Introduction
This hardware installation guide is for the following NETGEAR ProSAFE®Smart Managed Switches:
•Model GS510TLP ProSAFE 8-Port Gigabit Smart Managed Switch with PoE+ and 2 SFP Ports (75W total
PoE power budget)
•Model GS510TPP ProSAFE 8-Port Gigabit Smart Managed Switch with PoE+ and 2 SFP Ports (190W total
PoE power budget)
These models provide eight 10/100/1000M BASE-T RJ-45 copper ports plus two dedicated SFP 1G ports.
This hardware installation guide complements the installation guide that came with your switch.The Resource
CD that came with your switch includes software and additional documentation and support resources.
This chapter serves as an introduction to the switch and includes the following sections:
•Overview
•Features
•Safety Instructions and Warnings

Overview
The switch provides eight 10/100/1000M BASE-T RJ-45 copper ports that support nonstop 10/100/1000M
Layer 2 and Layer 3 networks.Two additional ports can accept small form-factor pluggable (SFP) 1G fiber
optical modules.
Using the 1G ports, you can create high-speed connections to a server, network attached storage (NAS)
system, or backbone network.For example, you can do the following:
•Connect switches to each other with high-speed links
•Link to high-speed servers
•Provide 10/100/1000M copper and 1G fiber connectivity
The switch provides administrative management options that let you configure, monitor, and control the
network.Using the web browser-based management interface, you can configure the switch and the network,
including the ports, the managementVLAN,VLANs for traffic control, link aggregation for increased bandwidth,
quality of service (QoS) for prioritizing traffic, and network security.
Initial discovery of the switch on the network requires the Smart Control Center program, which runs on a
Windows-based computer and is included on the resource CD.If you do not use aWindows-based computer,
get the IP address of the switch from the DHCP server in the network or use an IP scanner utility.
After discovery, you can configure the switch using the web browser-based management interface for
advanced setup and configuration of features, or the Smart Control Center program for very basic setup.
For more information, see the user manual that you can download from downloadcenter.netgear.com.
You can install the switch freestanding or rack mounted in a wiring closet or equipment room.The switch
is IEEE compliant and offers low latency for high-speed networking.All ports can automatically negotiate
to the highest speed, which makes the switch very suitable for a mixed environment with Fast Ethernet and
Gigabit Ethernet devices.
Use Category 5e (Cat 5e) or higher rated Ethernet cables terminated with RJ-45 connectors to make 1-Gigibit
connections.
Features
The switches include the following key hardware features:
•8 ports of Gigabit Ethernet with 8 PoE+ capable ports + 2 dedicated SFP Fiber Ports.
•PoE requirements:
-8 ports PoE+ (802.3at) capable
-Total PoE power budget of 75W for the GS510TLP
-Total PoE power budget of 190W for the GS510TPP
•MAC Table Size: 16K entries.

Safety Instructions andWarnings
Use the following safety guidelines to ensure your own personal safety and to help protect your system from
potential damage.
To reduce the risk of bodily injury, electrical shock, fire, and damage to the equipment, observe the following
precautions:
•This product is designed for indoor use only in a controlled temperature (0–50oC) and humidity-controlled
(90% maximum relative humidity, non-condensing) environment.
Any device that is located outdoors and connected to this product must be properly grounded and surge
protected.
To the extend permissible by applicable law, failure to follow these guidelines could result in damage
to your NETGEAR product which may not be covered by NETGEAR’s warranty.
•Observe and follow service markings:
-Do not service any product except as explained in your system documentation.
-Opening or removing covers that are marked with the triangular symbol with a lightning bolt can
expose you to electrical shock.We recommend that only a trained technician services components
inside these compartments.
If any of the following conditions occur, unplug the product from the electrical outlet and replace the part
or contact your trained service provider:
-The power cable, extension cable, or plug is damaged.
-An object fell into the product.
-The product was exposed to water.
-The product was dropped or damaged.
-The product does not operate correctly when you follow the operating instructions.
•Keep your system away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling vents.
•Do not spill food or liquids on your system components, and never operate the product in a wet
environment.If the system gets wet, see the appropriate section in your troubleshooting guide, or contact
your trained service provider.
•Do not push any objects into the openings of your system. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by
shorting out interior components.
•Use the product only with approved equipment.
•Allow the product to cool before removing covers or touching internal components.
•Operate the product only from the type of external power source indicated on the electrical ratings label.
If you are not sure of the type of power source required, consult your service provider or local power
company
•To avoid damaging your system, be sure that the voltage selection switch (if provided) on the power
supply is set to match the power at your location:
Introduction

ProSAFE 8-Port Gigabit Smart Managed Switch with PoE+ and 2 SFP Ports

-115V, 60 Hz in most of North and South America and some Far Eastern countries such as South
Korea and Taiwan
-100V, 50 Hz in eastern Japan and 100V, 60 Hz in western Japan
-230V, 50 Hz in most of Europe, the Middle East, and the Far East
•Be sure that attached devices are electrically rated to operate with the power available in your location.
•Use only approved power cables. If you were not provided with a power cable for your system or for
any AC-powered option intended for your system, purchase a power cable approved for your country.
The power cable must be rated for the product and for the voltage and current marked on the product
electrical ratings label.The voltage and current rating of the cable must be greater than the ratings
marked on the product.
•To help prevent electric shock, plug the system and peripheral power cables into properly grounded
electrical outlets.
•The peripheral power cables are equipped with three-prong plugs to help ensure proper grounding.Do
not use adapter plugs or remove the grounding prong from a cable.If you must use an extension cable,
use a three-wire cable with properly grounded plugs.
•Observe extension cable and power strip ratings. Make sure that the total ampere rating of all products
plugged into the extension cable or power strip does not exceed 80 percent of the ampere ratings limit
for the extension cable or power strip.
•To help protect your system from sudden, transient increases and decreases in electrical power, use a
surge suppressor, line conditioner, or uninterruptible power supply (UPS).
•Position system cables and power cables carefully. Route cables so that they cannot be stepped on or
tripped over.Be sure that nothing rests on any cables.
•Do not modify power cables or plugs.Consult a licensed electrician or your power company for site
modifications.
•Always follow your local and national wiring rules.
