Switch Features - NETGEAR GS700AT Series Hardware Installation Manual

Switch Features

The following list identifies the key features of the NETGEAR Smart Switch.
• On the GS724AT device there are 24 RJ-45 ports10/100/1000M auto sensing Gigabit Ethernet
switching ports, four of which are Combo ports.
• On the GS748AT device there are 48 RJ-45 ports 10/100/1000M auto sensing Gigabit
Ethernet switching ports, four of which are Combo ports.
• Four Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) GBIC slots, which function as combo ports. Combo
ports are single ports with two physical connections, SFP fiber and RJ-45 copper. The RJ-45
copper ports corresponding to the Combo ports are the four 10/100/1000M auto-sensing Giga
switching ports on each device.
The following SFP types are supported:
• 1000Base-SX
• 1000Base-LX
• The device support full Netgear Smart Switch functionality.
• The device provide full compatibility with IEEE standards:
• IEEE 802.3i, (10Base-T)
• IEEE 802.3u (100Base-TX, 100Base-FX)
• IEEE 802.3x (Full-duplex flow control)
• IEEE 802.3ab (1000Base-T)
• IEEE 802.3z (1000Base-X)
• IEEE 802.3af (DTE Power via MDI)
• Auto-sensing and auto-negotiating capabilities for all ports.
• Auto Uplink™ on all ports to make the right connection.
• Automatic address-learning function to build the packet-forwarding information table. The
table contains up to 4K Media Access Control (MAC) addresses.
• Full- and half-duplex functions for all 10/100/1000 Mbps ports.
• Store-and-Forward transmission to remove bad packets from the network.
• Full-duplex IEEE 802.3x pause frame flow control.
