Netgear FS566

Netgear FS566 ... networks. By integrating high-speed fiber with dual-speed Ethernet switching technology these switches allow you to connect networks in a building or campus, using fiber cables, up to 2km apart without any loss in performance. Once the switch is plugged in no further configuration is required. NETGEAR brings the best in Ethernet switching and fiber technology within a small business budget.

Fiber-to-twisted pair conversion combined with dual speed Ethernet guarantees compatibility with your current 100 Mbps fiber or 10/100 Mbps twisted pair Ethernet network. Switching guarantees top performance and NETGEAR brand guarantees top quality. 6 dual-speed Ethernet ports integrate with either 2 (FS562) or 6 (FS566) 100 Mbps Fiber Ethernet ports to give you high-performance networking over distances of up to 2km with plug-and-play installation. Each twisted pair port provides dedicated 10 or 100 Mbps (megabits per second) bandwidth for connecting one of more PCs, servers, and hubs. In full-duplex mode, each port supports up to 200 Mbps of throughput. If an individual subnetwork is upgraded from 10 to 100 Mbps, the corresponding port on the FS566/562 will change to the higher speed automatically. Once powered on these switches operate with no configuration required. Integrating fiber into the network simply means connecting your current network to the switch with a single Ethernet connection.
