Enabling Small and Mid-sized Businesses to Effectively
Manage Bandwidth and Security
NETGEAR ProSafe® Advanced Smart Switches provide
small and mid-sized companies with a viable alternative
to fully managed switches. This range of switches provide
customers with all the features typically found in fully
managed switches, without adding complexity or additional
costs.
Growing small and mid-sized companies rely on their
network to provide the foundation for essential business
applications: mission-critical data applications, security,
Voice over IP (VoIP), video-conferencing and much more.
They need full-featured network switches that can accommodate
and manage growth, support the full range of network
applications and secure the network without the overhead
and complexity of fully managed switches. The GS724AT
ProSafe Gigabit Smart Switch with Advanced Features
delivers the scalability, flexibility, reliability,
and performance growing small and medium-sized businesses
need in an affordable and easy-to-manage package.
Each ProSafe GS724AT comes with 24 10/100/1000 ports
with four shared SFP ports, respectively, that provide
high performance for bandwidth-intensive applications
like ERP and large file transfers. In addition, this
switch comes with a complete suite of advanced features
for more robust security, higher quality of service
and high availability. This switch is equipped with
highly advanced features such as Access Control Lists
(ACL), 802.1x port authentication, enhanced QoS, Auto-Voice
VLAN, rate limiting and IGMP snooping among others to
provide a small and medium-sized business with a network
that is geared for growth while providing scalability
and reliability.
An intuitive, Web-browser interface provides simple
yet comprehensive management, making it a snap to fully
realize the potential of the rich feature-set offered
by these switches. Why buy fully managed stackable network
switches designed and priced for the enterprise? NETGEAR
ProSafe Gigabit Smart Switch with Advanced Features
is designed for small and growing businesses.
Advanced Security
These switches provide advanced features that provide
more robust security to the SMBs. These include:
- 802.1x for authentication
- ACL filtering to permit or deny traffic based
on MAC, IP and TCP/UDP addresses
Advanced Quality of Service (QoS)
Priority queuing ensures high-priority traffic gets
delivered efficiently, even during congestion from high-traffic
bursts. Companies implementing network telephony or
video conferencing, for example, need to be able to
prioritize such voice and video traffic and other real-time
applications over less latency-sensitive traffic to
ensure reliability and quality. The ability to prioritize
traffic ensures quality of latency-sensitive services
and applications despite increasing traffic loads. The
ProSafe Gigabit Smart Switch with Advanced Features
provide an extensive set of QoS features:
- 802.1p based prioritization
- Layer 3-based (DSCP, TOS) prioritization
- Auto-Voice VLAN
- Rate-limiting
'Smart' Management features
Manage all ProSafe Gigabit Smart Switch with Advanced
Features from an easy-to-use Web console that can be
used to configure all features, as well as monitor and
troubleshoot. These switches also have SNMP (v1, 2c
and 3) to collect and track data to monitor the network
health, as well as manage devices, and more easily enforce
critical IT controls and policies. SNMP v2c is most
commonly deployed, as it provides better reporting capabilities
than SNMP v1. Companies interested in more robust security
may opt for SNMP v3, which provides data encryption.
The ProSafe Gigabit Smart Switch with Advanced Features
provides world-class reliability with a NETGEAR Lifetime
Warranty and optional ProSupport Maintenance Packages.
These switches are optimized for ProSafe Network Management
Software (NMS100) and work with other SNMP-based management
software.
