NETGEAR’s low-cost, stackable, Fast Ethernet switches deliver maximum throughput & flexibility where you need it — to high-density workgroups at the edge of the network, or in the backbone of small networks. The Pro Safe FSM7226RS is a managed 24-port switch with auto-sensing 10/100 ports & two 10/100/1000 ports. This enables fiber connectivity through two hot-swappable small form-factor pluggable (SFP) Gigabit interfaces. The non-blocking design of the switches delivers simultaneous, full wire-speed, low-latency throughput to all ports. In addition, their 1U rack-mount form factor uses less rack space & provides a lower per-port cost than comparable Fast Ethernet switches. Static routing ensures reliable routing between VLANs & network segmentation where & when you need it, at no additional cost. Plus, two high speed (2.5 Gbps) dedicated stacking ports in the back provide extra bandwidth for stacking application. Features Powerful: In desktop switching environments, wire-speed performance with full Qo S control for all 10/100 interfaces is critical. The 2 Gigabit Ethernet combo interfaces provide unprecedented flexibility, whether you are stacking between switches, attaching bandwidth-thirsty file servers, or aggregating critical data to the core of your network Easy-to-use: Simplify & reduce IT staff workload & mean time to repair with intuitive, GUI-based device configuration, & an industry-standard comm&-line interface (CLI). 2.5 Gbps, high-speed stacking capabilities allow you to build a single IP manageable device with up to eight switches Outstanding Value: With their high-value price point, flexible design, & reduced maintenance requirements, NETGEAR’s Pro Safe 10/100 Layer 2+ Stackable Switch solutions yield a high return on investment, & are ideal for delivering highly reliable, converged voice, video, & data services over a single network infrastructure Work Space Friendly: The switch has a built-in thermal sensor to automatically speed up the fan to increase air flow in warm environments, & slow down the fan to reduce the noise when operating in an office environment
