Multi-Gigabit to connect any type of device to a single switch
2-port RJ-45 Multi-Gigabit Ethernet IEEE 802.3bz (NBASE-T) 100M/1G/2.5G/5G
2-port RJ-45 Multi-Gigabit Ethernet IEEE 802.3bz (NBASE-T) 100M/1G/2.5G
4-port RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet 10M/100M/1G
1-port RJ-45 10 Gigabit Ethernet Copper (100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10GBASE-T)
1-port SFP+ 10 Gigabit Ethernet Fiber (1G/10GBASE-X SFP+)
Plenty of headroom with 1G, 2.5G, 5G and even 10G!
Businesses need to be ready for future expansion: with incoming new multispeed devices, their wired network needs to expand its reach and scope to support speeds greater than 1 Gigabit. The IEEE 802.3bz standard paved the way for new 2.5 Gigabit and 5 Gigabit speeds in addition to legacy 1 Gigabit and 10 Gigabit per second. New servers, workstations, storage devices, and motherboards are coming with 802.3bz (NBASE-T) Multi-Gigabit Ethernet for 2.5X to 5X faster speeds up to 100 meters (323 feet) on legacy Cat5E / Cat6 cables.
That is why NETGEAR launched its new 8-Port Multi-Gigabit Smart Managed Pro Switches with 10G Copper/Fiber Uplinks. Each port automatically detects which speed is needed by the connected device and provides the adequate speed. As opposed to regular 10-Gigabit switches that will only provide 1-Gigabit connectivity to any device that require less than 10-Gigabit, the MS510TX and MS510TXPP give the exact speed required, with no downgrade. Also, the new NETGEAR Multi-speed switch ports can connect regular CAT5e Ethernet cables, without the need to upgrade to CAT6 wiring, therefore reducing wiring costs and hassle.
Multi-Gigabit for Future-Proof Deployments
With or without PoE, the switches provide two Multi-Gigabit RJ-45 ports that support 5G, 2.5G, and 1G; another two Multi-Gigabit RJ-45 ports that support 2.5G and 1G; four 1G RJ-45 ports; one dedicated 10G RJ-45 uplink port (which also supports 5G, 2.5G and 1G); and one dedicated SFP+ fiber uplink port that supports 10G and 1G.
