Overview
The switch provides eight 10/100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 copper ports that support nonstop
10/100/1000M Layer 2 networks. For model GS310TP, all RJ-45 ports support PoE+.
Also for model GS310TP, two additional ports can accept small form-factor pluggable
(SFP) gigabit interface converters (GBICs) for 1G fiber connectivity.
Note: For information about application samples, see Applications on page 18.
The switch provides administrative management options that let you configure, monitor,
and control the network. Using the local browser–based management interface, in this
guide referred to as the local management interface, you can configure the switch and
the network, including the ports, the management VLAN, VLANs for traffic control, link
aggregation for increased bandwidth, Quality of Service (QoS) for prioritizing traffic,
and network security.
For initial discovery of the switch on the network, use one of the following methods, all
of which are described in detail in the user manual:
•
NETGEAR Insight mobile app
•
NETGEAR Smart Control Center Utility
•
NETGEAR Switch Discovery Tool
You can also get the IP address of the switch from the DHCP server in the network or
use an IP scanner utility.
After discovery, you can configure the switch using the local management interface for
advanced setup and configuration of features, or the Smart Control Center program
for very basic setup. For more information, see the user manual, which you can download
from netgear.com/support/download/.
The switch is designed for freestanding desktop use. The switch is IEEE compliant and
offers low latency. All ports can automatically negotiate to the highest speed, which
makes the switch very suitable for a mixed environment with Fast Ethernet and Gigabit
Ethernet.
Use Category 5e (Cat 5e) or higher-rated Ethernet cables terminated with RJ-45
connectors to make Gigabit connections.
