How many devices can the Netgear GS108-400NAS connect?

The Netgear ProSafe GS108-400NAS provides eight RJ45 Ethernet ports. Each port can connect a single Ethernet enabled device, so the switch can directly support up to eight wired endpoints such as workstations, printers or other networked equipment within a small or midsize business environment.

What Ethernet speeds are supported by the GS108-400NAS?

The GS108-400NAS is described as an 8 Port 10, 100, 1000 Mbps desktop switch. This means each RJ45 port can operate at 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps, depending on the capabilities of the connected device and cabling. It functions as a Gigabit Ethernet unmanaged switch within these defined speed ranges.

Is the GS108-400NAS a managed switch?

No, the GS108-400NAS is categorised as a Gigabit Ethernet unmanaged switch. It is intended for straightforward deployments where configuration interfaces or advanced management features are not required, offering plug and play connectivity across its eight RJ45 ports at 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps.

What is the form factor of the GS108-400NAS switch?

: "The GS108-400NAS is designated as a desktop switch in the 8 Port 10, 100, 1000 Mbps Desktop category. This indicates it is designed to sit on a desk, shelf or similar flat surface rather than being installed in a rack, making it suitable for offices and small network spaces.

For what type of organisations is the GS108-400NAS intended?

The product level is listed as SMB, meaning small and midsize business. Combined with its eight 10, 100 and 1000 Mbps RJ45 ports and unmanaged operation, it is intended for organisations that need basic Gigabit Ethernet connectivity in offices, workgroups or branch locations without complex configuration.
