Switch Description
The D-Link DGS-3630 Series is a high performance member of the D-Link Layer 3 switch family. Ranging from
10/100/1000 Mbps edge switches to core gigabit switches, the switch family has been future-proof designed to provide
fault tolerance, flexibility, port density, robust security, and maximum throughput with a user-friendly management
interface for the networking professional.
This cost-effective Gigabit Switch provides an affordable solution for administrators to upgrade their networks to high
speed Gigabit connections. The dedicated stacking ports offer up to 40G or 80G bi-directional bandwidth, which also
makes the DGS-3630 Series suitable as a backbone solution for SMBs. The advanced ACL and user authentication
functions on the Switch extend the network security coverage from core to edge. The unique D-Link Safeguard Engine
protects the DGS-3630 Series from the threat of worms and viruses, thereby increasing overall reliability,
serviceability, and availability.
The Switch has a combination of 1 Gbps RJ45/SFP ports and 10 Gbps SFP+ ports that may be used to connect
various networking devices to the Switch or to physically stack the Switch with other switches in this series. The Small
Form-factor Portable (SFP) combo ports are used with fiber-optical transceiver cabling in order to uplink various other
networking devices for a gigabit link that may span great distances.
The D-Link DGS-3630 Series includes the following switches:
 DGS-3630-28TC supports twenty RJ45 ports (10/100/1000 Mbps), four Combo RJ45/SFP ports (10/100/1000
Mbps and 100/1000 Mbps), and four SFP+ ports (10G).
 DGS-3630-28SC supports twenty SFP ports (100/1000 Mbps), four Combo RJ45/SFP ports (10/100/1000
Mbps and 100/1000 Mbps), and four SFP+ ports (10G).
 DGS-3630-28PC supports twenty RJ45 PoE ports (10/100/1000 Mbps), four Combo RJ45 PoE/SFP ports
(10/100/1000 Mbps and 100/1000 Mbps), and four SFP+ ports (10G).
 DGS-3630-52TC supports forty-four RJ45 ports (10/100/1000 Mbps), four Combo RJ45/SFP ports
(10/100/1000 Mbps and 100/1000 Mbps), and four SFP+ ports (10G).
 DGS-3630-52PC supports forty-four RJ45 PoE ports (10/100/1000 Mbps), four Combo RJ45 PoE/SFP ports
(10/100/1000 Mbps and 100/1000 Mbps), and four SFP+ ports (10G).
The D-Link License Management System (DLMS) is used to upgrade the software features available on the Switch.
One of three DLMS licenses can be installed on the Switch to allow it to operate in either the Standard Image (SI)
mode, Enhanced Image (EI) mode, or the MPLS Image (MI) mode. The MI mode includes all the features available in
the EI mode and adds additional features specifically tailored for telecommunication applications. The EI mode
includes all the features available in the SI mode and adds additional core Layer 3 features.
