Netgear FS728TPv2 PNP

Can I just use Netgear FS728TPv2 as plug and play without using the configuration control center... just need the switch to power a couple poe cameras added to my home network.

Yes. I'd check documentation of the switch and cameras to ensure if POE can be serviced with little or no user configurations needed. Some maybe needed.

The reolink cameras are plug N play.. I just now have to figure out how to get the switch to go into "open mode"... (meaning do I have to configure it with software or just reset it)

With the default config, there is no port security, no ACL, no 802.1x - works like any generic (unmanaged) switch.

  Thanx I was hoping that was the case... I just need the poe ... the switch was cheaper for me than 3 adapters.. and this is definitely an easier way to go....
