NETGEAR GS728TPP-300EUS - Managed 28-Port Gigabit PoE+ Switch, Grey

The NETGEAR GS728TPP-300EUS is a 28-port Gigabit PoE+ managed switch with 4 SFP uplinks (24x RJ45 PoE+). This L2/L3/L4 device is designed for network segmentation and centralized power delivery. It provides 24 Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports, all supporting Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+). The 56 Gbit/s switching capacity maintains consistent data rates across connected endpoints. Four SFP slots serve as fiber uplinks for core infrastructure or server racks. This allows for the deployment of power-hungry equipment, such as IP cameras and wireless access points, without the need for local power sources or the creation of network bottlenecks.

Housed in a rack-mountable chassis, the switch uses a two-fan cooling system that generates 33.3 dB of noise. The 380 W PoE budget supports multiple powered endpoints simultaneously. Traffic management includes Access Control List (ACL) functionality and support for up to 256 VLANs. Network stability is supported by ARP inspection and DHCP features, including snooping and a DHCPv6 client. The unit runs on an 800 MHz ARM Cortex-A55 processor and consumes 26 W under typical usage.

• 16,000-entry MAC address table and 1.5 MB packet buffer.
• Multicast support for filtering up to 512 groups to optimise traffic flow.
• Gigabit Ethernet transmission latency of 4.701 µs for delay-sensitive applications.
• Mean Time Between Failures (MTBF) of 1,252,990 hours.
• Maximum power consumption of 427 W at full PoE load.
