D-Link DQS-5000-32Q28 | 32-Port Managed Data center switch

The D-Link 5000 Series Data Center Switches are designed for high-performance, low-latency networking, making them ideal for Top-of-Rack (ToR) or leaf-spine deployments in modern data centers. With support for Open Network Install Environment (ONIE), these switches enable flexible integration with third-party operating systems, offering cost-efficiency and scalability for SDN environments. Their modular design features hot-swappable power supplies and fans for enhanced reliability, while 1+1 redundancy minimizes downtime. The switches support a wide range of interface options, including SFP+, QSFP+, SFP28, and QSFP28 ports, to meet diverse networking demands. Advanced features like Data Center Bridging (DCB), VXLAN, and comprehensive Layer 2/3 functionality provide robust support for virtualization, traffic prioritization, and seamless scalability in large cloud environments. Energy-efficient airflow design and smart fan technology further optimize costs and support sustainable data center operations. ​
