48 Port Netgear Switches

One of the well known 48 Port Netgear switches model is the ProSafe 48 Port 10/100 Smart Switch and 2 Gigabit Ports FS750T2. This model is known for its 2 10/100/1000 Mbps copper gigabit ports and 2 Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) GBIC slots. The high density switch offers great value for money by providing easy browser-based management, high port density and great gigabit capability. These features include adding two gigabit uplinks to a growing business, and installing high port density in one unit box.

Capabilities relating to key switch management need to be added for the purpose of cutting down the overall cost of the device. These Netgear switches can simultaneously and quickly deliver all kinds of video, image and multimedia files within no time. Right links are made on the basis of support received from Auto Uplink technology, which is facilitated by 50 shielded RJ-45 ports known for automatically negotiating to the highest speed. Greater distance is obtained by fiber connectivity, which comes from the two hot-swappable Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) GBIC slots.

Simple Smart Switch Management is offered by the intuitive web-browser interface that helps in configuring ports and setting up port trunks. It also facilitates monitoring of switch performance, VLANs and traffic prioritization. Users can manage their Smart Switch by using the SNMP-based software. These switches are easy to install and can be used on a daily basis. Moreover, these Netgear switches help in extending the managed networks and adding basic management to the unmanaged networks. 

The Netgear switches cover swift transfer right from the edge of the network to the core, while delivering full-speed and non-blocking packets. The packet forwarding occurs through the forty-eight 10/100 ports and two Gigabit ports, which are known for powerful performance. Users have the option of obtaining fiber connectivity for greater distance based upon the two SFP GBIC fiber slots.
