Netgear switches have proven to be invaluable in various scenarios where there is a need for additional network connections. They are especially popular in locations with limited wall connections, such as labs or rooms in small offices and homes. Users have reported that these switches are reliable and simple to use, making them suitable for smaller customers who do not require managed switches. Additionally, Netgear switches have demonstrated their durability in tough environments like warehouses and packing houses.

One of the key use cases of Netgear switches is the implementation of VLANs to efficiently route traffic to servers or the DMZ, allowing for efficient communication between devices. Netgear switches are also commonly used in SOHO environments, where users are looking for a cost-effective solution without compromising functionality. They are easy to set up and rarely require power cycling, providing consistent uptime.

Netgear switches are useful for linking small workstations and printers when there are limited network drops available. They can also be deployed in legacy data centers to enable remote access to HP ilo ports at a low cost. By deploying Netgear Rackmount switches to server racks, infrastructure engineers were able to provide remote access services to their infrastructure.

Overall, users have found Netgear switches to be dependable and efficient tools for expanding network connectivity and improving communication between devices. Whether it's in a lab, office, warehouse, or data center, these switches offer cost-effective solutions without compromising functionality.

Great for entry-level networking, and the cost-to-quality ratio is great for the average consumer. I've used them in a crawl space that is not climate controlled, and it just works and provides the switching capabilities I need. These are great for users that don't have a ton of experience and can simply try to troubleshoot with a simple power cycle.

We use them in warehouses and outside environments where a highly reliable solution is needed, but temperatures can not be controlled, and humidity is higher than wanted. Here is the Florida warehouse, and externally installed switches only are installed in sealed plastic boxes with little airflow and direct sunlight. This is tough for any switch, but we have found the non-managed Netgear switches seem to be more reliable, requiring fewer reboots and lasting longer.

Most companies have warranty contracts or prefer a specific type of equipment to match their current environment. Smaller environments that don't have a policy for a specific device, or someone looking for a good switch with a low cost would be where I have currently utilized these switches. I don't see why these switches couldn't be used in a larger environment, although I have not tested them in a corporate environment. In home or small office environments, these have worked very well.
