In today’s fast-growing enterprise and campus networks, scalability and manageability are paramount.
D-Link’s Stackable Architecture with High Port Density meets these demands by offering businesses the ability to stack multiple switches together—up to 8 units—to form a single, unified virtual switch. This innovative approach ensures businesses can grow their network without losing control or increasing complexity.

Key Feature: Stack up to 8 switches into a single virtual switch

At the core of this architecture is its exceptional stacking capability. By stacking up to eight switches, organizations can benefit from:

• Unified Control Plane: Manage all connected switches as if they were one device.
• Up to 576 Gigabit Ports: High port density for dense data center or enterprise environments.
• Scalable and Modular Design: Expand network capacity as needed without overhauling infrastructure.

Why It Matters

Competing solutions from brands like Cisco or Aruba offer similar stacking functionalities—but at a much higher price point.
D-Link’s Stackable Architecture with High Port Density delivers comparable enterprise-grade features with a more budget-friendly approach.
The unified control plane simplifies IT workflows, while high port density supports large-scale deployments like smart campuses, metro networks, and multi-tenant buildings.

Most importantly, the system allows for minimal downtime and simplified maintenance. If one switch in the stack fails, traffic is automatically rerouted through the other switches—ensuring seamless continuity.

Use Case Scenarios

• Campus Networks with multiple departments and floors
• Data centers requiring high throughput and low latency
• Multi-site retail environments needing centralized control
• Smart cities where scalability and rapid deployment are crucial

Affordable Powerhouse Compared to the Competition

For network architects seeking flexibility without blowing the budget, D-Link’s stackable switch technology is the ideal choice. Compared to similarly spec’d solutions from top-tier vendors, D-Link delivers a powerful, scalable option that won’t drain IT budgets.
