GS716T/GS724T Gigabit Smart Switch 
Overview
This Installation Guide is for the following NETGEAR Smart Switches:
GS716T – This product offers support for 16 ports of 10/100/1000 Mbps and two 
Form-factor slots, which support 1000 (1000BASE-SX/LX)/100 Mbps Small Form-factor 
Pluggable (SFP).
GS724T – This product offers support for 24 ports of 10/100/1000 and two Form-factor 
slots, which support 1000 (1000BASE-SX/LX)/100 Mbps SFP.
Using Gigabit ports, high-speed connections can be made to a server or network backbone. 
For example:
Linking to high-speed servers
Providing 10/100/1000 Mbps copper and fiber connectivity
The Smart Switch also provides the benefit of administrative management with a complete 
package of features for the observation, configuration, and control of the network. With a 
Web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI), the switch’s many capabilities can be viewed and 
used in a simple and intuitive manner. The switch’s management features include 
configuration for port and switch information, VLAN for traffic control, port trunking for 
increased bandwidth, IPv6 Management support to enable IPv6 operation over the network 
port, IPv6 QoS, IPv6 ACL and Class of Service (CoS) for traffic prioritization. These features 
provide better understanding and control of the network. Initial discovery of the switch on the 
network requires the Smart Control Center program, a utility that runs on a computer.
The Smart Switch can be free-standing, or rack mounted in a wiring closet or equipment 
room. It is IEEE-compliant and offers low latency for high-speed networking. All ports can 
automatically negotiate to the highest speed. This capability makes the switch ideal for 
environments that have a mix of Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or Gigabit Ethernet devices. In 
addition, all RJ-45 ports operate in half-duplex or full-duplex mode. The maximum segment 
length is 328 feet (100 meters) over Category 5 Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP) cable, but 
much longer for fiber connections using SFP GBIC modules.
