NETGEAR brings even larger PoE budgets on Unmanaged switches with Ultra60 PoE++ technology with 24-port (GS524UP) Unmanaged Switches, ideal for powerful PoE+/PoE++ installations with impressive PoE budgets up to 380W and 480W, a compact size, plug-and-play installation, and reliable performance at affordable prices.

These switches can support all types of PoE installation with larger PoE budgets and ports that provide PoE+ and PoE++ power for up to 60W per port. Standardized to IEEEE 802.3bt, the Ultra60 PoE++ switches can deliver up to 60W of power per port, allowing the connections of higher power required devices, such as high performance 802.11AX wireless access points, PTZ and 4K IP surveillance cameras, PoE lighting, PoE-powered audio speakers, as well as other high-powered devices. The GS524UP has a PoE mode used to enable pre-802.bt compatibility for pre-bt devices that were created before 802.3bt Standard was ratified.

False Managed Switch

It is not a managed switch. I could not access the switch at all, not even using their discovery application. I even set up subnets on my router, but their default IP address is unreachable. Do not purchase.

Great 2.5G PoE Switch

Great and affordable 2.5GB PoE switch. Only wish is that they make a 16-port unmanaged PoE someday soon so I don’t have to daisy chain.

Great unit but 3-prong power plug is overkill

Great compact unit. Everything worked right out of the box. HOWEVER, for such a low powered device, I'm surprised of the use of a 3-prong grounded plug that doesn't fit into my APC network UPS. I did not want to use a adapter just for the power plug. I do a lot of international traveling and we appear to be Read more

Competitive pricing improves cost management while dual firmware needs addressing

What is our primary use case? We use NETGEAR for IT-related tasks such as connecting printers and access points. It's primarily utilized as a layer-two solution. Additionally, one of the NETGEAR switches is deployed at a retail outlet. How has it helped my organization? It is difficult to quantify the return on investment because it's an unmanaged switch. By having unmanaged switches, we don't need to spend a lot of time on configuration or management, which simplifies our operations. What is most valuable? NETGEAR offers a competitive pricing structure, which is beneficial for cost management. The precision time protocol feature caught our interest for future use in specific settings like churches, where low latency is required. What needs improvement? NETGEAR should focus on eliminating single points of failure. They should introduce features like dual firmware or dual boot that allow systems to be updated without downtime. The user experience on their website needs improvement; it's often confusing which switches support Insight cloud features. For how long have I used the solution? The NETGEAR switch has been in place for a while, approximately three to four years. What do I think about the stability of the solution? NETGEAR stability falls between a six and a seven out of ten rating. We've experienced failures such as a 16-port dying after three to four years. What do I think about the scalability of the solution? NETGEAR's scalability through its Insight Cloud system is on par with Ubiquiti's, although it must offer features beyond its competitors. Higher-end switches deploy more advanced features, such as those needed for precision time protocols. How are customer service and support? Customer service navigation is not user-friendly; the website is confusing, making it difficult to find pertinent information. There are issues distinguishing which switches support cloud features. How would you rate customer service and support? Positive Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch? Ubiquiti solutions were used previously. Their limited customer support and liability issues with their operating system prompted a change. How was the initial setup? I did not set it up personally. It was already installed when I began working with it. Since it's unmanaged, we don't have to configure it continuously, simplifying the process. What about the implementation team? The installation involved two or three individuals from a different location. What was our ROI? The return on investment is hard to gauge due to the limited management required for unmanaged switches. The switch is operational with minimal intervention, which is expected for unmanaged solutions. What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing? NETGEAR is reasonably priced, between a six and seven out of ten on the pricing scale. Some high-end switches required for specific advanced features, like precision time protocols, can be more expensive. Which other solutions did I evaluate? We are currently testing Grandstream switches and have explored Ubiquiti products. We also have quotations for Aruba Instant On yet have not deployed it primarily due to its dual setup options with limited cloud access. Grandstream is evolving and offers the potential for zero-trust provisioning. What other advice do I have? NETGEAR is a viable option if you require cost-effective solutions. However, ensure the product aligns with your requirements for more advanced needs and cloud features. Always look for features that differentiate it, such as AI integration or comprehensive cloud provisioning. I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.

Efficient routing and access control with an easy setup

What is our primary use case? We use NETGEAR Switches for networking, particularly for switch-to-switch connectivity. We connect them with core switches, especially for camera installation. How has it helped my organization? NETGEAR Switches have increased the throughput and speed of internal communication, and have improved our network efficiency. What is most valuable? The most valuable features are routing and access control. Integration is very easy compared to other brands, making configuration straightforward even for any IT professional. What needs improvement? They can improve on the commercial part, specifically the cost, as it is higher than other brands. For how long have I used the solution? I have worked with NETGEAR Switches for the last five years. What do I think about the stability of the solution? It is working fine. What do I think about the scalability of the solution? The integration part is very easy compared to other brands. The scalability of NETGEAR Switches is easy and very beneficial for us. I would rate the scalability nine out of ten. How are customer service and support? There is no issue with the support. If anything arises, we get good support. How would you rate customer service and support? Positive How was the initial setup? The initial setup was rated eight out of ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy to set up. Initially, there were some challenges because it was the first time, but later it was fine. What about the implementation team? The deployment was done in-house. We used three people: one to manage all switches, another for power connection and cabling, and a third for configuration. What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing? The cost of switches is higher than other brands. I would rate the price of NETGEAR Switches seven out of ten, where ten is the highest price. What other advice do I have? I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.
