High-speed, Layer 2 Managed Gigabit Switching with Static Routing
NETGEAR delivers wirespeed Gigabit performance and a full set of Layer 2 management 
features, as well as static routing with unsurpassed affordability. This next-generation,  
high-speed switch delivers maximum throughput where you need it — to high-performance 
workgroups at the edge of the network, or as a backbone for Fast Ethernet switches and 
high-speed servers in demanding small networks. The non-blocking design offers full Gigabit 
throughput simultaneously to all 24 or 48 10/100/1000 ports to ensure reliable performance. 
Flexible fiber connectivity is enabled through four combination small form-factor pluggable 
(SFP)** gigabit interfaces. Layer 2 management functionality delivers reliability, control, and 
availability. Static routing enables inter-VLAN routing and provides a faster network and more 
effective bandwidth management. Access control lists (L2-L4) provide robust security, while L2-L4 
based QoS provides enhanced traffic management capabilities. The cost-effective NETGEAR 
ProSafe 24- and 48-port Gigabit L2 Managed Switch creates a more productive — and future-
proof — network. With increasing bandwidth requirements from applications such as voice, 
video, database management, and other services that slow throughput and response time, you 
can unleash your network and enable maximum productivity with Gigabit Ethernet for today’s 
high-performance environments.
Optimize bandwidth, security, and control with full Layer 2 management capabilities. Network 
administrators can use any combination of these features to ensure uptime, availability, 
bandwidth and throughput.
Powerful
Full 24 or 48 10/100/1000 ports and a non-blocking design provide wire speed throughput 
and maximum bandwidth for the most demanding network environments. Small form-factor 
pluggable (SFP) modules deliver choice in 1000Base-SX, 1000Base-LX or 1000Base-ZX 
(70Km) optics. The Layer 2 management features optimize bandwidth throughout the network 
– delivering Gigabit performance to systems, applications, and services. Take advantage of 
forwarding rates up to 71.4 million pps, and a switching capacity of 96 Gbps.
Easy to Use
Move up to Gigabit power in minutes. Use either of these solutions as a managed switch 
out of the box – just plug and play! All ports are auto-negotiating and support Auto Uplink™ 
technology. Choose from two easy-to-use management interface options –Web interface 
or a command line interface available through console or telnet. Comprehensive remote 
administration capabilities reduce the need for on-site administration. Easy to troubleshoot – 
built-in testing capability locates cable-related network problems.
Manageable
Meet your management needs with SNMP (v1, v2c and v3), RMON, Command Line Interface 
(CLI) and complete Web-based GUI. Advanced features include up to 512 VLANs, DiffServ 
traffic prioritization and 802.1p (QoS) for Voice over IP services (VoIP), broadcast storm 
protection, RADIUS, 802.1x, port trunking, Rapid Spanning Tree, and link aggregation. In 
addition, L2-L4 based ACLs provide robust security, while static routing enables inter-VLAN 
routing for effective bandwidth management. Full Layer 2 implementation allows you to 
configure your network for maximum performance, reliability, and availability. Manageable 
with any popular SNMP-based management software, but optimized for NETGEAR ProSafe 
Network Management Software NMS100. 
Outstanding
These products offer Layer 2 management and full Gigabit power at a compelling price. Use 
at the edge to improve workgroup connections, or at the core to upgrade a Gigabit Ethernet 
backbone — now you can afford the power your network deserves. Like all NETGEAR products, 
everything you need is in the box – including rack-mount kit, power and serial cables, and more.
