growing networks and substantial bandwidth requirements, enabling smooth aggregation between access and core layers.
Stack up to eight switches for high-density Gigabit aggregation
Effortless multi-site deployment
Four 2.5 GB Base-T ports for Wi-Fi 6 APs (PoE models)
10 GB Base-T and/or SFP+ (fiber) ports for stacking or uplink
Up to 188 Gbps switching capacity per switch
Up to 370 W PoE output per switch
Connect with DPS-520 for power redundancy (non-PoE models)
Supports dynamic routing and selective Q-in-Q tagging
The DGS-1520 Series brings reliable, yet affordable, Gigabit connectivity with four 10-Gigabit ports (two 10G Base-T and two 10G SFP+) for high-speed uplink or stacking. Boost your network performance, simplify your network infrastructure, improve bandwidth and reduce cabling complexity.

Zero Touch Provisioning is perfect for multi-site network expansions. Simply preconfigure your network settings in a centralized location, then install the DGS-1520 switches for effortless deployments.
Stack up to eight DGS-1520 switches with a total of 80 GB stacking bandwidth using hybrid mode (copper and/or fiber), increasing flexibility, scalability, and cost effectiveness for SMBs.
For a more resilient network infrastructure, connect up to four DGS-1520 switches (non-PoE models only) with the DPS-520 PoE redundant power supply system through the management port and actively back-up four devices to significantly reduce power redundancy costs.

The DGS-1520 series is overseen through D-View 8, an exceptionally adaptable and effortlessly scalable network management software. This software enhances network performance, streamlines network infrastructure, increases bandwidth, and minimizes the complexity of cabling.
