NETGEAR, the provider of networking devices that power today’s smart home and small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs), has set a new standard in flexibility for networking switches with the introduction of its revolutionary, industry-first 5-speed Multi-Gigabit switching products. All of the devices in your business, small office or home can now run at their individual highest speeds as the intelligent ports on the switches automatically adapt to the optimal speed required on a per-port basis. Businesses are able to combine legacy Ethernet speeds like 100 Mbps or 1Gbps with 10 Gbps and now 2.5 and 5 Gbps for the newest devices, without needing to install expensive new cabling to alleviate speed barriers.

 Other 10-Gigabit switches provide a standard 1-Gigabit connectivity to any device requiring less than 10Gbps, but the new NETGEAR Multi-Gigabit Switches provide additional options for 2.5 and 5 Gbps if the device and cabling support it. Each of the multi-speed copper Ethernet ports automatically detects the speed requested by the connected device, the quality of the cabling and provides the appropriate connection at one of five speeds.

The newest high-performance networking devices such as  network cards, gaming PCs, desktop PCs, servers, and AC Wave 2 Wireless Access Points now offer both 2.5-Gigabit or 5-Gigabit connectivity. Therefore, the multi-speed capabilities of the NETGEAR Switches make them the perfect plug-and-play solution for taking advantage of the full potential for performance and coverage offered by these modern, high-speed devices.

“The industry-first Multi-Gigabit Switches we’re introducing today enable us to offer a break-through flexibility in cost-effective Ethernet switching that SMBs have been waiting for,” explained Marthesh Nagendra, Country Manager, India and SAARC, NETGEAR. “New products today aren’t only 1 Gigabit or 10 Gigabit; they operate at speeds in between. It is similar to the old Brothers Grimm fairytale of Goldilocks — each device on your network has a switching speed that is ‘just right’ for it. With our new 5-Speed Multi-Gigabit Ethernet Switches, we help your newest devices reach their maximum potential, including at 2.5 or 5 Gbps speeds over existing cabling.”
