Product Description

Product Description

Need a quantum leap in office network capability? NETGEAR delivers a cost-effective solution - the JFS524. This unmanaged 10/100 Fast Ethernet switch provides expanded connectivity for small office networks so users no longer have to compete with each other for bandwidth. All of the essential features - automatic speed and full/half duplex sensing, 200 Mbps throughput per port, Auto Uplink - are included, but at an economical price that a value-conscious business owner can't ignore.Twenty-four ports of speed and capacity at a modest price, with no compromising on quality - that's what you can expect from NETGEAR's hardworking JFS524. Switched 10/100 ports provide private bandwidth for PCs, servers, or hubs, and support 200 Mbps of throughput. Each port delivers 200 Mbps of network speed in full-duplex mode. Ever-vigilant, the JFS524 begins to operate as soon as it's powered on - with no configuration required. All 24 ports deliver automatic speed and full/half duplex sensing, plus Auto Uplink, which adjusts for straight-through or crossover cables to make the right link. This rugged metal unit is conveniently compact for an uncluttered desktop or easy rack mounting. And it lets you easily intermix 10 and 100 Mbps devices within your unmanaged network.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple, compact and affordable, May 28, 2009

By	C. Jolls (Florida) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Netgear makes great products, and this is no exception. The best part is this switch has no fan to go bad in it. My last two switches died after the fans wore out, even after being replaced once, which was a pain in the you-know-what. I use all 24 ports with a mix of servers, wifi routers, and a couple older 10mbit printers; everything is happy, and so am I.
