NETGEAR JFS524
ProSafe 24-Port Fast Ethernet Unmanaged Switch

Sorry, this product is no longer available, replaced by the GS324-200NAS.
Overview:
The NETGEAR Fast Ethernet Unmanaged Switches series are purposely designed, well built and rigorously tested for small and medium-sized networks where reliability and performance are the keys while Plug-N-Play connectivity and operational cost savings are the must-haves. With a 1U form factor, they can be placed on the desktop or rack-mounted with the included rack-mount kit for professional installation.
The JFS516 and JFS524 come with 16 and 24 ports 10/100Mbps copper ports respectively. They offer energy efficiency features and are compliant with the IEEE 802.3az standard. Both models are fanless for silent operation, business class rugged, and come with a lifetime warranty.
