NETGEAR GSM4352S — M4300-52G Stackable Managed Switch with 48x1G and 4x10G including 2x10GBASE-T and 2xSFP+ Layer 3 (GSM4352S)

NETGEAR M4300‑52G Fully Managed Gigabit Switch for SMB Core and Access Networks

The NETGEAR M4300‑52G is a fully managed Layer 3 Gigabit Ethernet switch designed for
small to mid‑size business and mid‑enterprise environments that require high port density,
enterprise‑grade routing, and long‑term scalability without Power over Ethernet. As part of the
NETGEAR M4300 Stackable Switch Series, it delivers reliability, high availability, and advanced
network control for access‑layer and aggregation deployments.

High‑Density Gigabit Ethernet Connectivity

The M4300‑52G provides 48 × Gigabit Ethernet ports, offering ample connectivity for
user endpoints, servers, printers, and downstream switches. This high port density makes it ideal
for wiring closets and core locations where large numbers of Gigabit connections are required
without PoE overhead.

Flexible High‑Speed Uplink Options

Designed for scalable network architectures, the switch includes high‑speed uplink capability
to support aggregation and backbone connectivity. These uplinks allow the M4300‑52G to integrate
seamlessly with higher‑speed distribution or core switches, helping businesses scale bandwidth
as demand increases.

Enterprise‑Class Layer 3 Switching

Built on NETGEAR’s proven M4300 architecture, the M4300‑52G supports advanced Layer 2 and
Layer 3 features such as VLAN segmentation, inter‑VLAN routing, traffic prioritisation,
and enhanced security controls. These capabilities allow businesses to build segmented,
resilient networks that support voice, video, and data with consistent performance.

High Availability and Stackable Architecture

The M4300‑52G supports virtual chassis stacking with non‑stop forwarding and hitless failover,
allowing multiple switches to operate as a single logical system. This design improves redundancy,
simplifies management, and ensures continuous network operation even during maintenance or failures.

Simplified Management and Business‑Ready Design

A comprehensive web‑based management interface, command‑line support, and compatibility with
industry‑standard management protocols make the M4300‑52G straightforward to deploy and manage.
Its 1U rack‑mount form factor fits cleanly into wiring closets and server rooms,
making it suitable for both edge and aggregation roles.
