Netgear MS108EUP-100NAS

Product Overview

The NETGEAR MS108EUP is an 8-port multi-gigabit Ultra60 PoE++ Plus switch built for commercial AV networks that need more speed and power than standard Gigabit gear. All eight ports run at 1G/2.5G, with four Ultra60 PoE++ ports delivering up to 60W each and four PoE+ ports delivering up to 30W, backed by a 230W total PoE budget. The Plus management layer adds VLANs, QoS, and IGMP snooping on top of plug-and-play simplicity, and the fanless metal enclosure runs silent. It is a practical edge switch for powering WiFi 6 access points, PTZ cameras, and VoIP endpoints from one compact unit.

Product Description

The MS108EUP sits between an unmanaged switch and a full smart switch, giving AV integrators the segmentation and traffic-control features that matter without a steep configuration curve. Each of the eight 2.5GBASE-T copper ports auto-negotiates 100M/1G/2.5G over existing Cat5e, so you can move multi-gig WiFi 6 access points and 2.5G cameras onto the network without recabling. Ports 1-4 supply Ultra60 PoE++ (802.3bt) at up to 60W per port, and ports 5-8 supply PoE+ (802.3at) at up to 30W, all drawing from a shared 230W PoE budget. Advanced per-port PoE controls and PoE scheduling let you power-cycle a frozen camera or AP and conserve energy after hours.

The non-blocking 40Gbps fabric forwards traffic at wire speed across all ports, while VLAN tagging, port-based VLANs, QoS, and IGMP snooping keep AV-over-IP multicast, voice, and data traffic properly separated. The browser-based GUI handles setup, and features like jumbo frame support, rate limiting, loop prevention, broadcast storm control, and cable test round out the toolset. The fanless design makes it suitable for a conference room credenza or equipment closet where noise matters.

Key Features

• Ultra60 PoE++ power — Four ports deliver up to 60W (802.3bt) and four deliver up to 30W (802.3at) from a 230W budget for APs, cameras, and phones.
• Multi-gig 2.5G ports — All eight RJ-45 ports auto-negotiate 100M/1G/2.5G over Cat5e to support WiFi 6 access points and 2.5G endpoints.
• Plus management — VLANs, QoS, and IGMP snooping add segmentation and traffic prioritization through an easy web GUI.
• Non-blocking 40Gbps fabric — Store-and-forward switching moves traffic at wire speed across every port.
• Advanced PoE controls — Per-port PoE enable/disable, power limits, and scheduling allow remote power management of connected devices.
• Fanless silent operation — A metal enclosure with zero acoustic noise suits quiet rooms and AV equipment closets.
• Flexible installation — Desktop or wall-mount options fit compact AV and equipment-rack spaces.
• Limited Lifetime warranty — Backed by NETGEAR hardware coverage and optional support tiers.

Typical Applications

• Conference room AV systems powering a WiFi 6 access point, PTZ camera, and VoIP phone from one switch
• Huddle room and small meeting space deployments needing multi-gig uplinks for wireless video
• Training room camera and access-point installations using PoE++ for higher-draw devices
• House of worship sanctuaries combining IP cameras and audio endpoints on a segmented VLAN
• Commercial meeting spaces upgrading from Gigabit without recabling

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the MS108EUP power WiFi 6 access points and PTZ cameras at the same time?
Yes. Ports 1-4 provide Ultra60 PoE++ up to 60W each for higher-draw devices like PTZ cameras and multi-gig access points, while ports 5-8 provide PoE+ up to 30W, all within the 230W shared budget.

Do I need new cabling to get 2.5G speeds?
No. The multi-gig ports run 2.5G over existing Cat5e cabling, so you can upgrade access points and endpoints without recabling.

Is this a managed switch?
It is a Plus switch. You get VLANs, QoS, and IGMP snooping through a web browser GUI, which is a step up from unmanaged but simpler than a full smart switch.

How does it fit into an AV-over-IP installation?
VLAN tagging and IGMP snooping let you isolate and optimize multicast AV traffic, voice, and data on the same switch, which suits conference rooms and meeting spaces.

Is the switch quiet enough for a conference room?
Yes. It is fanless with a 0 dBA acoustic rating, so it can sit in a credenza or open room without adding noise.

What warranty and support are included?
The MS108EUP carries a NETGEAR Limited Lifetime hardware warranty, with optional Sprint and Overdrive support tiers for extended technical support and RMA service.
