MANAGED SWITCHES NETGEARs managed switches provide a complete solution with all core components built in. Basic add-ons such as stacking modules, management modules, server ports or rack-mount kits are all included. Manage them with a Web Browser or SNMP/RMON compatible network management software. Alternatively, use the switches as plug-andplay devices, leaving management as an option until later. PERFORMANCE SWITCHES Switches are like intelligent hubs as they manage network traffic more efficiently by learning where devices are connected and then only forwarding traffic to the relevant switch ports. They also allow multiple simultaneous sessions on the network providing considerable performance increase when compared to a hub.
