A feature-rich, business-class router that’s 10GbE- ready, easy to manage and priced right for SMBs
Netgear has traditionally offered an outstanding range of the best network switches and wireless access points (WAPs) for small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs), but routers have always been conspicuous by their absence. Not any more: the PR60X Pro fills this void in Netgear’s product portfolio by delivering a 10GbE-ready solution offering plenty of routing capabilities, dual WAN failover, support for up to 30 site-to-site IPsec VPNs and an integral firewall.
Powered by a 2.2GHz quad-core ARM A73 CPU partnered by 2GB of DDR4 memory, this slimline 1U rack unit offers a 10GbE copper port configurable for LAN or WAN duties, a 2.5GbE WAN port and three 2.5GbE LAN ports, all of which are the multi-gigabit variety. You get a 10GbE SFP+ uplink port for long-distance connections over fiber, and a neat touch is its status LEDs are presented front and back so you can rack-mount it in either orientation.
Deployment scenarios are manifold since the PR60X Pro can be used to head up a small office network and provide secure internet access to all connected devices. Larger businesses with regional offices can place a router in each location and link them together over site-to-site VPNs.
The PR60X supports a standalone mode plus Insight cloud management and includes a one-year Insight subscription in the price.
