1. Introduction

Congratulations on the purchase of your NETGEAR®ProSafeTM GS752TXS Smart Switch! Your

GS752TXS Smart Switch is a state-of-the-art, high-performance, IEEE-compliant network

solution designed for users who require a large number of ports and want the power of Gigabit

connectivity to eliminate bottlenecks, boost performance, and increase productivity. There are 48

twisted-paired ports on the front panel of the switch which support nonstop 10/100/1000

networks. The front panel also has four SFP+ ports that support 1000M and 10G optical modules

or up to two stacking modules. To simplify installation, the switch is shipped ready for use out of

the box.

The

GS752TXS Smart Switch Hardware Installation Guide

describes how to install and power on

the GS752TXS Smart Switch. The information in this manual is intended for readers with

intermediate computer and Internet skills.

This chapter serves as an introduction to the GS752TXS Smart Switch and provides the

GS752TXS Smart Switch Hardware Installation Guide

Overview

The NETGEAR GS752TXS Smart Switch provides 48 twisted-pair ports that support nonstop

10/100/1000M networks. The switch also has four built-in Enhanced Small Form Factor

Pluggable (SFP+) GBIC slots that support 1000M and 10G optical modules or up to two

stacking modules.

Using these Gigabit slots, you can create high-speed connections to a server or network

backbone. For example, you can:

• Connect switches to each other with high-speed links

• Link to high-speed servers

• Provide 10/100/1000M copper and 1000M/10G fiber connectivity

• Connect up to six switches in a stack to create a high-port-capacity solution with a single

point of administration

The NETGEAR GS752TXS Smart Switch also provides the benefit of administrative

management with a complete package of features for the observation, configuration, and

control of the network. With a Web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI), the switch’s many

capabilities can be viewed and used in a simple and intuitive manner. The switch’s

management features include configuration for port and switch information, VLAN for traffic

control, port trunking for increased bandwidth, and Class of Service (CoS) for traffic

prioritization. These features provide better understanding and control of the network. Initial

discovery of the switch on the network requires the Smart Control Center program, a utility

that runs on a PC.

The NETGEAR GS752TXS Smart Switch can be free standing, stacked with other switches,

or rack mounted in a wiring closet or equipment room. It is IEEE-compliant and offers low

latency for high-speed networking. All ports can automatically negotiate to the highest speed.

This capability makes the switch ideal for environments that have a mix of Ethernet, Fast

Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, or 10 Gigabit Ethernet devices. In addition, all RJ-45 ports

operate in half-duplex or full-duplex mode. The maximum segment length is 328 feet (100

meters) over Category 5 Unshielded Twisted-Pair (UTP) cable.

Features

The following list identifies the key features of the GS752TXS Smart Switch:

• Forty-eight 10/100/1000 Mbps auto-sensing Gigabit-Ethernet switching ports.

• Four dedicated 1000M/10G SFP+ fiber ports.

• Full NETGEAR Smart Switch functionality.

• Full compatibility with IEEE standards:

• IEEE 802.3i (10BASE-T)

• IEEE 802.3u (100BASE-TX)

• IEEE 802.3ab (1000BASE-T)

GS752TXS Smart Switch Hardware Installation Guide

• IEEE 802.3z (1000BASE-x)

• IEEE802.aq (10GBASE-LRM)

• IEEE802.3ae (10GBASE Ethernet)

• IEEE802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet)

• IEEE 802.3x (Full-duplex flow control)

• Autosensing and auto-negotiating capabilities for all ports.

• Auto Uplink™ on all ports to make the right connection.

• Automatic address learning function to build the packet-forwarding information table. The

table contains up to 16K Media Access Control (MAC) addresses.

• Store-and-Forward transmission to remove bad packets from the network.

• Full-duplex IEEE 802.3x pause frame flow control.

• Active flow control to minimize packet loss and frame drops.

• Half-duplex backpressure control.

• Per port LEDs and power LED.

• Internal open frame power supply.

• Standard NETGEAR 7xx series chassis.

• NETGEAR Green product series power-saving features:

• Automatic power consumption adjustment based on the RJ-45 cable length.

• Per port automatic power down when the port link is down.

Stacking

A stack can be controlled and managed from a single unit called the master unit. Any other

unit member of the stack is named stack slave member.

In particular, firmware can be downloaded from the stack master to the other units in the

stack.

A unit serving as Stack Master runs the fully operational software of a switch. In addition, it

runs the master part of the Distributed Switching Application that configures and manages all

other units in the stack. Generally, the master operates the remote Slave’s low-level drivers,

through the Distributed Switching application part that is running in the context of the Slave.

During the Stacking setup, the switches will auto-select one as the Stacking Master. All other

devices are named as slave stack members, and assigned a unique Unit ID. One of the slave

units is designated as the backup master. The backup master acts as a slave stack master,

but can become a stack master in the event of failure of the stack master. In the default

configuration, the master and backup master are assigned unit IDs of 1 and 2, respectively.

The administrator can use the Web interface to configure different ID assignments. The Stack

Master provides a Single point of control and management as well as a single interface in

which to control and manage the stack.

Switch software is downloaded separately for each stack member. However, all units in the

stack must be running the same software version.

Chapter 1. Introduction |9

GS752TXS Smart Switch Hardware Installation Guide

A stack unit can operate in one of the following Modes:

• Standalone unit runs as a general switch. The standalone unit does not run the stacking

application until it is connected to a stack.

• The Master unit manages the entire stack, and is responsible for the entire stack

configuration. All protocols run in the context of the Master unit. It updates and

synchronizes the Backup master.

• A master-backup unit runs as a slave unit as described above, and in addition, it

continuously monitors the existence and operation of the stack master. If the master unit

fails, the master-backup unit will assume the stack-master role. (“Switchover”).

• A slave unit only runs a slave version of the Distributed Switching Algorithm, which allows

the applications running on the Master unit’s CPU to control and manage the resources of

the slave unit.
