D-Link today said that it is entering the digital signage market. The company is demonstrating a 32-inch sign and two 10-inch signs along with its back-end content and advertising delivery system at Interop 2008 in Las Vegas. Pricing and availability was not announced.
D-Link today announced the expansion of its "Green Ethernet" switch product line to include three of its "Web Smart" series products.
D-Link yesterday announced the start of shipments of its DPG-1200 PC-on-TV, which was previewed at January's Consumer Electronics show. The device allows any PC-based audio or video content to be remotely displayed on remote TVs or displays.
Last month, we reported that D-Link's troubled DIR-855 dual-band draft 802.11n router was once again delayed from reappearing on store shelves, this time due to component (un)availability. We just received an update from D-Link on the situation.
The D-Link DIR-625 has been added to the Router and Wireless Charts. The DIR-625 is one step up from D-Link's entry-level draft 802.11n DIR-615.
The 625 is also a two-antenna design (2T2R) with a four port 10/100 switch. But it has a different Ubicom processor that yields 100 Mbps wire-speed unidirectional routing throughput and 144 Mbps of total simultaneous up/downlink throughput. It also maxed out our Maximum Simultaneous Connections test at 200 connections.
The D-Link DIR-615 has been added to the Router Charts and will be added to the Wireless Charts shortly. This is D-Link's least-expensive draft 802.11n router.
Latest word, direct from D-Link, is that the troubled dual-band draft 11n router has not been discontinued, as previously rumored. After first encountering problems in initial shipments that caused D-Link to recall and replace those faulty units, the restocking of retail shelves is now delayed "due to a component" (not being available).
D-Link has no firm date for the resumption of shipments.But they said they would update us when they do.
At the rate D-Link is going, it might as well put a bullet in this product and move on. The company hasn't even fully recovered from its recall of the product for an assembly error. And now the much-delayed dual-band draft 11n router seems to have disappeared from web retailers' shelves.
A Pricegrabber search returns a "no sellers listed for this product" and the product has disappeared completely from NewEgg.
We've asked D-Link for comment and will post an update when we hear back.
D-Link today announced the expansion of its "Green Ethernet" switch line with the addition of 16 and 24 port unmanaged gigabit models.
New hardware revisions of the DGS-1016D 16-port and DGS-1024 24-port unmanaged gigabit switches now support the same power-saving features introduced on the DGS-2205 and DGS-2208 5 and 8 port switches last October.
