NETGEAR XS508M-100NAS 8-Port 10-Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit Ethernet Switch

Overview:

The XS505M and XS508M switches are equipped with versatile Copper Ethernet ports, offering a range of connectivity options, including FastEthernet, 1-Gigabit, 2.5-Gigabit, 5-Gigabit, or 10-Gigabit speeds. Additionally, each switch features 1 SFP+ Fiber port, providing users with the choice of 1-Gigabit or 10-Gigabit connectivity. Noteworthy is the automatic speed detection for each port, ensuring devices receive the precise speed required without any downgrades.

Unlike conventional 10-Gigabit switches that may limit devices requiring less than 10-Gigabit to 1-Gigabit connectivity, the XS505M delivers exact speed requirements, avoiding unnecessary downgrades. The innovative Multi-speed switch ports are compatible with standard Cat5E Ethernet cables, eliminating the need for Cat6 wiring upgrades, resulting in cost savings and reduced hassle.

The switches boast 8 x 10G Ethernet ports, providing high-performance connectivity for various networking needs. Additionally, they feature 1 x 1G/10G SFP+ port, shared for added flexibility. The setup process is simplified with a plug-and-play design, requiring no software installation or configuration. Users have the option to deploy the switches on a desktop or in a rackmount configuration, and all necessary mounting hardware is included.

These switches adhere to energy-efficient standards (IEEE802.3az) and operate quietly, making them suitable for diverse environments. With a commitment to simplicity, performance, and flexibility, the XS505M and XS508M switches are ideal for businesses seeking high-speed, reliable network connectivity.
