High-Power PoE+ Connectivity with 10G Uplinks

The NETGEAR M4250-10G2XF-PoE+ AV Line Managed Switch features 10 Gigabit PoE+ ports, each capable of delivering up to 30W of power to AV devices such as IP cameras, digital displays, and audio equipment. The switch also includes 2 10G SFP+ uplink ports for high-speed aggregation or long-distance fiber connections, making it ideal for seamless integration into larger AV-over-IP networks. This combination of PoE+ power and high-speed uplinks ensures that the switch can handle both data and power demands in professional AV environments.

Optimized for AV-over-IP Performance

Built for AV-over-IP networks, the M4250-10G2XF-PoE+ features IGMP Snooping and Multicast routing, efficiently managing multicast traffic to ensure smooth, synchronized AV streaming across multiple endpoints. Its non-blocking architecture guarantees full-speed data transmission across all ports, preventing bottlenecks and ensuring optimal performance for real-time AV applications such as live events, digital signage, and corporate AV installations.

Advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 Switching

The switch supports both Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching, offering flexibility in network design and scalability. Layer 2 features such as VLANs, Quality of Service (QoS), and Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) allow for traffic segmentation and prioritization, ensuring AV streams are handled efficiently. Layer 3 functionalities, including dynamic routing protocols like OSPF, RIP, and VRRP, provide efficient traffic management and redundancy, making the switch suitable for larger, more complex AV networks.

Low Latency and Quiet Operation

The M4250-10G2XF-PoE+ is designed for low-latency performance, ensuring that real-time AV applications, such as live broadcasting, interactive displays, and video conferencing, maintain synchronized audio and video streams with minimal delay. Additionally, the switch operates quietly, making it ideal for noise-sensitive environments such as control centers, conference rooms, and studios.

Pre-Configured AV Profiles for Easy Deployment

Deploying AV-over-IP networks is simplified with the M4250-10G2XF-PoE+ thanks to its pre-configured AV profiles. These profiles are tailored to optimize the switch for various AV applications, minimizing setup time and reducing configuration complexity. This feature ensures quick, reliable installation, making the switch ready to handle AV traffic right out of the box.

Modular and Stackable for Network Growth

As part of the modular M4250 series, the M4250-10G2XF-PoE+ offers stackable design capabilities, allowing multiple switches to be combined for increased port capacity and streamlined management. This modular approach ensures that the network can scale easily as more devices are added, making it a future-proof solution for growing AV infrastructures.

Ideal Use Cases

The NETGEAR M4250-10G2XF-PoE+ is ideal for AV-over-IP deployments requiring high-powered PoE+ connectivity and 10G uplinks. It is perfect for live event production, corporate AV systems, digital signage networks, education facilities, and broadcast studios. The switch’s combination of PoE+ power, 10G uplinks, and AV-optimized features makes it a reliable, scalable solution for professional AV installations requiring both power and performance.
