Introduction
This hardware installation guide is for the following NETGEAR switch models:
• Insight Managed 28-Port Gigabit Ethernet Smart Cloud Switch with 2 SFP 1G & 2 SFP+ 10G Fiber Ports,
Model GC728X
• Insight Managed 28-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Smart Cloud Switch with 2 SFP 1G & 2 SFP+ 10G Fiber
Ports, Model GC728XP
• Insight Managed 52-Port Gigabit Ethernet Smart Cloud Switch with 2 SFP 1G & 2 SFP+ 10G Fiber Ports,
Model GC752X
• Insight Managed 52-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Smart Cloud Switch with 2 SFP 1G & 2 SFP+ 10G Fiber
