Netgear 3 x Pro Safe 48 Port 10/100/1000 Smart Stackable Switches (3 x Switches in the same box) Gigabit Stackable Smart Switches Enable Businesses to Grow with Ease Growing companies rely on their network to provide the foundation for essential business applications: mission-critical data applications, security, Voice over IP (Vo IP), video-conferencing & much more. Businesses that are growing rapidly want full-featured network switches that can accommodate growth, support the full range of network applications & secure the network without the overhead & complexity of fully-managed switches. The Pro Safe Gigabit Stackable Smart Switch family delivers the scalability, flexibility, reliability, & performance growing small & medium-sized businesses need in an affordable & easy-to-manage package. A first in the industry, each Pro Safe Gigabit Stackable Smart Switch comes with 24 or 48 10/100/1000 Mbps ports with four shared SFP ports that provide high performance Fibre connections for bandwidth-intensive applications like ERP & large file transfers. In addition, two dedicated ports on the rear of the switch provide a 10 Gbps, dual-ring, highly redundant stacking bus that accommodates growth & offers the highest level of resiliency, thus allowing you to stack up to six switches or 288 10/100/1000 Mbps ports
- & easily manage them all with a single IP address. Finally, these switches come with a complete suite of advanced features for more robust security, higher quality of service & high availability. This switch is equipped with highly advanced features such as access control lists (ACL), 802.1x port authentication, enhanced Qo S, rate limiting & IGMP snooping among others to provide a small & mediumsized business with a network that is geared for growth while providing scalability & reliability. An intuitive, Web-browser interface provides simple yet comprehensive management, making it a snap to fully realize the potential of the rich feature-set offered by these switches. Why buy fullymanaged stackable network switches designed & priced for the enterprise? NETGEAR Pro Safe Gigabit Stackable Smart Switches are designed for small & medium-sized growing businesses. Scalability & High Availability Each Pro Safe Gigabit Stackable Smart Switch comes with 2 dedicated high-speed stacking ports on the rear of the switch providing 10 Gbps of bandwidth. Stack as many as six switches as you grow, & yet maintain high-speed connectivity across the stack with stacking cables. This stacking technology also provides several high-availability features to ensure business continuity:
- Resiliency: Due to redundant stacking port connections, there is an automatic fail-over in case any switch in the stack fails, with rapid reconfiguration, thus preventing network downtime.
- Hot-swappable: All switches in the stack are hot-swappable, & can be integrated or removed without disrupting the network. Advanced Security These switches also provide advanced features that provide more robust security to SMBs. These include:
- 802.1x for authentication
- ACL filtering to permit or deny traffic based on MAC addresses or IP addresses. Advanced Quality of Service (Qo S) Priority queuing ensures high-priority traffic gets delivered efficiently, even during congestion from high traffic bursts. Companies implementing network telephony or video conferencing, for example, need to be able to prioritize such voice & video traffic & other real-time applications over less latency-sensitive traffic to ensure reliability & quality. The ability to prioritize traffic ensures quality of latency-sensitive services & applications despite increasing traffic loads. The Pro Safe Gigabit Stackable Smart Switches provide an extensive set of Qo S
Features:
- 802.1p-based prioritization
- Layer 3-based (DSCP) prioritization
- Rate-limiting
- TCP/UDP-based prioritization Smart" Management Features Manage all Pro Safe Gigabit Stackable Smart Switches as though they are one unit from an easy-to-use Web console that can be used to configure all features, as well as monitor & trouble-shoot. These switches also have SNMP (v 1, 2 & 3) to collect & track data to monitor the network health, as well as manage devices, & more easily enforce critical IT controls & policies. SNMP v 2c is most commonly deployed, as it provides better reporting capabilities than SNMP v 1. Companies interested in more robust security may opt for SNMP v 3, which provides data encryption. All Pro Safe Gigabit Stackable Smart Switches provide world-class reliability with a NETGEAR Lifetime Warranty & optional Pro Support Maintenance Packages. These switches are optimized for Pro Safe Network Management Software (NMS100) & works with other SNMP-based management software.
