Netgear ProSafe JFS524E
$145.00
Released November, 2009
The Pros:Runs energy efficient, doesn't use a lot of power to operate. Feature-rich enough that it accounts for most special cases. QoS ensures that multiple streams run consistently without conflicts.
The Cons:Can only do rate limiting on all the ports at once. Can't manage it through a web browser, need to install applications. No way to tell the duplex of any port on the switch.
The Netgear ProSafe JFS524E is a 10/100 network switch for office environments where users tend to use a lot of bandwidth. It has 24 ports and is rack mountable for larger networks, and can handle Virtual LANs if you want to segment your network into pieces.
