Netgear ProSAFE Web Managed (Plus) XS708Ev2 follows the success of the first generation XS708E, with 2nd generation technology that continues to lead the way in delivering the most cost effective 10GBASE-T copper switch in the market. Ideal for workgroup aggregation, server and storage connectivity or high bandwidth applications, the XS708Ev2 delivers up to 10 times the throughput of traditional GbE copper switches. As a step up from an unmanaged switch the Web Managed (Plus) family leverages some key benefits of a smart switch. On top of the plug-n-play 10-Gigabit Ethernet connectivity, it also offers some fundamental network features that will help optimize the performance of business networks such as VLAN, QoS, IGMP Snooping, port trunking, rate limiting, and traffic monitoring. New for XS708Ev2 is the easy-to-use web browser-based management GUI, making advanced setup and monitoring simple.

The XS708E consists of eight 10GE copper ports and one combo 10GE Fiber SFP+ port. With 10GBased-T, customers can use Cat6 or Cat7 copper cables with standard RJ45 Ethernet jacks that are already widely used in their current network. Network speeds can improve up to 10x from traditional Gigabit to 10Gigabit with minimal network changes and upgrades.
