NETGEAR ProSafe Smart Switches fill the gap between unmanaged and fully managed switches. The family of ProSafe Smart Switches is designed for growing businesses that want control over their network without the cost and complexity of a full Layer 2 management implementation. These PoE-capable Smart Switches, the GS724TP and GS748TP, provide power and data using built-in IEEE 802.3af PoE on all 24 or 48 ports. In addition, they offer an intuitive Webbased management tool for quick and easy deployment and configuration making it ideal for deploying access points, VoIP phones and IP-based surveillance cameras.

Netgear GS724TP ProSafe 24-Port 10/100/1000 Smart PoE Switch with 2 Combo Gigabit Copper/SFP Slots & Web-based Configuration

The Netgear GS724TP and GS748TP are equipped with highly advanced features such as access control lists (ACL), 802.1x port authentication, enhanced QoS, rate limiting and IGMP snooping among others to provide a small and medium-sized business with a network that is geared for growth, while providing scalability and reliability. With the utility of 24 or 48 10/100/1000 Mbps ports, two or four combination (copper/hot-swappable small form-factor pluggable (SFP)) Gigabit ports for optional fiber connectivity, growing business networks, classrooms and workgroups can benefit from superior performance and keep up with expanding network needs. These high-performing switches feature a non-blocking wire-speed architecture with a 48 Gbps or 96 Gbps switching capacity for maximum data throughput.

Netgear GS724TP Features

Full Featured, Flexible Power over Ethernet (PoE)

With a total power budget of 192 Watts for the GS724TP and 384 Watts for the GS748TP, customers can choose to plug in up to 48 802.3af IP-based devices. Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), optimizes the installation and power management of network devices such as wireless access points (AP), Voice over IP (VoIP) phones, and IP-based surveillance cameras. Power-over-Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) capabilities reduce installation time and costs for many new network productivity devices. Free your wireless AP deployments and IP cameras from the restrictions of power outlet proximity using a standard Cat 5 cable. Enable uninterruptible power supply for all your PoE devices by powering your switch from a UPS device.

Advanced Security

These switches also provide advanced features that provide more robust security to the SMBs.

These include:

• 802.1x for authentication
• ACL filtering to permit or deny traffic based on MAC or IP addresses.
