NETGEAR GS324P-100NAS 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet Unmanaged PoE+ Switch

The Netgear GS324P-100NAS is a robust 24-port Gigabit Ethernet unmanaged switch, meticulously engineered to provide reliable and cost-effective network connectivity for small to medium-sized offices and home environments. This plug-and-play device offers a straightforward solution for expanding network capacity, making it an ideal choice for businesses seeking immediate wired connectivity without complex configuration. Its primary purpose is to simplify network expansion and power compatible devices through a single cable, addressing the challenges of device placement and power availability.

Equipped with 16 Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) ports, the GS324P-100NAS delivers up to 30W per port with a substantial 190W total power budget. This capability is critical for deploying PoE-powered devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points, eliminating the need for separate power outlets and cabling. The switch features a non-blocking switching architecture, ensuring maximum throughput at wire speed, and incorporates Quality of Service (QoS) to prioritize voice and video traffic for uninterrupted performance even under heavy network loads.

Designed for flexible deployment, this model comes in a durable metal enclosure that supports desktop, wall-mount, or rack-mount installations, making it adaptable to various physical infrastructure layouts. Its fanless design ensures silent operation, a significant advantage for noise-sensitive environments like offices, classrooms, or retail spaces. Furthermore, the GS324P-100NAS supports Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) to reduce power consumption during periods of low activity, contributing to lower operating costs.
