With a Netgear switch, you create extra connections to integrate devices into your network via a wire. There are different types of Netgear switches, ranging from 5 to 48 Ethernet ports. Choose a Netgear plug and play switch to create extra network connections right away or a Netgear managed switch to set up your network entirely to your liking. Netgear cloud managed switches with Insight can even be managed via the cloud, in the same environment as your Netgear access points.
