High-Speed 10G Ethernet for AV-over-IP
The NETGEAR M4300-24X AV Line Managed Switch is equipped with 24 10G Ethernet ports, delivering ultra-fast data speeds essential for high-density AV environments. Its 10GBASE-T ports provide high-bandwidth connections for AV devices, ensuring that large volumes of data, such as 4K video streams or uncompressed audio, are transmitted without bottlenecks or delays. This makes it ideal for installations in live event venues, broadcast studios, and corporate AV environments.
Optimized for AV Traffic with Multicast Support
Designed specifically for AV-over-IP applications, the M4300-24X excels in handling multicast traffic, which is crucial for distributing audio and video content across IP networks. IGMP Snooping and Multicast routing allow the switch to efficiently manage large volumes of video streams without overloading the network, providing smooth and synchronized AV transmissions. This switch is optimized to deliver low latency, ensuring real-time media streaming for demanding AV applications.
Layer 2 and Layer 3 Flexibility for Network Scalability
The M4300-24X supports advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 features, providing the flexibility needed to scale networks as they grow. This includes features such as dynamic routing, VLANs, and QoS (Quality of Service), which enable more granular control of traffic and ensure that critical AV data is prioritized. These capabilities allow the switch to be deployed in a variety of network configurations, from smaller AV systems to complex, multi-location installations.
Low Latency and Quiet Operation for AV Applications
In professional AV environments, minimizing latency is critical for maintaining high-quality audio and video performance. The M4300-24X is designed with a non-blocking architecture, ensuring that data is processed quickly and efficiently across all ports. Additionally, the switch operates quietly, with fanless or low-noise cooling options, making it suitable for environments where noise levels need to be kept to a minimum, such as recording studios, control rooms, or conference spaces.
Pre-Configured AV Profiles for Easy Setup
One of the standout features of the M4300-24X is its pre-configured AV profiles, which simplify setup and deployment for AV professionals. These profiles are optimized for common AV-over-IP applications, enabling rapid installation and reducing the complexity of configuring the network. This makes the switch particularly well-suited for professionals who need to quickly deploy reliable AV networking without dealing with extensive manual configuration.
Modular and Stackable Design for Future Expansion
As part of the M4300 series, the 24X switch is modular and stackable, allowing for easy network expansion as AV systems grow or evolve. Multiple M4300 switches can be stacked to increase the number of available ports while maintaining a single point of management. This flexibility ensures that the switch can accommodate future needs, whether it’s additional AV devices, larger network installations, or the introduction of new technologies.
Ideal Use Cases
The NETGEAR M4300-24X AV Line Managed Switch is ideal for use in environments that require high-performance, low-latency networking for AV applications. It is well-suited for live event production, broadcasting, large corporate AV installations, education facilities, and digital signage networks. Its combination of 10G Ethernet ports, AV-optimized features, and easy scalability make it a reliable choice for any professional AV-over-IP deployment.
