NETGEAR GS728TPP Managed L2/L3/L4 Gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000) Power over Ethernet (PoE) Grey

All ports PoE+ with up to 760W PoE budget and Remote/Cloud Management option - Select your new network engine!

As a leading provider of network equipment for SMBs, NETGEAR® understands the importance of providing a great choice of PoE port counts and power budgets that can adapt to your business’ needs, whether in the hospitality, catering, education or retail domains. The GS728TP, GS728TPP, GS752TP and GS752TPP Gigabit Ethernet Switches with PoE+ and 4 SFP Ports join the NETGEAR standalone Smart switches family, adding full 24 and 48 port PoE+ support for deployment of modern high-power PoE devices. Cautious spender organizations can now deploy denser PoE+ devices connected to a cost-effective switch, with a reasonable PoE power budget of 190W over 24-port, or 380W over 48-port. Organizations who buy infrastructure for the long term and want future proofing for the unforeseeable can now select a switch with a PoE power budget of 380W over 24-port, or 760W over 48-port providing more headroom. Temperature- and load-based fan-speed control combines accurate monitoring with minimized system acoustic noise: the GS728TP supports quiet rack mounting operation with a maximum of 26.80dBA even at full PoE power with traffic on all ports and 25°C (77°F) ambient. Following the same measurements, the GS728TPP is rated at 33.30dBA, the GS752TP at 36.60dB and the GS752TPP at 39.30dBA.

Highlights
The NETGEAR PoE+ Gigabit Smart switches with Remote/Cloud Management provides a great value, with configurable L2 network features like VLANs and PoE operation scheduling, allowing SMB customers to deploy PoEbased VoIP phones, IP cameras, videoover-IP endpoints and Wireless access points simply and securely. Advanced features such as IPv4/IPv6 Layer 3 static routing, LACP link aggregation, DiffServ QoS, Private VLANs, Multicast VLAN Registration and Spanning Tree will satisfy even the most advanced small business networks.

Key features include:
- Quiet rack mounting operation with 26.80 to 39.30dBA at 25°C (77°F) ambient
- Layer 3 static routing with 32 routes (IPv4 and IPv6) for interVLAN local routing
- Advanced VLAN and Private VLAN support for better network segmentation
- L2/L3/L4 access control lists (ACLs) for granular network access control including 802.1x port authentication
- Advanced per port PoE controls for remote power management of PoE connected devices including operation scheduling (e.g. Wireless APs, IP security cameras, LED lighting, secure access door locks, IoT devices…)
- Advanced QoS (Quality of Service) for traffic prioritization including port-based, 802.1p and L2/L3/L4 DSCP-based
- Auto “denial-of-service” (DoS) prevention
- IGMP Snooping and Querier for multicast optimization
- Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) for larger L2 multicast networks and AV over IP deployment
- Dynamic ARP for increased security targeting a class of Man in the Middle attack
- Rate limiting and priority queuing for better bandwidth allocation
- Port mirroring for network monitoring
- Energy Efficient Ethernet (IEEE 802.3az) for maximum power savings
- Cable test to troubleshoot connection issues
- SNMP v1, v2c, v3 and RMON remote monitoring

How to use

Install the GS728TPP in a standard 19-inch rack or on a suitable flat surface, connect uplinks via the SFP ports for fiber or use the Gigabit RJ‑45 ports for copper links. Connect PoE devices such as IP phones, cameras and access points to the RJ‑45 ports; the switch will supply PoE+ power according to the configured power budget. Use the Web GUI or NETGEAR Insight to perform initial configuration: set VLANs, static routes, QoS policies, ACLs and PoE schedules. Monitor status and performance via SNMP, Insight Cloud portal or the local management interface.

Recommendations

For balanced PoE deployments, plan device placement and calculate total PoE power requirements before provisioning. Enable PoE scheduling for noncritical devices to conserve power, and configure VLAN segmentation, ACLs and QoS policies to separate voice/video traffic and prioritize mission-critical flows. Use the dedicated SFP ports for fiber uplinks to provide redundancy and improved availability.
