GS108LP-100NAS – NETGEAR 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Unmanaged Switch

BRAND NEW WITH FULL NETGEAR WARRANTY!!!

Overview

The GS108LP-100NAS NETGEAR 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet PoE+ Unmanaged Switch is designed for small and medium-sized businesses that need reliable wired connectivity and Power over Ethernet for network-connected devices. It features eight Gigabit Ethernet ports with IEEE 802.3af/802.3at PoE+ support and a standard 60W total PoE budget, enabling businesses to connect compatible wireless access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones without requiring separate power adapters for each device.

With an 8 Gbps non-blocking switching capacity, the GS108LP-100NAS supports simultaneous Gigabit Ethernet traffic across its eight ports. NETGEAR FlexPoE technology allows the PoE budget to be increased by changing the external power adapter to a compatible higher-capacity unit. Supported configurations provide PoE budgets of 60W, 83W, or 123W, depending on the power adapter used.

The switch features a durable metal enclosure, fanless operation, and flexible desktop, wall-mount, or rack-mount installation options. Its unmanaged, plug-and-play design reduces deployment complexity for offices, retail locations, surveillance installations, and small-business networks that need straightforward connectivity with PoE power delivery.

FAQs – GS108LP-100NAS

1. Can the GS108LP-100NAS power IP cameras and wireless access points?

Yes. All eight Ethernet ports support IEEE 802.3af/802.3at PoE/PoE+. The total available power is 60W in the standard configuration, shared among connected devices.

2. Can the PoE power budget be upgraded?

Yes. NETGEAR FlexPoE supports compatible external power adapters. A 90W adapter provides an 83W PoE budget, while a 130W adapter provides a 123W PoE budget. The higher-capacity adapters are purchased separately.

3. Is the GS108LP-100NAS a managed switch?

No. It is an unmanaged switch designed for plug-and-play deployment. It does not provide the configurable VLAN, advanced traffic-management, or centralized switch-administration features associated with managed switches.

4. Does the switch have redundant power supplies?

No built-in redundant power supply is specified. The switch uses one external power adapter. Businesses requiring continuous availability should consider an appropriate backup-power arrangement or a switch designed for redundant power.

5. Can the GS108LP-100NAS be installed in a rack?

Yes. It supports desktop, wall-mount, and rack-mount installation options. Use the supplied mounting accessories and verify the intended rack arrangement before installation.

6. Does the switch require active cooling?

No. The GS108LP-100NAS uses a fanless design for quiet operation. Install it in a suitable indoor environment with adequate clearance for natural heat dissipation.
