Netgear GS108-400NAS Unmanaged 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet Switch

The NETGEAR GS108-400NAS is an 8-port Gigabit Ethernet unmanaged switch, designed to provide straightforward, high-speed network expansion for small offices, home offices, and small to medium-sized businesses. This device offers immediate plug-and-play connectivity, enabling users to effortlessly integrate new devices into their network without the need for complex software configurations or IT expertise. It addresses the common challenge of needing more network ports to support a growing number of wired devices, from computers and servers to IP cameras and VoIP phones.

Under the hood, the GS108-400NAS leverages full Gigabit Ethernet speeds across all eight ports, ensuring a non-blocking architecture with a total switching bandwidth of 16 Gbps. This capacity allows for efficient data transfer, minimizing bottlenecks even under heavy network traffic. Its support for Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) significantly reduces power consumption during periods of low activity, translating into measurable operational cost savings. Features like 802.1p traffic prioritization and Jumbo Frame support further enhance its utility, allowing for seamless integration within more sophisticated network environments that require optimized handling of large data packets and prioritized traffic.

Engineered for flexibility and reliability, the GS108-400NAS features a compact, durable metal casing suitable for desktop placement or discreet wall mounting. Its fanless design ensures silent operation, making it an ideal choice for noise-sensitive environments like offices, classrooms, or residential setups. As an unmanaged switch, it provides essential network connectivity without the overhead of management software,  making deployment quick and maintenance minimal.
