Very Nice Switch!

This switch was installed in a wall-mount rack, so the included power cord couldn't be used, luckily I had a right-angle cord on hand.

Fast switch; Great management UI; Super-easy install

The SmartControl software didn't handle my multiple-adapter machine very well; It would start on the wrong adapter, so I'd go to Adapters tab and change to the correct adapter, it asks to apply the change and close the software, which I agree to, but then when I re-open the software, it defaults to...

Great switch for intermediate needs

This is a good solid switch. It has support for IGMP and other features I was looking for. I tried stressing it out by throwing 12 800Mb multicast video streams at it with 12 deciders each pulling a different stream. The switch handled it flawlessly, so I am quite satisfied with it's performance.

Netgear ProSafe GS724TS

The Netgear ProSafe GS724TS is the closest competitor I've seen to the D-Link xStack DGS-3627 . Its port count and network throughput are similar to those of the D-Link DGS-3627, though it trails a bit on features.

Excellent price; 20-GigE proprietary stacking backbone; Good support for VoIP, video traffic

Dearth of advanced features (including PoE, higher-end security, Ipv6); Can stack only six switches (288-port total)

just works

Ive installed these switches for a couple of clients, and havent had to touch them since the initial configuration. The web interface can be really slow, but if the switch is reliable, then youll never have to use it again anyways.

Reliable; lots of features

Web interface is slow like every netgear smart switch Ive used; A little bit on the loud side, if I recall correctly

Noisy Fan

I wasn't able to use the switch because the fan was too noisy and my client wanted a quite fan in his office. Thanks to B and H for easy shopping.
