Highlights
Leading the industry with the 2nd generation of 10-Gigabit
Smart Managed Switches, Purposely Designed for SMB with
Cost-Eective 10GBASE-T Connectivity and Advanced L2+/
Layer 3 Lite Features
As a leading provider of network equipment for SMBs, NETGEAR® understands
the importance of reliable and high performance networks. With the growth of
virtualization, cloud-based services and applications like VoIP, video streaming and IP
surveillance, SMB networks need to extend beyond simple reliability to higher speed
and performance. The 10-Gigabit Smart Managed Switch series from NETGEAR
presents the right solution for this requirement; delivering unprecedented non-blocking
10-Gigabit bandwidth at an aordable cost.
The NETGEAR ProSAFE® XS708T, XS716T, XS728T, and XS748T are powerful Smart
Managed Switches that come with 8, 16, 24, or 44 10-Gigabit Copper ports and either
2 Shared (Combo) Copper/SFP+ ports (XS708T/XS716T) or 4 additional Dedicated
SFP+ ports (XS728T/XS748T) for 10G Fiber links. The NETGEAR 10-Gigabit Smart
Managed Switches are purposely designed as a cost-eective way to provide 10G
connections to 10G-capable servers and NAS (Network Attached Storage) systems.
They can be used at the “center of a small business network” or as an aggregation /
access switch in a larger organization including workgroup access, connecting to a
10-Gigabit NETGEAR ProSAFE Fully Managed Switch on one end and extending the
10G connections to the edge. The XS708T and XS716T are also ideal for smaller
workgroups that need high bandwidth for sharing, collaborating, editing, and publishing
high-density content like video or animation.
The ProSAFE 10G Smart Managed Switches
provide comprehensive L2+/Layer 3 Lite
features in order to meet current and
future needs on virtualization, converged
networking and mobility. Some of the main
