Highlights

Industry’s first 10G Smart Switch, purposely designed for SMB with Cost-Effective 10GBase-T connectivity and Advanced L2+ Features

As a leading provider of network equipment for SMBs, NETGEAR understands the importance of a reliable and high performance network to the SMB customers. With the growth of virtualization, cloud-based services and applications like VoIP, video streaming and IP surveillance in the SMB space, SMB networks need to extend beyond simple reliability to higher speed and better performance. The 10G Smart Switch (XS712T) from NETGEAR presents the right solution for this requirement, delivering unprecedented non-blocking 10-Gigabit bandwidth at an affordable cost by using the 10Gbase-T technology.

The NETGEAR XS712T is a powerful smart switch that comes with 12 10-GBase-T copper ports and 2 Combo SFP+ for 10G Fiber links. It is purposely designed as a cost-effective way to provide 10G connections to 10G-capable servers and NAS (Network Attached Storage). It can be used as a 10G access switch, uplink to 10G Managed switch (XSM7224) while expending the 10G connections down to the edge.

XS712T provides comprehensive L2 features in order to meet our customers’ current and future needs on virtualization, converged network and mobility. Some of the main features include:

•AdvancedVLANfeaturessuchasProtocol-basedVLANandMAC-basedVLAN

•AdvancedQoS(QualityofService)with L2-L4awarenessand8priorityqueues
