Netgear FS108P ProSafe 8-Port Fast Ethernet 4x PoE Unmanaged Switch | Wty
Netgear FS108P ProSafe — 8-Port Fast Ethernet Switch with 4x PoE
The Netgear FS108P ProSafe is a certified refurbished 8-port 10/100 unmanaged switch with 4 IEEE 802.3af PoE ports — delivering power and data over a single Cat5 cable to access points, IP cameras, and VoIP phones. Backed by a 12-month Reboot IT warranty.
Key Benefits
- 8 x 10/100 Fast Ethernet ports: Full-duplex switching on all ports — connect up to 8 wired devices with Auto Uplink (MDI/MDIX) for any cable type
- 4 x IEEE 802.3af PoE ports: Power access points, IP cameras, VoIP phones, or other PoE devices via a single Cat5 cable — no separate power outlet needed at the device
- Smart PoE protection: Auto-sensing algorithm only supplies power to compliant 802.3af devices — protects non-PoE equipment from accidental power delivery
- Auto Uplink (MDI/MDIX): Automatically detects speed, duplex, and cable type — straight-through or crossover cables both work without manual configuration
- Plug-and-play unmanaged operation: No configuration software needed — just connect and it works, ideal for simple deployments where managed switching isn't required
- Compact desktop form factor: Small footprint suitable for shelf, desktop, or simple rack deployment in small office or retail environments
Performance in Use
The FS108P is an affordable way to add PoE to a small network without buying a full managed PoE switch. In a small office or retail environment, it handles the common use case of powering a couple of wireless access points or IP security cameras from a central point — eliminating the need to run power cables to ceiling or wall-mount locations.
The auto-sensing PoE circuit is a practical safety feature: if you plug in a non-PoE device by mistake, the switch recognises it and doesn't apply power, protecting your equipment. When a PoE device is disconnected, power is cut immediately — no residual voltage on the port.
As an unmanaged switch, the FS108P offers no VLAN, QoS, or port management — all traffic shares the same broadcast domain. For basic connectivity and PoE power delivery in small deployments this is fine, but if you need network segmentation or traffic prioritisation you'll want a managed PoE switch instead.

Frequently Asked Questions
What power supply does this unit require?
No power supply is included with this unit. The FS108P uses a 12V DC external power adapter. The Netgear part number for the original PSU is PWR-10000S. Third-party compatible adapters with matching voltage and connector are also an option — verify specs before purchasing.
How many PoE devices can I connect?
Up to 4 PoE devices on ports 1–4. Total PoE power budget varies depending on the PSU used — ensure your power supply can deliver sufficient watts for your connected PoE devices.
Does it support Gigabit speeds?
No — the FS108P is a Fast Ethernet switch with maximum 100 Mbps per port. For Gigabit PoE, you'll need a different model such as the Netgear GS308P.
Can I use proprietary PoE devices (non-802.3af)?
The FS108P only powers devices compliant with IEEE 802.3af. Proprietary PoE or passive PoE devices are not powered — the smart sensing circuit protects non-standard devices from receiving power.
What warranty is included?
A 12-month Reboot IT warranty is included covering hardware defects and failures. Our Melbourne team handles all warranty claims directly.
What are the shipping costs?
Shipping costs apply based on size and destination — rates are calculated at checkout.
12-Month Warranty — Reboot IT
Every Netgear FS108P sold by Reboot IT is professionally tested across all switching ports and PoE functionality before dispatch. This unit comes with a full 12-month warranty covering hardware defects and failures. Note: no power supply is included — a compatible PSU must be sourced separately.
Reboot IT has been sourcing and refurbishing enterprise networking equipment since 2001. Get proven PoE switching at a fraction of new cost — backed by real local support. Visit reboot-it.com.au or contact our Melbourne team directly.
