ProSafe™ 16- and 24-Port Gigabit
Smart Switches Data Sheet
GS716T, GS724T
Management at an Unmanaged Price
Joining NETGEAR’s family of Smart Switches with simple switch management at no extra
cost, these 16- and 24-port Gigabit switches are high on value and capability. With 16 or 24
10/100/1000 Mbps ports, each capable of powering 2000 Mbps of data throughput in full-
duplex mode, plus two optional fiber ports, it provides fast backbone and connects servers or
power users, delivering large amounts of multimedia, image, and video information in no time
at all. Ideal for combining 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps devices it delivers 10/100/1000 automatic
speed and full/half-duplex sensing plus Auto Uplink™ on every port. Two hot-swappable Small
Form factor Pluggable (SFP)** GBIC slots provide optional fiber connectivity for greater distance.
In addition, an intuitive, Web-browser interface offers the simple Smart Switch management,
making it a snap to monitor switch performance, configure ports, even set up port trunks,
VLANs, and traffic prioritization. Alternatively, use SNMP-based software to manage your Smart
Switch. Shipped ready for use straight out of the box, it delivers switching that’s easy to set up
and use. NETGEAR ProSafe Smart Switches are ideal for adding basic management to your
unmanaged networks and extending your managed networks.
High Powered
Sixteen or 24 10/100/1000 ports deliver non-blocking, full-speed packet forwarding with
48 Gbps bandwidth migrates your network to future-proof functionality. Two SFP GBIC fiber
slots provide optional fiber connectivity for greater distance.
Intelligent
Smart Switch capability enables key management features for the value price of an unmanaged
switch. Included are performance monitoring, port configuration, VLAN for traffic control, port
trunking for increased bandwidth, and Class of Service (CoS) for traffic prioritization.
Right Sized
Ideal for growing businesses who want the benefits of management without the cost and
complexity of traditional managed switches.
Easygoing and Durable
Simple to set up and simple to use for effortless network monitoring and troubleshooting. Made
to last, this sturdy switch is housed in a 17-inch metal box and comes with a rack mounting kit.
**Use with NETGEAR ProSafe AGM731F 1000BASE-SX SFP GBIC module, ProSafe AGM732F 1000BASE-LX SFP GBIC
module or ProSafe AGM733 1000BASE-ZX SFP GBIC.
