NETGEAR launches GS108LP PoE Switch with a 8 Gigabit Port

NETGEAR has introduced GS108LP Gigabit Ethernet switch, housing 8 Gigabit copper ports in a desktop metal case which is also wall-mountable.

Small business has been leveraging switches for some time, but now home offices and even smart homes need to be using them as more and more devices are connected with things such as VoIP phones, IP security cameras, video-over-IP endpoints, sensors, LED lighting, secure access door locks, and other IoT devices. A lot of these new devices either require PoE or users prefer PoE to cut down on wiring. Some of the new generations of devices (Wave 2 802.11ac wireless access points and pan-tilt-zoom HD surveillance cameras) require PoE+ power.

But what is most unique about these plug-and-play switches is that they have a built-in intuitive power selector and support optional interchangeable external power supplies that allows to easily increase PoE budget at any time to provide your devices with the power they need. With this industry-unique feature in an unmanaged switch, users can start with a lower PoE budget and then cost-effectively increase their PoE budget at any time, to grow along with your business needs.

Marthesh Nagendra, Country Manager – India & SAARC, NETGEAR, says, “GS108LP is a true Gigabit PoE Switch which offers flexible mounting option. All 8 port PoE+ with Compact form factor and noiseless with a total power budget of 60W, ideally suitable for powering cameras, VoIP Phones and Access Points, etc. This new product is a result of one such outreach program to bring out multiple options of PoE Switches to Surveillance partners.”
