Netgear ProSafe 24-Port 10/100 Smart Switch with 2 Gigabit Ports

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/Layer 3 management implementation.

This second generation Smart Switch, FS726T, with affordable built-in gigabit power, easily connects to servers or a Gigabit-speed backbone for a non-stop 10/100/1000-enabled network that can quickly deliver large multimedia, image and video files.

With the utility of 24 10/100 Mbps ports, 2 copper 10/100/1000 Mbps ports and an SFP slot for optional fiber connectivity, growing business networks, classrooms and workgroups can benefit from superior performance and keep up with expanding network needs.

This highperformance switch features a non-blocking wire-speed architecture with an 8.8 Gbps switching capacity for maximum data throughput. All 26 RJ-45 ports automatically negotiate to the highest speed and support Auto Uplink technology to make the right link.

In addition, an intuitive, Web-browser interface offers the simple Smart Switch management, making it a snap to monitor switch performance, configure ports, even set up port trunks, VLANs and traffic prioritization.

Alternatively, use SNMP-based software to manage your Smart Switch. Shipped ready for use straight out of the box, it delivers switching that's easy to set up and use. Netgear ProSafe Smart Switches are ideal for adding basic management to your unmanaged networks and extending your managed networks.
