XS512EM-100EUS Switch, 12-Port, 10 Gigabit Ethernet, Managed

Get the most out of your network with 10 Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit 5-speed Networking Switches! The built-in 5-speed 10 Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit technology in the NETGEAR multi-speed switches helps your devices work faster.

With the growth of virtualization, flash memory, 4K video, video streaming, and IP monitoring, SMB networks need to support speeds beyond the 1 Gigabit barrier. The 10 Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit Smart Managed Plus line from NETGEAR offers the right solution for these needs with new 10 Gigabit/Multi-Gigabit bandwidth at a moderate cost.

Each port automatically detects what speed the connected device needs and then delivers the appropriate speed. Unlike standard 10-gigabit switches, which provide only 1-gigabit connectivity for any device that requires less than 10 Gigabit, the XS512EM and XS724EM always deliver the speed you need, without downgrading. The new NETGEAR multi-speed switch ports can also be connected to standard CAT5e Ethernet cables without having to upgrade to Cat6/Cat6A cabling, reducing cabling costs and overhead.
