ProSafe® 10 Gigabit Aggregation Managed Switches

M7100 series

The 10 Gigabit Aggregation M7100 series switches are NETGEAR affordable fully managed switches for 1G/10G server access layer in campus and enterprise networks, and for high-density, high-performance 10GbE backbone architectures. The M7100 series delivers pure line-rate performance for top-of-rack virtualization or convergence, without having to pay the exorbitant acquisition and maintenance costs associated by other networking vendors. NETGEAR 10 Gigabit Aggregation solutions combine latest advances in hardware and software engineering for higher availability, lower latency and stronger security, at a high-value price point. Like all NETGEAR products, the M7100 series delivers more functionality with less difficulty: Auto-iSCSI optimization, Private VLANs and Local Proxy ARP take the complexity out of delivering network services for virtualized servers and 10 Gigabit infrastructures.
