Performance of ProSafe smart Switches

The most prominent feature of a smart switch is its ability to expand management capabilities to comprehensively improve network performance and responsiveness, allowing users to enjoy a free network environment. The increasing network scale or complexity makes management more difficult, greatly reducing network performance and user satisfaction. With basic management features, you can increase network performance and reliability, accelerate fault resolution, enhance security, and control administrators. The NETGEARProSafe smart Ethernet switch is designed for commercial networks that want to effectively control their growth. It eliminates the cost and complexity of implementing full Layer 2/3 Switch management.

The powerful NETGEARProSafe smart switch fills the gap between the non-network management and the all-Network Management Switch, providing a very valuable "today-and-Tomorrow" network. the price is the same as that of a non-NMS switch. it provides practical features such as centralized control, monitoring, and troubleshooting-over expensive, based on traditional fully-managed switch performance.

NETGEARProSafe smart switch security and connection are very easy. The operation on the front panel of the device chassis is the same as that on a non-Network-connected device. Gigabit and Fast Ethernet ports can form a star-type structure or Chrysanthemum chain stack. You can use a browser for quick configuration as necessary management. The NETGEARProSafe smart switch is perfect for adding basic management features to your non-NMS network.

Install the NETGEARProSafe smart switch wherever you are using a non-NMS switch. The basic management features optimize your network, differentiate priorities and secure network transmission. The management feature of NETGEARProSafe smart switch highlights provides an idealized security network that is constantly growing, protected, and controlled. No fees or management costs are required for the implementation of Layer 2 or Layer 3 network-wide switches.

Expand your fully manageable Network

A fully-managed network has been deployed, and the NETGEARProSafe smart switch is used to expand management capabilities at a better price, comprehensively improve network performance and response, and reduce the budget.

Smart features

Network applications require more load and operations for your network. And you rely on the network to transmit the necessary information to maintain your business operation. Vswitches with powerful features can improve performance, but they may not be the most cost-effective method. The NETGEARProSafe smart switch provides a more load-tolerant solution.

When the network scale is expanded from 12 users to hundreds of users, the ProSafe smart switch can provide the features required for most growth networks. Network Monitoring, configuration, PortTrunking link aggregation, SpanningTree (STP), Port-Based VLAN, 802.1qvlan, Prioritization traffic priority, SNMP protocol.

These features also serve to expand your existing network that can be managed. ProSafe smart switch porttrunking, VLAN, STP, packet priority, SNMP, and other performance, improve the capacity, functions, and performance of some manageable networks. The ProSafe smart switch is offered at a non-NMS price (value-added), which gives you the features required to expand your network that can be managed.

Easy to use

The NETGEARProSafe smart switch is very easy to use. You can insert it into your network like an unmanaged switch. All port operations are performed from the front of the chassis-No configuration is required. If you need its management features, the "smart Configuration Wizard software" will help you easily set and manage them from the beginning to the end. It can automatically collect all smart switches in the network, set the DHCP Client mode, and upgrade the firmware of all the ProSafe smart switches in your network with just a few clicks.

The WEB-based management of ProSafe smart switches is simple and intuitive, eliminating complicated command line interface (CLI) and required professional training courses. By using your WEB browser, You can see events on the network. When the network needs to be optimized-to increase performance or security-you can use a WEB browser to set VLAN transmission priorities and port aggregation. For better security, the ProSafe smart switch can restrict access to the specified IP address. In addition, you can use NETGEARNMS100 network management software based on the SNMP protocol to centrally manage all network management switches and these smart switches in your network.

Like All NETGEAR products, all ports in the ProSafe smart switch series support AutoUpLink™Adaptive and self-Negotiation means that you can achieve maximum performance without using dedicated cables, so that your network investment can adapt to industrial standards-and support any operating system in the real environment, including Macs, PCs, Linux and UNIX.

High Performance

Growth-oriented commercial networks can benefit from superior performance and meet the needs of expanding networks. all ProSafe smart switches provide low-latency switching with high-capacity backboards and high-processing capabilities. configure parameters and the optimal connection speed-10, 100, or Mbit/s through self-negotiation between gigabit and Mbit/s Ethernet ports. the hot swapping feature of some module mini-GBIC (SFP) slots is suitable for optical fiber connections. NETGEAR combines real high performance and reliability to maximize network throughput and efficiency.

Ready for management

Network growth and high-bandwidth applications increase network requirements. Management features help control and resolve network faults. Enhances performance and security, helps network growth, and minimizes disconnection time. Why NETGEARProSafe smart switch

The front operation of the NETGEARProSafe smart switch chassis is the same as that of a non-NMS switch-the features of network management are there when you need it. If you want some critical network management performance or you need to expand your network that can be managed within a tight budget, NETGEAR's best-selling ProSafe smart switch is your best choice, because you have obtained the network management feature at the price of a non-network management switch.

Outstanding value: the most high performance and enhanced capacity are provided by the popular management features at the price of non-network management, which is suitable for networks that can be managed by network management and non-network management.

Easy to use: similar to all non-NMS switches, the ProSafe smart switch operates on the front of the chassis and is not a NMS switch. The smart Installation Wizard and browser-based graphical interface make configuration easier.

Strong: All ProSafe smart switches have high bandwidth-gigabit and Fast Ethernet ports-and true NETGEAR product reliability.
