ProSAFE® Click Switches Data Sheet
Your ports and cables where you want them
Today’s networks have increasing numbers of devices attached to them, both
wired and wireless. As wired devices proliferate, it can be dicult to easily
and neatly place networked ports where you want them.
NETGEAR ProSAFE Click Switches™ address this issue with an innovative and
thoughtful hardware design, including the flexible 1-2-3-4 Click mounting
system. The new ProSAFE Click Switches are Gigabit Ethernet switches with
an industry-first, bracket mounting system for easy installation. Available in
either 8- or 16-Gigabit port configurations, their slim design and internal
power supplies enables you to organize wires, secure cables, eliminate bulky
power adapters, and improve the overall appearance of wiring closets,
training facilities, lab benches, conference rooms, and entertainment centers
that require multiple connected devices.
Highlights
• Unique 1-2-3-4 Click mounting system
for exible placement options
• Cable management with provided
retaining strap
• Multi-directional power cable to
optimize placement
• Internal power supply to eliminate
power brick
• 2 USB ports for quick access to charging
tablets or smartphones (GSS108E only)
