Unlock your Network Potential with 1-Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit 5-Speed Networking Switches
Revolutionary 5-speed 1-Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit technology built in the NETGEAR multi-speed switches allows your devices to speed past the Gigabit barrier.

With the growth of virtualization, flash Storage, 4K videos , video streaming and IP surveillance, SMB networks need to extend beyond 1 Gigabit barrier. The 1-Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit Smart Managed Plus series from NETGEAR presents the right solution for this requirement; delivering unprecedented 1-Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit bandwith at an affordable cost.

Each port automatically detects which speed is needed by the connected device and provides the adequate speed. As opposed to regular 1-Gigabit switches that will only provide 1-Gigabit connectivity to any device that require less than 1-Gigabit, the XS512EM and XS724EM gives the exact speed required, no downgrade. Also, the new NETGEAR Multi-speed switch ports can be connected with regular Cat5E Ethernet cables, without the need to upgrade to Cat6/Cat6A wiring, therefore reducing wiring costs and hassle
