NetGear ProSafe 48-Port Gigabit PoE Stackable Smart Switch 2nd Gen

Enhanced Scalability and Network Convergence for Growing Businesses The ProSAFE® Stackable Smart Switch series is unique in delivering the scalability, reliability, and performance growing small and medium-sized businesses need in an affordable and easy-to-manage package. The second generation of these Stackable Smart Switches consists of 4 models in 28/52-port configurations. Each switch in the series comes with a total of 6 SFP ports for fiber connectivity. Among them, 2 are shared, and the other 4 are dedicated for either stacking or uplinks. This new generation of Stackable Smart Switches offers two models that support PoE+ (up to 30W per port) allowing more flexible network deployments of PoE devices. The ProSAFE® Stackable Switch series offers the flexibility and scalability that will make it easier for growing businesses to seamlessly expand their network capacity. Stacking for Scalability and High Availability The new Generation of Stackable Smart Switches use 2 dedicated ports in the front of the switch for stacking, providing a 10Gbps, dual-ring, highly redundant stacking bus that carries intra-stack traffic and provide highest level of resilience, allowing you to stack up to six switches or up to 300 10/100/1000 Mbps ports, forming a virtual chassis for easy management under a single IP address. This stacking technology also provides several high-availability features to ensure business continuity: Resiliency: Due to redundant stacking port connections, there is an automatic fail-over in case any switch in the stack fails, with rapid reconfiguration, thus preventing network downtime. Hot-swappable: All switches in the stack are hot-swappable, and can be integrated or removed without disrupting the network.
