ProSAFE 28-Port and 48-Port 10-Gigabit Smart Managed Switch Models XS728T and XS748T
Features
The following list describes the key features of the switch:
• Twenty-four (model XS728T) or forty-four (model XS748T) 1000/10GBASE-T switching
ports.
• Four dedicated SFP+ slots for 1GBASE and 10GBASE copper and fiber optical modules
or Direct Attach Cables (DAC).
• One USB port (for configuration files, firmware, and debug logs)
• Full NETGEAR Smart Managed Switch functionality.
• Full compatibility with IEEE standards:
- IEEE 802.3 Ethernet
- IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet 1000BASE-SX/LX
- IEEE 802.3an 10GBASE-T 10 Gbit/s Ethernet over copper twisted-pair cable
- IEEE 802.3ae 10-Gigabit Ethernet over fiber (10GBASE-SR, 10GBASE-LR)
- IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T
- IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagging
- IEEE 802.3x Full-duplex flow control
- IEEE 802.3ad Link Aggregation (LAG with LACP)
- IEEE 802.1AB LLDP with ANSI/TIA-1057 (LLDP-MED)
- IEEE 802.1p Class of Service (QoS and DSCP)
- IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)
- IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP)
- IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP)
- IEEE 802.1x RADIUS Network Access Control
- IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE)
• AutoSensing and auto-negotiation capabilities for all ports.
• Auto Uplink™ on all ports to make the right connection.
• Automatic address learning function to build the packet-forwarding information table. The
table contains up to 16K Media Access Control (MAC) addresses.
• Store-and-forward transmission to remove bad packets from the network.
• Full-duplex IEEE 802.3x pause frame flow control.
• Active flow control to minimize packet loss and frame drops.
• Jumbo frames up to 10K bytes.
• Static or LACP LAGs (12 LAGs with up to 8 members per LAG for model XS728T;
24 LAGs with up to 8 members per LAG for model XS748T).
• Per-port LEDs and system status LEDs.
• Internal open-frame power supply.
• Standard NETGEAR chassis (1U high).
