Netgear Prosafe FSM7226RS

Netgear Prosafe FSM7226RS ... high-density workgroups at the edge of the network, or in the backbone of small networks. The ProSafe FSM7226RS is managed 24-port switch with auto-sensing 10/100 ports and combo 10/100/1000 Mbps or 1GE SFP ports. This enables fiber connectivity through hot-swappable small form-factor pluggable (SFP) gigabit interfaces. The non-blocking design of the switches delivers simultaneous, full wire-speed, low-latency throughput to all ports. In addition, their 1U rack-mount form factor uses less rack space and provides a lower per-port cost than comparable Fast Ethernet switches.

Static routing ensures reliable routing between VLANs and network segmentation where and when you need it, at no additional cost. Plus, high speed HDMI based physical stacking ports (10Gbps stacking speed per switch) in the back provide dedicated bandwidth for stacking up to 8 units and 384 ports in a single stack.

Robust security features include IEEE 802.1x port-based authentication ensuring that only authorized users can access your network and Access Control List (ACL) provides higher level of security for specific traffic and applications. Secure management of the switches is available through Secure Sockets Layer (SSLv3) for the Web GUI and Secure Shell (SSH) for Command Line Interface sessions. These switches have an industry standard command line interface (CLI), which enables customers to cut down their operational expenses. If IT organization is already trained with industry certification, they can configure these NETGEAR switches without going through a recertification process. For workgroup deployments in cost-sensitive organizations that require Layer 2 switching, the flexibility of stacking and additional gigabit capability, NETGEAR's ProSafe FSM7226RS switch delivers the ideal access-edge solution.

Additional enterprise class Layer 3-4 quality of service (QoS) features and 8 priority queues allow prioritization of VoIP, video and critical business applications. Finally, IGMP snooping and IGMP querier features allow businesses to deploy video surveillance, IPTV and other multicast based applications without complexity.
