Introduction

The NETGEAR Smart Switch is a state-of-the-art, high-performance, IEEE-compliant network
solution designed for users who require a large number of ports and want the power of Gigabit
connectivity to eliminate bottlenecks, boost performance, and increase productivity. To simplify
installation, the switch is shipped ready for use out of the box.

This chapter serves as an introduction to the GS700TPS Smart Switch and provides the following
information:

• “Overview”

• “Switch Features”

• “Package Contents”

Overview

This Installation Guide is for the following NETGEAR Smart Switches:

• GS724TPS - This product offers support for 24 ports of 10/100/1000M (Base-T) and four
Form-factor slots which support 10/100/1000 (1000Base-SX/LX/FX) SFP. This product
supports the added feature of Power over Ethernet (PoE).

• GS748TPS - This product offers support for 48 ports of 10/100/1000M (Base-T) and four
Form-factor slots which support 10/100/1000 (1000Base-SX/LX/FX) SFP. This product
supports the added feature of Power over Ethernet (PoE).

You can make high-speed connections using the Gigabit ports. For example:

• Connecting to a network backbone

• Linking to high-speed servers

• Providing 10/100/1000 copper and fiber connectivity

The GS700TPS Smart 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), you can view the switch’s many features and use
them 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 Smart
Wizard Discovery program, a utility that runs on a PC.

The GS700TPS Smart Switch can be free-standing, or rack mounted in a wiring closet or
equipment room. 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- or full-duplex mode. The maximum segment length is 328 feet (100
meters) over Category 5 Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP) cable, but much longer for fiber
connections using SFP GBIC modules.

1-2 Introduction

v1.0, April 2009

GS700TPS Smart Switch

The NETGEAR Smart Switch can be used as a desktop to build a small network that enables 1000
Mbps access to a file server. With full-duplex enabled, the switch port connected to the server or
PC can provide 2000 Mbps throughput.

Switch Features

The following list identifies the key features of the NETGEAR Smart Switch.

• On the GS700TPS Smart Switch device there are 4
Gigabit Ethernet switching ports, four of which are Combo ports.

8 RJ-45 ports 10/100/1000M auto sensing

GS700TPS Smart Switch

• Four Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) GBIC slots, which function as combo ports. Combo
ports are single ports with two physical connections, SFP fiber and RJ-45 copper. The RJ-45
copper ports corresponding to the Combo ports are the four 10/100/1000M auto-sensing Giga
switching ports on each device.

• Two dedicated high speed stacking ports, with minimum stacking bandwidth of 20 Gbps
(aggregate, bi-directional) via the device’s HX Stack ports.

• The following SFP types are supported:

• 1000Base-SX

• 1000Base-LX

• 100Base-FX

• The device supports full Netgear Smart Switch functionality.

• The device provides full compatibility with IEEE standards:

• IEEE 802.3i, (10Base-T)

• IEEE 802.3u (100Base-TX, 100Base-FX)

• IEEE 802.3x (Full-duplex flow control)

• IEEE 802.3ab (1000Base-T)

• IEEE 802.3z (1000Base-X)

• IEEE 802.3at (DTE Power via MDI) (Port 1 - 4)

• Auto-sensing 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 8K Media Access Control (MAC) addresses.

• Full- and half-duplex functions for all 10/100/1000 Mbps ports.

• Store-and-Forward transmission to remove bad packets from the network.

• Full-duplex IEEE 802.3x pause frame flow control.

• Active flow control to minimize packet loss/frame drops.

• Half-duplex back-pressure control.

• Per port LEDs, System LEDs.

• Internal power supply.
