the support website at support.netgear.com.

Note: Firmware updates with new features and bug fixes are made

available from time to time on downloadcenter.netgear.com. Some

products can regularly check the site and download new firmware,

or you can check for and download new firmware manually. If the

features or behavior of your product do not match what is described

in this guide, you might need to update your firmware.

Introduction and Hardware Description

ProSAFE Fast Ethernet PoE Smart Switch FS728TLP

Overview

This hardware installation guide is for the NETGEAR ProSAFE Fast Ethernet PoE Smart

Switch FS728TLP. The switch provides twenty-four 10/100BASE-T ports, four

10/100/1000BASE-T ports, two of which function as combo ports, and two small form-factor

pluggable (SFP) GBIC slots, both of which function as combo ports. Power over Ethernet

(PoE) is supported on ports 1 through 12.

You can make high-speed connections using the Gigabit Ethernet ports. For example:

•Connecting switches to each other with high-speed links

•Connecting to a network backbone

•Linking to high-speed servers

•Providing 10/100/1000 Mbps copper and 100/1000 Mbps fiber connectivity

Note: In this guide, the NETGEAR ProSAFE Fast Ethernet PoE Smart

Switch FS728TLP is referred as the switch.

The switch also provides the benefit of administrative management with a complete package

of features to monitor, configure, and control the network. With the web management

interface, you can view the switch’s many features and use them in a simple and intuitive

manner. The switch’s management features include configuration for port and switch

information, VLAN for traffic control, port trunking for increased bandwidth, and Class of

Service (CoS) for traffic prioritization. Initial discovery of the switch on the network requires

the Smart Control Center, a utility that runs on a computer.

You can use the switch freestanding or rack-mounted in a wiring closet or equipment room.

The switch is IEEE-compliant and provides low latency for high-speed networking. All ports

can automatically negotiate to the highest speed. This capability makes the switch well suited

for environments that have a mix of Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet devices. In

addition, all RJ-45 ports operate in half- or full-duplex mode. The maximum segment length is

328 feet (100 meters) over a Category 5 twisted-pair cable.

You can use the switch as a desktop to build a small network that enables you to have

1000 Mbps access to a file server. With full duplex enabled, the switch port connected to the

server or computer can provide 2000 Mbps throughput.

Switch Features

The following list identifies the key features of the switch:

•Twenty-four RJ-45 10/100 Fast Ethernet switch ports.

•Four RJ-45 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet switch ports, two of which (27T and 28T)

function as combo ports.

•Two small form-factor pluggable (SFP) GBIC slots, both of which (27F and 28F) function

as combo ports.

Combo ports are single ports with two physical connections, SFP fiber and RJ-45 copper.

The RJ-45 copper ports corresponding to the combo ports are the two 10/100/1000

autosensing Gigabit Ethernet switch combo ports. The SFP fiber ports corresponding to

the combo ports are the two SFP GBIC slots. If the two RJ-45 copper combo ports and

the two SFP fiber combo ports have devices connected, the devices that were connected

first take precedence. In other words, the combo ports function on a first-come,

first-served basis.

The following SFP GBICs are supported:

-1000BASE-SX (NETGEAR AGM731F)

-1000BASE-LX (NETGEAR AGM732F)

Introduction and Hardware Description

ProSAFE Fast Ethernet PoE Smart Switch FS728TLP

•The switch provides full compatibility with IEEE standards:

-IEEE 802.3i (10BASE-T)

-IEEE 802.3u (100BASE-TX, 100BASE-FX)

-IEEE 802.3x (full-duplex flow control)

-IEEE 802.3z (1000BASE-X)

-IEEE 802.3ab (1000BASE-T)

-IEEE 802.3af (Power over Ethernet)

-IEEE 802.3az (EEE)

•Autosensing and autonegotiating capabilities for all ports.

•Auto MDI/MIDX technology is supported on all ports.

•Automatic address-learning function to build the packet-forwarding information table. The

table contains up to 8 K Media Access Control (MAC) addresses.

•Full- and half-duplex functions for all 10/100/1000 Mbps ports.

•Store-and-forward transmission to remove corrupt packets from the network.

•Full-duplex IEEE 802.3x pause frame flow control.

•Active flow control to minimize packet loss and frame drops.

•Half-duplex back-pressure control.

•Per-port LEDs and system LEDs.

•Internal power supply.

•Standard 1U high, rack-mountable 19-inch chassis.

•Fan speed control.

•Support for the Power over Ethernet (PoE). PoE is supported on ports 1 through 12 with a

total power budget of 100W PoE. For example, the switch can support 15.4W for 6 ports

or 8W for 12 ports. The switch uses data pairs (RJ-45 1, 2, 3, and 6 PIN) to deliver the

power.
