Chapter 1 Introduction - NETGEAR GC510P Hardware Installation Manual

Introduction
This hardware installation guide is for the following NETGEAR Insight managed switch models:
• 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Insight Managed Smart Cloud Switch with 2 SFP Fiber Ports, Model GC510P
• 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet High-Power PoE+ Insight Managed Smart Cloud Switch with 2 SFP Fiber Ports,
Model GC510PP
The switch provides eight Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 copper ports and two dedicated Gigabit SFP fiber ports.
Both models support Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) on all eight RJ-45 copper ports so that you can let the
switch provide power to devices that are PoE and PoE+ capable, such as WiFi access points, VoIP phones,
and IP security cameras. The switches differ in their maximum PoE power budget:
• Model GC510P. This model can supply up to 30W PoE (IEEE 802.3at) to each port, with a maximum PoE
power budget of 134W across all active PoE+ ports.
• Model GC510PP. This model can supply up to 30W PoE (IEEE 802.3at) to each port, with a maximum PoE
power budget of 195W across all active PoE+ ports.
The hardware installation guide complements the installation guide that came with your switch.
This chapter serves as an introduction to the switch and includes the following sections:
• Overview
