The NETGEAR M4300-52G-PoE+ AV Line Managed Switch offers 48 Gigabit PoE+ ports, each delivering up to 30W of power, ideal for powering AV devices such as IP cameras, speakers, and displays over a single Ethernet cable. The switch also includes 4 10G SFP+ uplink ports, enabling high-speed aggregation or long-distance fiber connections to core network switches. This combination of PoE+ and 10G uplinks ensures seamless integration into AV-over-IP environments, providing ample bandwidth for demanding installations.

Built specifically for AV-over-IP applications, the M4300-52G-PoE+ is optimized to handle multicast traffic efficiently. With IGMP Snooping and Multicast routing, the switch ensures smooth distribution of audio and video streams across multiple devices without overloading the network. Its non-blocking architecture guarantees full-speed data transmission across all ports, making it ideal for real-time AV applications such as live events, digital signage, and corporate AV installations.

The M4300-52G-PoE+ supports both Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching, allowing for flexible, scalable network designs. Layer 2 features like VLANs, Quality of Service (QoS), and Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) enable optimized traffic prioritization and network segmentation, ensuring seamless AV data transmission. Meanwhile, Layer 3 features such as OSPF, RIP, and VRRP provide advanced routing capabilities, making the switch suitable for larger, complex AV networks that require redundancy and high availability.

Designed for low-latency performance, the M4300-52G-PoE+ ensures that audio and video streams remain synchronized with minimal delay, making it ideal for real-time AV applications such as broadcasting, interactive displays, and video conferencing. Additionally, its quiet operation makes it suitable for deployment in noise-sensitive environments like conference rooms, recording studios, and control centers.

The M4300-52G-PoE+ comes with pre-configured AV profiles, streamlining the deployment process for AV-over-IP networks. These profiles are optimized for various AV applications, reducing the need for manual configuration and ensuring that the switch is ready to handle AV traffic efficiently right out of the box. This feature helps AV professionals deploy high-performance networks quickly and effectively.

As part of the M4300 series, the M4300-52G-PoE+ supports modular stacking, allowing multiple switches to be combined into a larger network with centralized management. This stackable design provides flexibility and scalability, ensuring that the network can expand as more AV devices are added or as requirements evolve. The switch’s modular architecture makes it a future-proof solution for growing AV infrastructures.

The NETGEAR M4300-52G-PoE+ is ideal for large-scale AV-over-IP installations requiring high-density PoE+ connectivity and high-speed 10G uplinks. It is well-suited for live event production, corporate AV systems, digital signage, education facilities, and broadcast environments. The switch’s combination of PoE+ power, 10G uplinks, and AV-optimized features makes it a reliable, scalable solution for professional AV installations that demand both power and performance.
