The NETGEAR GS308E-400NAS is an 8-port Gigabit Ethernet Easy Smart managed switch for home offices and small networks that need more wired connections plus VLAN and traffic-priority features. Its fanless design supports quiet desk-side use; it connects devices that have their own power, rather than supplying PoE.

Recommended For

  • Home-office users who need more wired connections for a computer, printer, NAS, or desk phone and want a fanless switch that can sit quietly on or near a desk.
  • Home-network hobbyists who want to separate wired devices such as IoT gear or guest-network equipment into VLANs, with a router or firewall handling routing between networks.
  • Small-office users who need an eight-port Gigabit access switch with basic web-based configuration and monitoring beyond what an unmanaged switch provides.
  • Users connecting multicast-heavy devices or services, such as IPTV, who can benefit from IGMP snooping to limit unnecessary multicast traffic across the switch.
