GS700TS Hardware Installation Guide

The devices support full Netgear Smart Switch functionality and provide full compatibility with the following IEEE standards:

IEEE 802.3i, (10Base-T)

IEEE 802.3u (100Base-TX, 100Base-FX)

IEEE 802.3x (Full-duplex flow control)

IEEE 802.3ab (1000Base-T)

IEEE 802.3z (1000Base-X)

IEEE 802.3af (DTE Power via MDI)

Auto-sensing and auto-negotiating capabilities for all ports.

Auto Uplink™ on all ports to make the right connection.

Automatic address-learning function to build the packet-forwarding information table. The table contains up to 4K Media Access Control (MAC) addresses.

Full- and half-duplex functions for all 10/100/1000 Mbps ports.

Store-and-Forward transmission to remove bad packets from the network.

Full-duplex IEEE 802.3x pause frame flow control.

Active flow control to minimize packet loss/frame drops.

Half-duplex back-pressure control.

Per port LEDs, System LEDs.

Internal power supply.

Standard 1U high, rack mountable19”chassis.

Fan speed control supported (optional).

Stacking

Stacking provides multiple switch management through a single point as if all stack masters are a single unit. All stack masters are accessed through a single IP address through which the stack is managed. The stack can be managed from the following:

Web-based Interface

SNMP Management Station

Devices support stacking up to six units per stack, or can operate as stand-alone units. Up to 192 10/100/1000 ports are supported in a stack
