NETGEAR GS524UP-100EUS Unmanaged 24-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE++ Switch, Grey

The NETGEAR GS524UP-100EUS is a 24-port Gigabit Ethernet PoE++ unmanaged switch designed to provide simultaneous wired data connectivity and power to endpoint devices. It offers data transfer rates of 10, 100, and 1000 Mbit/s across its interfaces. As an unmanaged switch, the unit requires no initial configuration or web-based management. It supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing it to supply power to hardware such as IP surveillance cameras, wireless access points, and VoIP phones directly through the network cables. This simplifies infrastructure by reducing the need for individual electrical outlets at every endpoint location.

Housed in a grey metal chassis, the switch is designed for integration into standard IT environments. It is rack-mountable and intended for installation in server rooms or network cabinets. The front panel features LED indicators for activity, link status, PoE delivery, power, and connection speed, providing technicians with immediate visual feedback. Although it lacks advanced administrative controls, the hardware supports Quality of Service (QoS) protocols for basic, automatic traffic prioritization. The device is focused exclusively on stable, wired network expansion.
