Product Description

The NETGEAR GS728TPv3 (GS728TP-300EUS) 24-Port Smart Managed Rackmount Gigabit PoE+ Switch offers full 24-port PoE+ support, providing a 190W power budget across all ports. This switch is ideal for cost-conscious organisations aiming to deploy high-power PoE devices such as VoIP phones, IP cameras, video-over-IP endpoints, and wireless access points efficiently and securely.

Key Features

• Twenty four (24) 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet ports

• Four (4) 1000BASE-X fibre SFP ports

• Layer 3 static routing with 32 routes (IPv4 and IPv6)

• Advanced VLAN and Private VLAN support

• Auto denial-of-service (DoS) prevention

• IGMP Snooping and Querier for multicast optimisation

• Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) for large L2 multicast networks

• Dynamic ARP for enhanced security

• Rate limiting and priority queuing

• Port mirroring for network monitoring

• Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az)

• Cable test feature

• SNMP v1, v2c, v3 and RMON support

The GS728TPv3 combines advanced Layer 2 network features such as VLANs and PoE scheduling with Layer 3 static routing, LACP link aggregation, DiffServ QoS, Private VLANs, Multicast VLAN Registration, and Spanning Tree, making it ideal for advanced small business networks seeking secure, scalable connectivity.

Hardware Features

1000BASE-T Copper Ethernet PoE+ connections: Supports high-density VoIP, surveillance, and WiFi AP deployments with scalability for future growth.

1000BASE-X fibre SFP ports: Four dedicated Gigabit SFP ports for network core aggregation, supporting fibre and copper modules with link aggregation and failover.

24-Port PoE with 190W budget: Provides sufficient power for multiple high-demand devices over a single cable.

Low Acoustics: Temperature-controlled fan speed reduces noise to 26.80dBA at 25°C ambient.

Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az): Optimises power consumption to reduce operational costs.

Software Features

Comprehensive IPv6 Support: Management, mACL, and QoS features ensure future-proof network investment.

IPv4 & IPv6 Static Routing: Efficient internal network segmentation through switch-based routing.

Robust Security: 802.1x authentication, port-based locked MAC, ACL filtering for traffic control, and malware prevention.

Comprehensive QoS: Prioritisation based on port, 802.1p, and DSCP; ingress/egress rate limiting for mission-critical traffic.

Auto-VoIP, Auto-Voice VLAN, Auto-Video VLAN: Simplifies multi-vendor IP telephone deployments and optimises traffic for voice and video.

IGMP and MLD Snooping with Fast Leave: Efficient multicast traffic management reducing network load.

Protected Ports: Prevent traffic exchange between protected ports to secure sensitive conversations and data.

DHCP Snooping and Dynamic ARP Inspection: Maintains IP allocation integrity and eliminates malicious traffic.

Dynamic VLAN Assignment (RADIUS): Allows seamless user mobility with VLAN assignment based on authentication.

Dual Firmware Images: Enables transparent firmware updates with minimal service interruption.
