10 Gigabit Managed Switches Data Sheet
M7100 series
The NETGEAR
®
10 Gigabit M7100 series consists of a fully managed, low-latency, line-rate 10G Copper “Base-T” switch solution;
24 ports 10GBase-T (RJ45) that support Fast Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet and 10 Gigabit speeds for server, storage and network
progressive upgrade; 4 ports SFP+ that broaden 10 Gigabit connectivity for 1G/10G fiber uplinks and other DAC connections.
The M7100 series is ideal for all organizations considering reliable, affordable and simple 10 Gigabit Ethernet Top-of-Rack server access
layer and high-density, high-performance 10GbE backbone architectures.
Layer 2+ with static routing
•The M7100 series comes with Port-based/VLAN-based/Subnet-based “static routing” Layer 2+ versions
•L3 fixed routes to the next hop towards the destination network are added to the routing table
•L3 routing is wire-speed in the M7100 series hardware with up to 128 static routes (IPv4)
10 Gigabit transition with Base-T
•10GBase-T, like other Base-T technologies, uses the standard RJ45 Ethernet jack
•It is backward compatible, auto-negotiating between higher and lower speeds – thereby not forcing an all at once network
equipment upgrade
•Cat5/Cat5E are supported for Gigabit speeds; when Cat6 twisted pair copper cabling is a minimum requirement for 10 Gigabit up to
30 meters
•Cat6A or newer Cat7 cabling allow for up to 100 meter 10GBase-T connections
Top-of-the-line performance and IPv6 ready
•32K MAC addresses; 480Gbps switching fabric; 12K jumbo frames; Auto-iSCSI Flow Acceleration; Auto-EEE Energy Efficient Ethernet
•IPv4/IPv6 comprehensive traffic filtering (ACLs), and prioritization (QoS - DiffServ)
Top-of-rack availability
•Two redundant, hot-swap power supplies (one PSU comes with the switch; second optional PSU is ordered separately)
•Two removable fan trays provide front-to-back cooling airflow for best compatibility with data center hot aisle/cold aisle airflow patterns
Industry standard management
•Industry standard command line interface (CLI)
•Fully functional NETGEAR web interface (GUI)
Industry leading warranty
•The NETGEAR M7100 series is backed by a NETGEAR ProSafe Lifetime Hardware Warranty
+
•Also included is the ProSupport Lifetime 24x7 Advanced Technical Support*
•Also included is a 3-Year Next Business Day Onsite Hardware Replacement**
