Highlights

• Simple set up with no software or configuration needed.
• Flexible desktop or wall placement.
• Easy monitoring through per port LEDs for port activity and speed.
• Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) support for maxium power savings.
• 8 ports of multi-gig (100Mbps/1Gbps/2.5Gbps) speeds to connect devices instantly and give them each exactly the speed they need.
• Non-blocking switching architecture for maximum throughput at wire speed.
• Fanless, silent operation with desktop and wall mounting options.

More from the Manufacturer

The NETGEAR M4300 Stackable Switch Series delivers L2/L3/L4 and IPv4/IPv6 cost-effective services for mid-enterprise edge with full PoE+ and SMB core deployments with unrivalled ease of use: 10 Gigabit models can seamlessly stack with 1 Gigabit models within the series, enabling spine and leaf line-rate stacking topologies. Non-stop forwarding (NSF) virtual chassis architectures provide advanced High Availability (HA) with hitless failover across the stack. Dual redundant, modular power supplies equipping full width models contribute to business continuity management. Layer 3 feature set includes static, dynamic and policy-based routing - as standard. Perfect for wireless access, unified communications and IP video, the NETGEAR M4300 Switch Series is also ready for the future, with Software-defined Network (SDN) and OpenFlow 1.3 enabled for your network.

• M4300 is flexible enough for mixed stacking between 10 Gigabit and 1 Gigabit models, using any 10G port with any media type (RJ45, SFP+, DAC cables)
• High-availability is another key differentiator for stackable solutions: in case of a master switch failure, NSF and hitless failover ensure the standby switch takes over while forwarding plane continues to forward traffic on the operational stack members without any service interruption

• Two half-width M4300 switches can be paired in a single rack space for redundant Top of Rack installations with Auto-iSCSI prioritization
• 10 Gigabit ports are all independent and 1G backward compatible for progressive transition to 10G speeds

• Entire feature set including L2 switching (multi-tiered access control) and L3 routing (static, RIP, OSPF, VRRP, PIM, PBR) is available without license
• DHCP/BootP innovative auto-installation including firmware and configuration file upload automation

• Line-rate spine and leaf stacking topologies offer multiple possibilities in server rooms, in branch collapsed cores or at the edge of growing networks
• Even if an organization is not ready for SDN, OpenFlow support offers future-ready design for maximum investment protection

• With successive tiering, the Authentication Manager allows for authentication methods per port for a tiered authentication based on configured time-outs
• With BYOD, tiered Dot1x -> MAB -> Captive Portal authentication is powerful and simple to implement with strict policies

• Industry standard command line interface (CLI), functional NETGEAR web interface (GUI), SNMP, sFlow and RSPAN
• Single-pane-of-glass NMS300 management platform with centralized firmware updates and mass-configuration support

• NETGEAR M4300 series is covered under NETGEAR ProSafe Lifetime Hardware Warranty
• 90 days of Technical Support via phone and email, Lifetime Technical Support through online chat and Lifetime Next Business Day hardware replacement

Expanding Wired Connectivity for SOHO Networks

NETGEAR is expanding its portfolio of next-generation 2.5G Multi-Gigabit Ethernet Plus Switches with the introduction of the new MS305E and MS308E. These switches come with 5 or 8 2.5G Multi-Gig ports in a durable metal case and are designed to seamlessly integrate into any business environment.

Plus Switches are the perfect upgrade from plug-and-play Unmanaged Switches, delivering essential networking features at an affordable price.

Highlights

• Enable network configuration and management at the price point of Unmanaged Switches
• Simple, yet useful network set-up on top of plug-and-play connectivity
• Business-friendly and easy-to-use web browser-based management GUI
• VLAN support for traffic segmentation
• Quality of Service (QoS) for traffic prioritization
• Auto "denial-of-service (DoS) prevention
• Troubleshoot connection issues via cable test
• Loop detection and broadcast storm controls
• Rate limiting for better bandwidth allocation
• Port mirroring for network monitoring
• Jumbo frame support
• Fanless, silent operation with desktop and wall-mount options
