Stackable Smart Switches. The ProSafe Stackable Smart Switches adds the flexibility of economical, modular growth paired with a more robust management feature set and still gives you the ease of use and affordability you expect from ProSafe Smart Switches. Two of the Gigabit Ethernet ports offer the option of fiber connectivity via Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) GBIC slots for long distance links. NETGEAR's ProSafe FS728TS delivers performance and scalability through a 4Gbps, dual-ring, resilient stacking architecture with the ability to mix and match to stack up to six units or 192 10/100 ports - and manage them all at a single IP address! The non-blocking design of the switch delivers simultaneous, full wire-speed, low-latency throughput to all ports. Shipped ready to go straight out of the box, it delivers switching that's easy to set up, stack-up and use.TThe popular intuitive, Web-browser interface offers the Smart Switch management, making it a snap to monitor stack performance, configure ports, even set up port trunks, VLANs, and traffic prioritization. In addition, the ProSafe Stackable Smart Switches expand on the current ProSafe Smart Switch feature set by adding 801.x security, SNMP v2c and v3 support, logging, rate limiting and Layer 3 prioritization. NETGEAR's ProSafe Stackable Smart Switches are value-packed switches targeted at the demands of growing businesses for a network infrastructure solution that delivers performance, scalability, ease-of-use, and affordability.

Advantages: Easy installation, small, sturdy, quiet, auto uplink Disadvantages: Runs quite hot
cables.
Operation
Compatibility: Most recent PC's have at least a single gigabit Ethernet port on them now. Now you can make use of it. Tested fine with Intel Pro/1000 MT cards and nVidia nForce cards
Noise
It contains no fans so operation is completely silent, however, as with all other Netgearswitches, this unit gets quite hot. For peace of mind it would be best to keep it away from sources of heat (I tend to lay an old PII heatsink on the unit just to help with the cooling!)
Troubleshooting
The LED indicators provide you with all the information you could possibly need to help diagnose any connectivity problems - not that you should have any
Conclusion
Very fast, reliable equipment.
With prices for gigabit equipment coming down, now is a great time to upgrade ...
Advantages: Easy to use, easy to install Disadvantages: closeness of the ports.
Netgear are well known for their networking equipment and it is for this reason I want to tell you about a great piece of kit. The 24portswitch.
24ports of networking capability.... But what does that all mean???
Ok, let me tell you about what a network is.
Even the internet is just one big network. it is simply just a collection of computers that are connected together and can communicate. Simple!
But, how do you connect them together? Its not like they shake hands and have a chat is it?
Well in a way, that is what they are doing but using some extra hardware to do this.
To put a computer on a network, it needs a Network interface card or NIC. This plugs into your computer's motherboard. Its basically similar to installing a graphics card or sound card. You then need to connect the computer via the NIC card to ...
