NETGEAR ProSafe 24 Port 10/100 Smart Switch with Four Gigabit Ports and 24 Ports PoE Enables Deployment of PoE-Capable VoIP Phones, Wireless Access Points and IP Surveillance Cameras
NETGEAR, Inc. (Nasdaq: NTGR), a worldwide provider of technologically advanced, branded networking products, today announced the expansion of its market-leading family of Smart Switches with the launch of the ProSafe 24 Port 10/100 Smart Switch with Four Gigabit Ports and 24 PoE Ports (FS728TP).
With the ability to support 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) on all 24 10/100 ports, the FS728TP is a high-performance, easy-to-use, scalable Smart Switch solution that combines management capabilities, advanced security and Quality of Service (QoS) features, making it an ideal solution for small- and medium-sized businesses deploying cutting-edge PoE-enabled infrastructure devices such as VoIP phones, access points and IP surveillance cameras.
Joining the widest line of Smart Switches in the industry, the new FS728TP delivers affordability, scalability and reliability to growing companies, offering easy management through a Web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) without the cost and complexity of a fully managed Layer 2 solution. A high 195-watt PoE budget enables the FS728TP to simultaneously power PoE-enabled devices on each of the 24 10/100 ports. In addition, the FS728TP delivers high bandwidth through four copper Gigabit Ethernet ports with optional fiber interfaces on two of those ports for longer distances.
Backed by NETGEAR’s industry-leading Limited Lifetime Warranty, the FS728TP is a high-performance switch featuring a non-blocking wire-speed architecture that delivers a 12.8 Gbps switching capacity for maximum data throughput. In addition to an advanced feature set that includes Access Control List (ACL) filtering, 802.1x port authentication, enhanced QoS for prioritisation of voice traffic, rate limiting, and IGMP snooping, the FS728TP also supports SNMP v1, v2 and v3 for management and is optimized for use with ProSafe Network Management Software (NMS100) or other SNMP-based management software.
“The launch of the FS728TP is the ideal solution for businesses and organisations that want to take advantage of the cost-savings, convenience, flexibility, and increased productivity from advanced, converged applications like IP Telephony,” explained Sanjay Kumar, product line manager at NETGEAR.
“Our customers look to us, as the market leader in the smart switch category, to provide a reliable, scalable and advanced platform that enables them to support their infrastructure requirements today and into the future. The FS728TP is the perfect solution for growing, forward-looking businesses delivering advanced capabilities, four Gigabit ports for high-speed connectivity and uplinks, and the ability to support PoE-enabled devices on each of the 24 10/100 ports which can all be easily managed through an intuitive web-based GUI.”
The NETGEAR ProSafe 24 Port 10/100 Smart Switch with 4 Gigabit Ports and 24 PoE Ports (FS728TP) is backed by a limited lifetime warranty and 24/7 technical support. The FS728TP is available via leading direct marketers and value-added resellers at a list price of US$630.
