CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
This installation guide describes the NETGEAR FS726 and FS750 Modular Fast
Ethernet Switches.
NETGEAR’s FS726 and FS750 are expandable, high-performance, IEEE-compliant
network switches designed for users who require a large number of ports and want the
high-speed capability of 10/100 switching to eliminate bottlenecks, boost performance,
and increase productivity. Both switches are designed with front module bays that will
accommodate either copper gigabit modules or fiber gigabit modules for high-speed
connection to a server or your network backbone. Built-in modularity gives you the flex-
ibility to buy according to your immediate needs, then add to your system later. You can
purchase the optimal combination of copper and fiber gigabit modules for your network
– both the same or one of each, as either will function in each module bay.To simplify
installation, both switch models are shipped ready for use, with no configuration
required. Everything necessary for setup comes in the box.
