Page 7: Introduction
Congratulations on the purchase of the NETGEAR Smart Switch. The NETGEAR Smart Switch is a state-of-the-art, high-performance, IEEE-compliant network solution designed for users who require a large number of ports and want the power of Gigabit connectivity to eliminate bottlenecks, boost performance, and increase productivity. To simplify installation, the switch is shipped ready for use out of the box. -
Page 8: Features
Initial discovery of the switch on the network requires the Smart Wizard Discovery program, a utility that runs on a PC. The Smart Switch can be free-standing, or rack mounted in a wiring closet or equipment room. It is IEEE-compliant and offers low latency for high-speed networking. All ports can automatically negotiate to the highest speed. -

Page 13: Led Designations
• System LEDs Figure 2-4 illustrates the NETGEAR GS724T Smart Switch back panel: Figure 2-4 The back panel contains the following: • A 100-240VAC/50-60 Hz universal input, which is a standard AC power receptacle for accommodating the supplied power cord. -
Page 14: System Leds
Device Hardware Interfaces RJ-45 Ports RJ-45 ports are auto-sensing ports. When inserting a cable into an RJ-45 port, the switch automatically ascertains the maximum speed (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) and duplex mode (half- duplex or full-duplex) of the attached device. All ports support only unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable terminated with an 8-pin RJ-45 plug. -
Page 15: Sfp Gbic Module
The GBIC module bays accommodate standard SFP GBIC modules, such as the AGM731F, AGM732F, or AGM733 from NETGEAR, allowing fiber connections on the network. The module bay is a combo port, sharing a connection with an RJ-45 port. Being a combo port, only one type of connection can be active at any given time. -
Page 16: Applications
Desktop Switching The NETGEAR Smart Switch can be used as a desktop switch to build a small network that enables users to have 1000 Mbps access to a file server. With full-duplex enabled, the switch port connected to the server or PC can provide 2000 Mbps throughput. -

Step 2: Installing the Switch The NETGEAR Smart Switch can be installed on a flat surface or in a standard 19-inch rack. Installing the Switch on a Flat Surface The switch ships with four self-adhesive rubber footpads. Stick one rubber footpad on each of the four concave spaces on the bottom of the switch. -
Page 19: Step 3: Checking The Installation
5. Tighten the screws with a #2 Phillips screwdriver to secure the switch in the rack. Figure 4-1 Step 3: Checking the Installation Before applying power perform the following: • Inspect the equipment thoroughly. • Verify that all cables are installed correctly. -
Page 20: Step 4: Connecting Devices To The Switch
Step 4: Connecting Devices to the Switch The following procedure describes how to connect PCs to the switch’s RJ-45 ports. The NETGEAR Smart Switch contains Auto Uplink™ technology, which allows the attaching of devices using either straight-through or crossover cables. -
Page 21: Step 6: Applying Ac Power
Figure 4-3 Step 6: Applying AC Power NETGEAR Smart Switch does not have an ON/OFF switch. The method of applying or removing AC power is by connecting or disconnecting the power cord. Before connecting the power cord, select an AC outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch, which can turn off power to the switch. -
Page 22: Step 7: Managing The Switch Using A Web Browser Or The Pc Utility
Step 7: Managing the Switch using a Web Browser or the PC Utility The NETGEAR Smart Switch contains software for viewing, changing, and monitoring the way it works. This management software is not required for the switch to work. The ports can be used without using the management software. -

AC power from the switch and then reapply AC power. If the problem continues, contact NETGEAR technical support. In North America, call 1-888-NETGEAR. If you are outside of North America, please refer to the support information card included with your product. -
Page 25: Auto-Negotiation
The RJ-45 ports negotiate the correct duplex mode and speed if the device at the other end of the link supports auto negotiation. If the device does not support auto negotiation, the switch only determines the speed correctly and the duplex mode defaults to half-duplex. -
