PoE budgets that grow with your business!

Fully-integrated cloud-manageable devices

NETGEAR Insight Managed switches are fully-integrated, cloud-manageable devices, and therefore require no additional hardware (cloud keys, network portals, local servers, VPN or proxy appliances etc) to directly connect to the cloud and allow remote management. Just plug the switch into your network and the internet, use the Insight app to discover and add the device to your cloud managed network, and you’re now connected. No additional hardware, no software or server to setup, nothing; just connect and go.

Clean, sleek and whisper quiet designs

Insight Managed Smart Cloud switches have a modern, clean design, with a full complement of LEDs including power, cloud connection, PoE max¹, and fan status, as well as per port connection/link status and PoE power status¹. All models have whisper quiet fan(s), a Kensington lock receptacle, and are rack-mountable with the included rack-mount kit.

Plenty of PoE power for all of your needs

On GC728XP/GC752XP, all 24 and 48 Gigabit Ethernet copper ports support PoE+ (802.3at) with total PoE budgets of 390W (GC728XP) and 505W (GC752XP) for power-hungry devices of today and the future. And now with remote PoE scheduling, you have complete control over your PoE connected devices, all from the Insight management solution!

Dedicated SFP/SFP+ Fiber Uplinks

Dedicated SFP and SFP+ ports provide 1G and 10G fiber uplinks without sacrificing any downlink copper Gigabit Ethernet port, and across long distances. 2 SFP 1G ports per model and additional 2 SFP+ 10G ports provide not only redundant uplinks, but can also build dual redundancy by a trunked uplink with link aggregation and failover.

Advanced L2+/L3 Lite Smart Switch Features

Insight Managed Smart Cloud switches support a full suite of advanced L2+/L3 Lite switching features for everything from a simple network to a highly complex one, and are designed to meet current and future needs of fully converged network. Advanced features include include VLANs, LAGs, QoS, ACLs, IPv6 support, IPv4 & IPv6 Static Routing, IGMP snooping, multicast, STP/RSTP/MSTP, rate limiting, advanced per port PoE controls, PoE scheduling, and more.

Build your network with future in mind

Ensure investment protection and a smooth migration to IPv6-based network without switch replacement with comprehensive IPv6 support for management, QoS, and ACLs. Facilitate fast receiver joins and leaves for multicast streams. Save cost and improve network efficiency by ensuring multicast traffic only reaches designated receivers without the need of an extra multicast router.

Dynamic VLAN Assignment

IP phones and PCs can authenticate on the same port but under different VLAN assignment policies. Users are free to move around and enjoy the same level of network access regardless of their physical location in the network.

Robust Security Features

Build a secured, converged network with all types of traffic by preventing external attacks and blocking malware while allowing secure access for authorized users.

• 802.1x authentication^§
• DHCP Snooping
• Port-based security by locked MAC
• ACL filtering to permit or deny traffic based on MAC and IP addresses

Comprehensive QoS Features

Advanced controls for optimized network performance and better delivery of mission-critical traffic such as voice and video. Ingress and egress rate limiting allows for bandwidth shaping for mitigating network resources constraints or for optimizing guest access bandwidth on the network.

• Port-based or VLAN 802.1p-based prioritization
• Layer 3-based (DSCP) prioritization
• Port-based egress rate limiting

Auto Voice and Auto Video

Automatic Voice over IP prioritization with Auto-VoIP simplifies most complex multi-vendor IP telephones deployments either based on protocols (SIP, H323 and SCCP) or on OUI bytes (default database and user based OUIs) in the phone source MAC address; providing the best class of service to VoIP streams (both data and signaling) over other ordinary traffic by classifying traffic, and enabling correct egress queue configuration. When deployed IP phones are LLDP-MED compliant, the Voice VLAN will use LLDP-MED to pass on the VLAN ID, 802.1P priority and DSCP values to the IP phones, accelerating convergent deployments.

Protected Ports

Ensure no exchange of unicast, broadcast, or multicast traffic between the protected ports on the switch, therefore, improve the security of your converged network where your sensitive phone conversation can stay private and your surveillance video clips can be forwarded to their designated storage device without leakage or alteration.

Port Trunking / Link Aggregation (LAG)

Build up bigger bandwidth to support aggregated uplink/downlink traffic. Automatically configures across Insight Managed devices.

Loop Prevention / Auto DoS Prevention

Detect and prevent accidental network loops and protect against DoS (Denial of Service) attacks.

PoE Timer/Scheduling

Allows IT administrators to increase network security, better utilize network resources and conserve energy by scheduling or remotely controlling on/off of PoE ports.

Port Mirroring

For better and quicker network diagnostics and troubleshooting.
