sensing plus Auto Uplink™ on every port. Two hot-swappable Small Form factor Pluggable (SFP)**
GBIC slots provide optional fiber connectivity for greater distance.
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.
Twenty-four 10/100/1000 ports deliver non-blocking, full-speed packet forwarding with 48 Gbps
