D-Link Express EtherNetwork Switch (DES-1024D)
24 x 10/100Base-TX
Description
The 24-port D-Link DES-1024D unmanaged switch is the latest addition to D-Link's popular line of Express EtherNetwork products. Like other products in the line, the DES-1024D combines ease of use with unsurpassed performance resulting in an exceptional value for any cost-conscious network administrator who wants the best possible solution at the best possible price.
The DES-1024D is truly Plug-&-Play with features like: Auto Speed Sensing - allowing it to automatically sense whether a network device is running at 10Mbps or 100Mbps then automatically adjusting itself for optimal performance; Auto-Negotiation (Full or Half Duplex) - negotiating and running the highest supported transmission rate whether at Half- or Full-Duplex; and Auto MDI/MDIX Crossover-offering auto-negotiating MDI/MDIX detection on every port to eliminate the need for crossover cables or uplink ports.
The DES-1024D features a non-blocking wire-speed architecture with a 4.8Gbps switching capacity, for maximum data throughput. It also features an integrated universal power supply, and per port diagnostics LEDs that make it easy to "spot check" for problems. With wire-speed filtering and Store-and-Forward switching, the DES-1024D also maximizes network performance while minimizing the propagation of bad network packets.
Each DES-1024D includes free technical support and is backed by a limited 5-year warranty. Support materials include documentation in Acrobat pdf, FAQs, an installation guide, and a product manual.
This intelligent, easy-to-use 10/100BASE-T swich will enhance and compliment any existing network infrastructure and deliver the performance that IT managers and other SMB network administrators demand.

Pros: The switch works great. Rackmountable for nice organization.Cons: None for the switch.The switch works great. Rackmountable for nice organization. None for the switch. My rebate got denied because it says I didn't postmark within 30 days of the purchase date? There is nothing on the terms about that. The only deadline was by 5-30-2010 which I mailed well before that date. So I'm pretty annoyed about that. Haven't heard good things about d-link rebates in the past either.

Pros: Router works great. Runs fast and cool even when heavily loaded. I use this switch at lan parties which I have around once a month.Cons: Had no cons till our last lan party when it died. Kind of has me wondering about Dlink considering the switch was less than 7 months old.Router works great. Runs fast and cool even when heavily loaded.

Kind of has me wondering about Dlink considering the switch was less than 7 months old. Depending on the next switch, and how Dlink goes about replacing this one, will determine my next comments about this switch, and if I recommend it to other people.

I am wondering if they will even stand behind their Limited 5 year warranty??

Pros: Good price, good warrantyCons: Customer called me back up and let me know that they were having all kinds of flaky problems. It turned out to be these switches. I had one on the front end and one on the back end of the network, and all users were having difficuty getting to each other and the internet. We replaced these switches with LINKSYS ones, and life is good.I am going to go through the RMA with D-Link to see if they will honor the warranty.Good price, good warranty Customer called me back up and let me know that they were having all kinds of flaky problems.

Pros: A 24-port 10/100 Mbps switch with a 5-year warranty for under $xx. You just can't go wrong. A metal case and a quality design make it sturdy.Cons: It does say rackmountable, but the case it actually smaller lengthwise than a 1U configuration (more like .5U). The mounting brackets are 3" so as to fit in a standard 19" rack. Looks kinda wonky, but it works. Other than aesthetics, the switch works quite well so far.A 24-port 10/100 Mbps switch with a 5-year warranty for under $xx. You just can't go wrong. A metal case and a quality design make it sturdy.

Got this switch to replaced an old Bay Networks 24-port we had gotten off fleaBay that was slowly dying a horrible death. Put it through its paces shortly thereafter with a 15-person LAN and two servers. No problems and no heat issues at all over 10+ hours.
