NETGEAR GS308LP - 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ Unmanaged Switch, Black

The NETGEAR GS308LP-100EUS 8-port Gigabit PoE+ unmanaged switch (FlexPoE) is a plug-and-play device that requires no configuration. It features eight RJ45 ports for connecting network equipment. Each port supports data transfer rates of 1 Gbit/s. The switch provides PoE+ power, allowing devices to be powered directly via Ethernet cables and removing the need for separate power adapters. All eight ports support up to 30 W, with a total power budget of 60 W.

The durable metal chassis is designed for standard work environments. Its fanless design ensures silent operation, making it suitable for noise-sensitive rooms. The switch can be placed on a desk or mounted on a wall or rack. Front-facing LEDs display link status, activity, speed, and PoE draw for straightforward troubleshooting. Measuring 236 x 102 x 27 mm and weighing 600 g, the device has a compact footprint. The mean time between failures (MTBF) is 2,752,480 hours.
