Highlights
Enterprise-Class Features
With a rich set of Layer 2 management
features, the GS752TXS is efcient, secure
and ready for the future. Static routing
allows for segmentation of the network,
with internal routing through the switch
– reserving the router for external trafc
routing only, making the entire network
more efcient. Dynamic VLAN assignment
increases security by imposing consistent
policy and user credentials across the
network, regardless of where users
connect. Support for MLD Snooping
greatly increase network efciency by
forwarding multicast trafc to designated
hosts only, rather than ooding multicast
packets across all ports. The GS752TXS
also comes with full IPv6 support,
comprehensive security and advanced
multicast management.
Scalability and Reliability
The GS752TXS is a scalable solution
that grows with a business. Starting with
a single switch, the stack can grow to
six switches with a total of 288 network
ports. Two out of the four 10-gigabit SFP+
ports on each switch can be used to create
the stack, a single logical unit with up to 40
Gbps of stacking backplane that can be
congured and managed as one switch –
speeding up deployment while simplifying
administration and maintenance. The
stacked switches can be spread across
multiple physical locations, by taking
advantage of SFP+ beroptic connectivity,
making the GS752TXS an ideal solution for
remote and branch ofces. All four 10GE
ports can be used for network uplinks to
servers and storage devices, or split with
two ports for local or distant stacking and
two ports for uplinks and link aggregation.
Auto failover creates a safety net so that if
one switch in the stack fails, all the other
switches will be intact.
Flexible Management Options
As a “smart” switch, IT administrators can
decide how to manage the GS752TXS.
Individual switches can be managed
through a simple browser-based graphical
user interface. The GS752TXS can also
be managed through SNMP software for
compatibility with existing SNMPbased
consoles. For larger networks, NETGEAR’s
Smart Control Center, is a free Windows
based application for discovering,
conguring and upgrading multiple smart
switches across the network. For networks
including network devices from NETGEAR
such as switches, wireless access points and
NAS, the NETGEAR Network Management
System (NMS-200) can help manage them
all from a single console for extensive
visibility, granular control and seamless
automation across the entire network.
Like all NETGEAR Smart Switches, the
GS752TXS is backed by the NETGEAR
Limited Lifetime Warranty*, and 1-Year
ProSupport 24x7 Advanced Technical

Industry’s First Smart Switch with
10-Gigabit Connectivity
An ideal companion to the rapidly
emerging class of 10-gigabit servers, the
NETGEAR® 52-port Gigabit Stackable
Smart Switch is the industry’s rst smart
switch with 10-gigabit connectivity –
delivering maximum throughput in SMB
networks for demanding tasks such as
data replication and backup, virtualization,
video on demand and high-volume
transaction processing. At less than half
the cost of a Smart switch, the 52-Port
Gigabit Smart Switch provides 48 gigabit
ports for connecting devices to the
network, along with four 10GE SFP+ ports
for stacking or uplink to servers. As many
as six switches can be stacked for a total of
288 network ports, with full redundancy
for unsurpassed reliability. The GS752TXS
offers a rich enterprise-class feature set,
including advanced trafc management
and security, yet can be easily congured
and monitored through a web-based
graphical user interface.
