Introduction
Congratulations on the purchase of your NETGEAR GS110TP Smart PoE Switch. The GS110TP
Smart PoE Switch is a supplement to the Gigabit Advanced Smart Switch family. Available as a
desktop or wall-mountable switch, the GS110TP Smart PoE Switch is not intended to be rackmountable. The GS110TP is a PoE-supportable, low-port switch with two fiber uplinks included.
This chapter serves as an introduction to the GS110TP Smart PoE Switch and provides the
following information:

Overview
This Installation Guide is for the NETGEAR GS110TP Smart PoE Switch. This product offers
support for eight 10/100/1000 Mbps autosensing and two 1000M SFP Gigabit Ethernet switching
ports.
Using Gigabit ports, high-speed connections can be made to a server or network backbone. For
example:
•Linking to high-speed servers
•Providing 10/100/1000 Mbps copper connectivity
The GS110TP Smart PoE Switch also provides the benefit of administrative management with a
complete package of features for the observation, configuration, and control of the network. With a
Web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI), the switch’s many capabilities can be viewed and used
in a simple and intuitive manner. The switch’s management features include configuration for port
and switch information, VLAN for traffic control, port trunking for increased bandwidth, and
Class of Service (CoS) for traffic prioritization. These features provide better understanding and
control of the network. Initial discovery of the switch on the network requires the Netgear Smart
Control Center program, a utility that runs on a PC.

GS110TP Hardware Installation Guide
The GS110TP Smart PoE Switch is a free-standing switch. It is IEEE-compliant and offers low
latency for high-speed networking. All ports can automatically negotiate to the highest speed. This
capability makes the switch ideal for environments that have a mix of Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or
Gigabit Ethernet devices. In addition, all RJ-45 ports operate in half-duplex or full-duplex mode.
The maximum segment length is 328 feet (100 meters) over Category 5 Unshielded Twisted-Pair
(UTP) cable.
Features
The following list identifies the key features of the GS110TP Smart PoE Switch:
•Autosensing and auto-negotiating capabilities for all ports.
•Auto Uplink™ on all ports to make the right connection.
•Automatic address learning function to build the packet-forwarding information table. The
table contains up to 4K Media Access Control (MAC) addresses.
•Store-and-Forward transmission to remove bad packets from the network.
