Netgear GS348 48-Port Gigabit Ethernet Rackmount Unmanaged Switch

Meet the backbone of reliable, scalable wired networking for small offices and home workspaces: the Netgear GS348 48-Port Gigabit Ethernet Rackmount Unmanaged Switch. Designed for fast, stable connectivity, this 48-port switch delivers seamless, plug-and-play expansion to a growing LAN without the complexity of managed devices. With a sturdy 1U rack-mountable chassis, it fits neatly into network closets, equipment racks, or dedicated server rooms, keeping cabling neat and performance consistent. Ideal for businesses that need to connect a large number of desktops, printers, NAS devices, IP cameras, VoIP phones, and other networked gear, the GS348 is a practical, cost-efficient upgrade from smaller switches or daisy-chaining consumer-grade hubs. The Netgear 300 Series heritage brings dependable hardware, robust performance, and straightforward setup, helping organizations elevate their network capacity today while staying within budget for tomorrow’s needs.

  • 48-port Gigabit Ethernet architecture: Each RJ-45 port supports 10/100/1000 Mbps, enabling fast, full-duplex data transfers across a broad array of devices. This setup is ideal for high-bandwidth tasks like large-file transfers, multimedia streaming, backups, and multi-user workstations, ensuring every connected device enjoys consistent access to LAN resources without bottlenecks.
  • Unmanaged plug-and-play convenience: The GS348 is designed for immediate deployment with no complex configuration. Simply connect it to your router or gateway, attach your devices to the 48 ports, and you’re ready to go. Auto-Negotiation and Auto-MDIX on all ports simplify connections to a mix of devices and uplinks, reducing the time to get a working network up and running.
  • Rack-mountable 1U form factor: Engineered for professional IT environments, the GS348 ships with mounting hardware to fit standard 19-inch racks. Its compact footprint helps keep equipment organized in space-constrained data closets, while multiple units can be stacked or deployed in larger setups to scale LAN capacity as offices grow.
  • Reliability and quiet operation: Built to operate continuously in business environments, this switch emphasizes stable, silent performance suitable for open-plan offices, meeting rooms, or home offices where noise can be a distraction. A solid metal chassis and energy-conscious design contribute to a durable, long-lasting network backbone.
  • Economical, scalable solution for growing networks: For teams expanding beyond a handful of devices, the GS348 delivers a cost-effective upgrade path. It supports a dense, stable LAN that can accommodate more desktops, printers, IP cameras, and other networked devices, enabling smoother collaboration, centralized backups, and easier resource sharing across the organization.

Works great for scent work! Bounce is great for air retrieve!
Size: 2-pack, Style: Duo, Size: 2-pack, Style: Duo
My dog doesn’t know he loves them yet but I do! They are a little softer so when we do air retrieve, I don’t have to worry as much about his teeth! I’m hoping he will learn to find them by smell vs sight. We often play in the evenings and he tends to loose his ball. Love chuck it! Right now, we have about 10 chuck it balls! The tennis balls don’t work for air retrieve! Chuckit does!!! Love the thrower too! Saves my arm!!!!

I guess the smell is offputting
Size: 2-pack, Style: Duo
My dog loves chocolate stuff. But for some reason, wasn’t a huge fan of these balls. She played with them a little bit, but they’re not her favorite.

Our German Sheppard loves these
Size: Medium
These cost a bit more than tennis balls, but they are so much nicer and longer lasting. For starters, they stay cleaner than tennis balls because they’re smooth rubber. Dirt won’t build up on them and if anything does stick, like grass or soil, it falls off once the dog slobber dries. They’re also thick, so they don’t fall apart or blow out like a normal tennis ball does in our dog’s jaws after 30 seconds. Our GS chomps on these like crazy and the only damage they’ve suffered is a crack that developed from the edge of the hole, but the crack is growing very slowly and none of these balls have totally failed yet. The balls do whistle when thrown ant high speed and that may help a dog track and locate it, but I’m not sure. Our neighbors hear the whistling too so it’s far from silent. Lastly the orange ball is easy to locate out in our yard, but the dark blue practically disappears.

Great for smaller dogs
Size: Small
These two balls are perfect for the smaller mouthed dog that loves to play fetch. These balls are not only super durable (lots of teeth biting), but float in the baby pool we use for our miniature dachshunds. The value here is much better than you’d find anywhere else. The noise, if bitten hard enough, was “low” at best. Easy to spot/find if overthrown. Will definitely buy again once these are in bad repair; so far, so good-love these for my fur babies!

My dogs favorite balls
Size: Medium
These are great for my dog who always has to have a ball in her mouth. Not too hard so I don't have to worry about her teeth. They last for ever. They do lose their shape a little over time (like I said, she always has a ball in her mouth) they become a little oval in shape. They still bounce, she still chases it and she still chews on it so I don't think she notices or cares. I've gotten her a bag full of these over time and I have only seen one that she chewed a chunk out.
