Data Sheet
M5300 series
Page 1 of 38
The NETGEAR® Next-Gen Edge M5300 series consists of
seven fully managed stackable Gigabit Ethernet switches,
with embedded 10 Gigabit Ethernet uplink connectivity.
There are 24-port and 48-port models including Gigabit
copper versions, powerful PoE+ versions with up to 1,520
watts and even a Fiber aggregation solution. They are ideal
for all organizations considering reliable, affordable and simple
10 Gigabit Ethernet backbone architectures. As a proficient
component of converged voice, video and data networking
solutions, NETGEAR M5300 series delivers a resilient access
layer in server rooms for virtualization, campus LAN environments
and commercial buildings. Virtual Chassis stacking technology—
including meshed stacking—scales both the entire network’s
performance and its redundancy.
