Device Hardware Interfaces

RJ-45 Ports

RJ-45 ports are auto-sensing ports. When inserting a cable into an RJ-45 port, the switch automatically ascertains the maximum speed (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and duplex mode (half­duplex or full-duplex) of the attached device. All ports support only unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an 8-pin RJ-45 plug.
To simplify the procedure for attaching devices, all RJ-45 ports support Auto Uplink. This technology allows attaching devices to the RJ-45 ports with either straight-through or crossover cables. When inserting a cable into the switch’s RJ-45 port, the switch automatically:
Senses whether the cable is a straight-through or crossover cable.
2-8 Physical Description
v1.0, January 2011
Page 15
GS716T/GS724T Hardware Installation Guide
Determines whether the link to the attached device requires a “normal” connection (such as when connecting the port to a PC) or an “uplink” connection (such as when connecting the port to a router, switch, or hub).
Configures the RJ-45 port to enable communications with the attached device, without requiring user intervention. In this way, the Auto Uplink technology compensates for setting uplink connections, while eliminating concern about whether to use crossover or straight­through cables when attaching devices.

SFP GBIC Module

The GBIC module bays accommodate standard SFP GBIC modules, such as the AGM731F, AGM732F, or AGM733 from NETGEAR, allowing fiber connections on the network. The module bay is a combo port, sharing a connection with an RJ-45 port. Being a combo port, only one type of connection can be active at any given time. For example, both copper and fiber port cannot be used at the same time. If both connectors are plugged in at the same time, the fiber port will be active.
The SFP GBIC bay accommodates a standard SFP GBIC module.

Factory Defaults Button

The Smart Switch has a Factory Default button so that you can remove the current configuration and return the device to its factory settings. When you enable the Factory Default button, all settings, including the password, VLAN settings and port configurations will be removed.

GS716T/GS724T Hardware Installation Guide

Step 7: Managing the Switch using a Web Browser or the PC Utility

The NETGEAR Smart Switch contains software for viewing, changing, and monitoring the way it works. This management software is not required for the switch to work. The ports can be used without using the management software. However, the management software enables the setup of VLAN and Trunking features, and also improves the efficiency of the switch, which results in the improvement of its overall performance as well as the performance of the network.
After powering up the switch for the first time, the Smart Switch can be configured using a Web browser or a utility program called SmartWizard Discovery. For more information about managing the switch, see the GS716T/GS724T Series Software Administration Manual on the Smart Switch Resource CD.
Note: When the device powers up, there is a default IP address already configured on the
device. The default IP address is 192.168.0.239 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0.
