Yet another purchase for the office. The FS524 provides all your networking needs without a high price at £82. As per my other reviews this is another business offering from Netgear with a very high build quality. Strong as an OX you might say.
The FS524 provides all the normal operations of a standard hub but with the adition of 10 or 100MBps intelligent switching. The unit automatically senses what the network speed of a plugged in device is and adjust accordingly. All ports on the 524 are auto sensing for uplinks, so there is no need to be pressing buttons or playing with cables. The other major bonus with the 524 is it comes rack mount ready. Small mounting brackets are provided so you can mount it directly into a standard 19" rack.
The front panel of the 524 is clear and easy to use. There is enough info there to tell you what's going on without having additional LED's meaning nothing.
This is another good offering from Netgear, just does exactly what its supposed to do and nothing else at a bargain price.
Top marks for this, never had a problem with one of these.
