Introduction
This hardware installation guide complements the installation guide that came with your
switch and applies to the following NETGEAR switch models:
•MS510TXM: 8-Port Multi-Gigabit/10G Ethernet Smart Managed Pro Switch with 2
SFP+ Ports
•MS510TXUP: 8-Port Multi-Gigabit/10G Ethernet Ultra60 PoE++ Smart Managed
Pro Switch with 2 SFP+ Ports
The switch provides eight Gigabit Ethernet multispeed copper ports and two dedicated
SFP+ fiber uplink ports that support 1G and 10G. Four of the multispeed copper ports
support 100M, 1G, and 2.5G and each of the other four multispeed copper ports
supports 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G.
Model MS510TXUP can provide Ultra60 PoE++ (802.3bt) on its eight multispeed copper
ports so that you can let the switch deliver power to PoE++ devices such as WiFi 6 access
points, security cameras, PoE speakers, and LED lighting. Model MS510TXUP can supply
up to 60W PoE++ to each copper port, with a maximum PoE power budget of 295W
across all active PoE++ ports.
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 Gigabit Ethernet multispeed copper ports and two dedicated
SFP+ fiber uplink ports that support 10G and 1G. Four of the multispeed copper ports
support both 1G and 2.5G and each of the other four multispeed copper ports supports
1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G. All copper ports use RJ-45 connectors.
The SFP+ ports require standard small form-factor pluggable (SFP) gigabit interface
converters (GBICs, also referred to as a transceiver modules), which are sold separately
from the switch. The switch integrates 140 Gbps line-rate, full-duplex, nonblocking
switch fabric.
The PoE model supports Ultra60 PoE++ (802.3bt) on all copper ports (that is, up to 60W
PoE++ to each port) with a maximum PoE power budget of 295W across all active PoE++
ports.
Note: For information about application examples, see Applications on page 21.
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. All ports can automatically
negotiate to the highest speed, which makes the switch very suitable for a mixed
environment with multispeed Gigabit Ethernet, Gigabit Ethernet, and Fast Ethernet.
For speeds of 10 Gbps, use Category 6 (Cat 6) cables terminated with RJ-45 connectors;
for speeds from 5 Gbps to 10 Gbps, use Cat 5e cables terminated with RJ-45 connectors;
and for speeds from 10 Mbps to 5 Gbps, including 2.5 Gbps, use Cat 5e or higher-rated
Ethernet cables terminated with RJ-45 connectors.
Features
The switch supports the following key hardware features:
•Four multispeed Ethernet ports (5–8), each of which supports 10G, 5G, 2.5G, 1G,
and 100M.
•Four multispeed Ethernet ports (1–4), each of which supports 2.5G, 1G, and 100M.
•Two dedicated SFP+ fiber uplink ports (9F and 10F), each of which is capable of 10G
and 1G.
•PoE support for model MS510TXUP:
- Eight Ultra60 PoE++ (802.3bt) ports
-Total PoE power budget of 295W for the switch

Safety instructions and warnings
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 temperature-controlled and
humidity-controlled environment. Note the following:
-For more information about the environment in which this product must operate,
see the environmental specifications in the appendix or the data sheet.
-If you want to connect the product to a device located outdoors, the outdoor
device must be properly grounded and surge protected, and you must install an
Ethernet surge protector inline between the indoor product and the outdoor
device. Failure to do so can damage the product.
-Before connecting the product to outdoor cables or devices, see
https://kb.netgear.com/000057103 for additional safety and warranty information.
Failure to follow these guidelines can result in damage to your NETGEAR product,
which might not be covered by NETGEAR’s warranty, to the extent permissible by
applicable law.
•Observe and follow service markings:
- Do not service any product except as explained in your product documentation.
Some devices should never be opened.
-If applicable to your product, 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 power outlet,
and then replace the part or contact your trained service provider:
- Depending on your product, the power adapter, power adapter cable, 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 the product away from radiators and heat sources. Also, do not block cooling
vents.
•Do not spill food or liquids on your product components, and never operate the
product in a wet environment. If the product 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 product. Doing so can cause fire
or electric shock by shorting out interior components.
•Use the product only with approved equipment.
•If applicable to your product, 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, if your product uses a power supply with a voltage
selector, be sure that the selector is set to match the power at your location:
-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.
•Depending on your product, use only a supplied power adapter or approved power
cable:
Hardware Installation Guide9Introduction
8-Port Multi-Gigabit/10G Ethernet (Ultra60 PoE++) Smart Managed Pro Switch with 2 SFP+ Ports

If your product uses a power adapter:
-If you were not provided with a power adapter, contact your local NETGEAR
reseller.
-The power adapter must be rated for the product and for the voltage and current
marked on the product electrical ratings label.
If your product uses a power cable:
-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 power outlets.
•If applicable to your product, 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, power adapter cables, or 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 adapters, power adapter cables, power cables or plugs. Consult
a licensed electrician or your power company for site modifications.
•Always follow your local and national wiring rules.
