Description

ProSAFE® S3300 Smart Managed Switch Series

The ProSAFE® S3300 Series are a new generation of Gigabit Stackable Smart Managed Switches inclusive of 4 10G ports, which can be used for uplinks and/or stacking between other S3300 switches. Dependable switched LAN network design mandates an architecture that can both scale as organization networks grow-and be flexible enough to provide support for faster server and storage connections needs. As SMBs produce and consume more data, Gigabit to the desktop increasingly needs to be underpinned with 10GbE connectivity to the core to ensure a consistent, seamless user experience. This new generation of switches provides SMB customers with the most cost-effective 10G connections between the access and aggregation layer of the network.

The ProSAFE S3300 Smart Managed Stackable Series is the blueprint for a dependable future-proof network. From greenfield network requirements to network refresh projects, the ProSAFE S3300 series sets new standards in defining flexibility and choice for SMBs looking to leverage reliable, future proof technologies at affordable price points. Packed with rich enterprise-class feature sets and advanced security measures, it is the only advanced smart managed switch platform to offer both dedicated 10GBASE-T and SFP uplink and stacking connectivity in both PoE and non PoE configurations – a combination that delivers an unrivalled and powerful interconnect solution for access to core connectivity.

With a choice of 24 or 48 port models, these switches can deliver on demanding tasks such as data replication and backup, video on demand and high volume transaction processing. Up to 6 switches across the series can be stacked for a total of 288 Gigabit access network ports, with 40Gbps stacking bandwidth and full redundancy for unsurpassed reliability. Add in the ability to deliver PoE to every port with supplemental RPS and application diversity is readily supported from PTZ IP camera surveillance solutions through to high powered wireless access points and VoIP phones. The inclusion of 10GBASE-T uplink capability as standard ensures an affordable way to leverage existing copper installations – if Gigabit speeds and link aggregation meets current requirements, simply migrate to 10GbE connectivity at a pace and time to suit your needs. With lifetime warranty, lifetime NBD and lifetime online technical chat to back you up, you’ll have access to an extensive support service to help protect your investment and reduce downtime risk over the long term.

S3300 True Stacking

NETGEAR stacking feature provides resilient network architecture: up to six (6) S3300 switches can be stacked with a single management IP address, which simplifies network operations. VLAN and QoS can be managed in a unified fashion across the stack. Up to 288 Gigabit access ports and 12 available 10-Gigabit uplinks offer support for high-density developments as well as flexibility for future network expansion need.

The S3300 architecture offers a 40Gbps bi-directional stacking backplane with built-in redundancy and auto-failover. The stacking capability allows for master and slave switches with a secondary master as back-up. The backup master can quickly take over the failed master switch function. Failed switches can be hot-swapped with the rest of the switches in the stack unaffected and operational.

Please note that stacking is supported at 10-Gigabit speeds (with either 10GBASE-T Copper or SFP Fiber modules) only. 1G stacking is not supported.
