Highlights
Stacking for Scalability and High
Availability
The new generation of Stackable Smart
Switches use 2 dedicated dual-purpose
ports in the front of the switch for stacking
or uplink. The stacking function offers
a 10 Gbps, dual-ring, highly redundant
stacking bus that carries intra-stack
trafc and provide the highest level of
resilience, allowing you to stack up to six
switches or up to 300 10/100/1000 Mbps
ports, forming a virtual chassis for easy
management under a single IP address.
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 reconguration, thus
preventing network downtime
• Hot-swappable: All switches in the
stack are hot-swappable, and can be
integrated or removed without
disrupting the network
Comprehensive and Advanced Feature Sets
These Stackable Smart Switches come
with a complete suite of advanced features
for more robust security, higher quality of
service and high availability. This switch is
equipped with highly advanced features
such as access control lists (ACL), static
routing, rate limiting, IGMP snooping,and
Dynamic VLAN assignment among others
to provide a small and medium-sized
business with a network that is geared for
growth and new network applications.
Friendly to converged network with voice
and video, the Stackable Smart Switches
offers auto voice and auto video features
that automatically congures QoS, security
and VLAN settings for IP phones and IP
cameras.
IPv6 Support
In order to accommodate the move by
internet service providers to IPv6 addresses,
the 2nd Generation of Gigabit Stackable
Smart Switches expand the IPv6 support
beyond management only to QoS, ACL and
multicast. It means that your network will
benet from the IPv6 enhancements and is
future-proofed.
Manageability and Support
There are various easy and convenient
ways to manage the Stackable Smart
Switch. The new Stackable Smart Switches
can be managed by the Smart Control
Center software which comes free with
the switch. With it, you can discover and
manage all NETGEAR Smart Switches
from a central location, conduct mass
conguration and rmware upgrade.
If you have other NETGEAR business
products in your network, you can also use
the NMS200, NETGEAR’s management
platform for discovery and conguration of
all your NETGEAR products in the network.
For peace of mind, these Stackable Smart
Switches are backed by the NETGEAR
Limited Lifetime* Hardware Warranty and
1-year 24x7 Advanced Technical Support*.
2nd Generation Gigabit Stackable
Smart Switches Enhance Scalability
and Network Convergence for
Growing Businesses
The Gigabit Stackable Smart Switch family
is unique in delivering the scalability,
reliability, and performance growing small
and medium-sized businesses need in an
affordable and easy-to manage package.
The NETGEAR Second Generation of
these Stackable Smart Switches consists
of 4 models in 28/52-port conguration
with or without PoE option. They come
with more port density and a total of 6
SFP ports for ber connectivity. Among
them, 2 are shared, and the other 4 are
dedicated for either stacking or uplinks.
This new generation of Stackable Smart
Switches offers more exibility and
scalability that will make it easier and non-
interruptive for growing businesses
to expand their network capacity.
