Introduction

This hardware installation guide complements the installation guide that came with your switch and applies to the NETGEAR 24-Port Gigabit (Hi-Power) PoE+ Ethernet Smart Managed Pro Switch with 2 SFP Ports and Cloud Management, model GS724TPv2 and GS724TPP.
This hardware installation guide complements the installation guide that came with your switch and applies the following NETGEAR Smart Managed Pro switch models:
GS724TPv2. 24-Port Gigabit PoE+ Ethernet Smart Managed Pro Switch with 2 SFP
• Ports and Cloud Management
GS724TPP. 24-Port Gigabit Hi-Power PoE+ Ethernet Smart Managed Pro Switch
• with 2 SFP Ports and Cloud Management
In this guide, both models are referred to as the switch.
The switch provides twenty-four Gigabit RJ-45 copper PoE+ ports with two dedicated SFP fiber ports. Power over Ethernet (PoE) lets you provide power to PoE-capable devices such as WiFi access points, VoIP phones, and IP security cameras so that you do not need to use power supplies for those devices. The switch can supply up to 30W PoE+ (IEEE 802.3at) to each port. The maximum PoE power budget across all active PoE+ ports is 190W for model GS724TPv2 and 380W for model GS724TPP.
This chapter serves as an introduction to the switch and includes the following sections:
• Overview
• Management options
• Features
• Safety instructions and warnings

24-Port Gigabit (Hi-Power) PoE+ Ethernet Smart Managed Pro Switch with 2 SFP Ports

Overview

The switch provides twenty-four 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 copper ports that support nonstop 10/100/1000M Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks. All RJ-45 ports support PoE+. Two additional ports can accept small form-factor pluggable (SFP) gigabit interface converters (GBICs) for 1G fiber connectivity.
Note: For information about application samples, see Applications on page 19.
You can install the switch freestanding or rack mounted in a wiring closet or equipment room. The switch is IEEE compliant and offers low latency. All ports can automatically negotiate to the highest speed, which makes the switch very suitable for a mixed environment with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet.
Use Category 5e (Cat 5e) or higher-rated Ethernet cables terminated with RJ-45 connectors to make Gigabit connections.

Management options

The switch provides management options that let you discover the switch on the network and configure, monitor, and control the switch:
Local browser–based management interface. By default, the management mode
• of the switch is set to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface, which lets you access the local browser–based management interface (in this guide referred to as the local browser interface). In this mode, you can change all settings of the switch. For more information about the local browser interface, see the user manual, which you can download from netgear.com/support/download/.
Note: If you plan to use the NETGEAR Insight app or Insight Cloud portal to manage the switch, we recommend that you do not use the local browser interface to change settings that are Insight manageable because they would not be synchronized with Insight or to the network location and other devices to which you assigned the switch.
NETGEAR Insight app and Insight Cloud portal. If you set the management mode
• of the switch to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal, you can use the following applications to manage the switch remotely:
- NETGEAR Insight app. With the NETGEAR Insight app, you can discover the
switch on the network and add the switch to the NETGEAR Insight app so that you can set up the switch in the network and manage and monitor the switch remotely from your smartphone or tablet. You can choose from four methods to
Hardware Installation Guide6Introduction
24-Port Gigabit (Hi-Power) PoE+ Ethernet Smart Managed Pro Switch with 2 SFP Ports
add the switch to the NETGEAR Insight app: You can scan your network for the switch, scan the QR code or the barcode of the switch, or add the serial number of the switch.
- Insight Cloud portal. As an Insight Premium or Insight Pro subscriber, you can
use the NETGEAR Insight Cloud portal to set up the switch in the network, perform advanced remote setup, configuration, and management, monitor the switch, analyze the switch and network usage, and, if necessary, troubleshoot the switch and the network.
For more information about NETGEAR Insight, visit netgear.com/insight and see the NETGEAR knowledge base articles at netgear.com/support.
By default, the management mode is set to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface (which is the same as the local browser interface). Note the following about changing the management mode:
Changing to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal mode. The
• first time that you change to this mode, the switch is set to factory default settings so that you can manage the switch using the Insight app or the Insight Cloud portal.
However, if you added the switch to a network on the Insight app or Insight portal before, all Insight-manageable device settings are returned to the last configuration saved on the cloud server, including the switch password (that is, the password is reset to the Insight network password).
Note: If you use the NETGEAR Insight app or the Insight Cloud portal, you can temporarily change the management mode of the switch back to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface and access the local browser interface for settings that are not Insight-manageable, for complex tasks such as integrating with an existing network of devices that are not managed through Insight, and for debugging purposes. When you are done, you can change the management mode back to NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal.
Changing back to Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface mode. The
• NETGEAR Insight Mobile App and Insight Cloud Portal management mode is disabled and the current Insight-manageable device settings are saved to the cloud server. Any changes that you make using the Directly Connect to Web Browser Interface management mode are not saved to the cloud server.
