Netgear ProSafe 48-Port Gigabit Stackable Smart Switch w/4 10G SFP slots

An ideal companion to the rapidly emerging class of 10-gigabit servers, the NETGEAR® ProSafe®
52-port Gigabit Stackable Smart Switch is the industry's first smart switch with 10-gigabit
connectivity – delivering maximum throughput in SMB networks for demanding tasks such as
data replication and backup, virtualization, video on demand and high-volume transaction
processing. At less than half the cost of a managed switch, the ProSafe 52-Port Gigabit Smart
Switch provides 48 gigabit ports for connecting devices to the network, along with four 10GE
SFP+ ports for stacking or uplink to servers. As many as six switches can be stacked for a total
of 288 network ports, with full redundancy for unsurpassed reliability. The GS752TXS offers a
rich enterprise-class feature set, including advanced traffic management and security, yet can be
easily configured and monitored through a web-based graphical user interface.

With a rich set of Layer 2 management features, the GS752TXS is efficient, secure and ready for
the future. Static routing allows for segmentation of the network, with internal routing through
the switch – reserving the router for external traffic routing only, making the entire network more
efficient. Dynamic VLAN assignment increases security by imposing consistent policy and user
credentials across the network, regardless of where users connect. Support for MLD Snooping
greatly increase network efficiency by forwarding multicast traffic to designated hosts only,
rather than flooding multicast packets across all ports. The GS752TXS also comes with full IPv6
support, comprehensive security and advanced multicast management.

The GS752TXS is a scalable solution that grows with a business. Starting with a single switch,
the stack can grow to six switches with a total of 288 network ports. Two out of the four
10-gigabit SFP+ ports on each switch can be used to create the stack, a single logical unit
with up to 40 Gbps of stacking backplane that can be configured and managed as one switch
– speeding up deployment while simplifying administration and maintenance. The stacked
switches can be spread across multiple physical locations, by taking advantage of SFP+ fiberoptic connectivity, making the GS752TXS an ideal solution for remote and branch offices. All
four 10GE ports can be used for network uplinks to servers and storage devices, or split with two
ports for local or distant stacking and two ports for uplinks and link aggregation. Auto failove
