High-Performance Fiber Connectivity with PoE++ Support
The NETGEAR M4350-24F4V AV Line Managed Switch offers 24 SFP+ fiber ports, enabling high-speed, long-distance connections between AV devices in large AV-over-IP networks. The 4 1G/10GBASE-T PoE++ ports provide up to 90W of power per port, making it ideal for powering AV equipment such as PTZ cameras, interactive displays, and audio systems. This combination of fiber and PoE++ copper ports offers maximum flexibility for AV professionals, delivering both reliable network connectivity and power.
Optimized for AV-over-IP Deployments
The M4350-24F4V is optimized for AV-over-IP environments, with IGMP Snooping and Multicast routing capabilities to manage multicast traffic efficiently. This ensures smooth, synchronized distribution of AV streams across multiple devices without overloading the network. The non-blocking architecture guarantees full-speed data transfer on all ports, making it ideal for real-time applications like live event production, digital signage, and broadcasting, where low latency is crucial.
Advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 Networking Capabilities
The switch supports both Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching, offering advanced networking features to ensure scalability and control in professional AV environments. Layer 2 features such as VLANs and Quality of Service (QoS) allow for traffic prioritization, ensuring AV data streams are handled smoothly. Layer 3 features like OSPF, RIP, and VRRP enable dynamic routing and redundancy, making the M4350-24F4V well-suited for larger, complex AV networks that need scalable, reliable traffic management.
Low Latency and Quiet Operation
Designed to handle the demands of real-time AV applications, the M4350-24F4V minimizes latency and jitter, ensuring that audio and video streams are synchronized and uninterrupted. This makes it perfect for use in environments such as live events, broadcast studios, and interactive AV systems. Additionally, the switch operates quietly, making it ideal for deployment in noise-sensitive areas such as conference rooms, recording studios, and control centers.
Pre-Configured AV Profiles for Easy Setup
Setting up an AV-over-IP network is simplified with the M4350-24F4V’s pre-configured AV profiles, which optimize network performance for AV traffic out of the box. These profiles reduce the complexity of deployment, allowing AV professionals to quickly set up reliable AV networks without needing to manually configure complex settings, ensuring a fast and efficient installation process.
Modular and Stackable for Network Growth
The M4350-24F4V features a modular and stackable design, allowing multiple switches to be combined into a single, larger network. This stacking capability increases the available port count while simplifying management, as all stacked switches can be managed from a central point. The modularity of the M4350 series ensures that the network can expand easily as more AV devices are added or as system requirements evolve, making it a future-proof solution for growing AV infrastructures.
Ideal Use Cases
The NETGEAR M4350-24F4V is ideal for AV-over-IP applications that require a mix of long-distance fiber connectivity and PoE++ support. It is perfect for professional AV installations in live event production, corporate AV systems, digital signage, education facilities, and broadcast environments. Its combination of high-performance fiber ports, PoE++ support, and AV-optimized features make it a versatile and reliable solution for large-scale AV deployments requiring both power and low-latency performance.
