Netgear Ms510txpp

Companies must be prepared for future growth: The new multispeed devices require wired networks to support speeds beyond 1 Gigabit to avoid becoming a bottleneck. The IEEE 802.3bz standard has paved the way for speeds of 2.5 and 5 Gigabits, in addition to the older speeds of 1 and 10 Gigabits per second. New servers, workstations, storage devices, and motherboards are equipped with 802.3bz (NBASE-T) Multi-Gigabit Ethernet for 2.5 to 5 times faster speeds and for up to 100 meters of conventional Cat5E/Cat6 cabling. Therefore, Netgear has developed the new 8-Port Multi-Gigabit Smart Managed Pro Switch with 10G copper/fiber uplinks. Each port automatically detects the speed required by the connected device and provides exactly that. Unlike typical 10-Gigabit switches that provide 1-Gigabit connectivity to all devices needing less than 10 Gigabits, the MS510TX and MS510TXPP deliver the precise required speed without downgrading. Furthermore, the new Netgear multispeed switch ports can be connected with standard CAT5e network cables without the need for an upgrade to CAT6 cabling. This means lower costs and less effort.
