Full 24-port PoE solution plus easy browser-based management
NETGEAR ProSafe Smart Switches fill the gap between unmanaged and fully managed switches. The family of ProSafe Smart Switches is designed for growing businesses that want control over their network without the cost and complexity of a full Layer 2/Layer 3 management implementation. This PoE-capable Smart Switch, the FS728TP, provides power and data using built-in IEEE 802.3af PoE on all 24 ports. In addition, the FS728TP offers an intuitive webbased management tool for quick and easy deployment and configuration making it ideal for deploying access points, VoIP phones and IP-based surveillance cameras. This switch is equipped with highly advanced features such as access control lists (ACL), 802.1x port authentication, enhanced QoS, 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. With the utility of 24 10/100 Mbps ports, four copper 10/100/1000 Mbps ports and two combination (copper/hot-swappable small form-factor pluggable (SFP)) Gigabit ports for optional fiber connectivity, growing business networks, classrooms and workgroups can benefit from superior performance and keep up with expanding network needs. This high-performing switch features a non-blocking wire-speed architecture with an 12.8 Gbps switching capacity for maximum data throughput. All 28 RJ-45 ports automatically negotiate to the highest speed and support Auto Uplink technology to make the right link. -
Full-featured, flexible Power over Ethernet (PoE)
With a total power budget of 195 watts, customers can choose to plug in up to 24 Ethernet or fast Ethernet devices and mix in up to 24 802.3af IP-based devices. Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), optimizes the installation and power management of network devices such as wireless access points (AP), Voice over IP (VoIP) phones, and IP-based surveillance cameras. Power-over-Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) capabilities reduce installation time and costs for many new network productivity devices. Free your wireless AP deployments and IP cameras from the restrictions of power outlet proximity using a standard Cat 5 UTP cable. Enable uninterruptible power supply for all your PoE devices by powering your switch from a UPS device. -
Advanced security
These switches also provide advanced features that provide more robust security to the SMBs. These include 802.1x for authentication and ACL filtering to permit or deny traffic based on MAC and IP addresses. -
Advanced quality of service
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. -
"Smart" management features
Manage all ProSafe Smart Switches as from an easy-to-use web console that can be used to configure all features, as well as monitor and trouble-shoot. These switches also have SNMP (v1, 2 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. These switches are optimized for ProSafe Network Management Software (NMS100) and works with other SNMP-based management software.

Great Value PoE Layer 2 Switch
Reviewed by Gary. Review Posted 19/11/2007
We just started using the Netgear FS728TP switch to run some wireless access points using power of ethernet (PoE). All of the 24 fast ethernet ports support PoE automatically to devices that request it all over standard CAT5 ethernet cabling. You can mix normal devices (PCs/Printers) with PoE devices. The switch supports VLANS so we can separate public and private traffic on the same switch. SNMP support allows remote monitoring of all the important statistics and switch status and the easy to use web interface makes administration really easy with no hard to remember command line stuff.
The switch also supports port trunking, QoS and provides a port monitoring facility for network debugging. A really advanced feature set, great price and easy to use. We love it.

Well recommended
Reviewed by Chris. Review Posted 15/10/2007
Although this switch does have fan noise, I would have to say that a switch of this class is designed more for cabinet mounting, not desktop use.
This is a switch that is great value for money - it will work right out of the box, providing power over ethernet to devices such as VoIP phones, Webcams, etc whilst also offering a vast array of configuration items for the more advanced user such as SNMP, Qos & VLans.
The build quality is excellent as well - this feels solid and includes rack mounting fixings as well.
Overall, a highly recommended switch
