Build a network quickly and easily using the NETGEAR ProSafe 16-port desktop network switch. With the ProSafe switch, you can connect up to sixteen computers in a local area network. Once connected, the switch takes care of data transmission between connected computers, automatically forwarding data from one system to another for smooth, trouble-free communication.

Easy Network Creation

The NETGEAR ProSafe desktop switch makes it easy to network up to sixteen systems, allowing for transmission speeds of up to 100 Mbps, depending on the interface speed of each connected device. The switch is designed for plug-and-play operation, automatically choosing the internal settings needed to communicate with the computer or server that you connect to the switch through one of its Ethernet ports. To connect the networked devices to another network or to the Internet, a wired router will be needed.

Dedicated Bandwidth

Each of the ProSafe's sixteen ports supports up to 200 Mbps of dedicated bandwidth. This allows for synchronous traffic between connected systems. The switch's automatic flow control ensures that information sent from one computer in the network to another reaches its destination without interference from any other data traffic moving throughout the switch from the other systems.

Compact Construction

The ProSafe desktop network switch features a small, compact design that can be used without a rack. The switch can be placed anywhere it's convenient, as long as the placement surface is a flat one. The switch can even be wall mounted to provide a permanent location that's out of the way, allowing the cabling used to make connections to be run along the base of the wall instead of across floors to reduce tripping hazards in the room.

System Requirements:

• UTP Category 5 or better cables
• Network card for each PC or server (e.g. GA311)
