Stream AV over IP with switches from NETGEAR. Get the best deals on top-quality hardware and elevate your setup today. NETGEAR’s commitment to the Pro AV industry has grown exponentially, thanks to the many partners who work with us to certify operability and ensure complete compatibility. One of our newest strategic collaborations, with the Vizrt Group, has resulted in instant configuration of NDI® on our popular M4250 AV Line of switches through a unique NDI configuration profile.
Key Features:
- Primary Port Speed: 1 Gigabit per second, ensuring fast and reliable data transmission across your network.
- Number of Ports: 12 total ports, including 12 x 2.5G Ethernet ports and 2 x SFP+ ports for fiber-optic connections, offering flexible and high-speed connectivity options.
- PoE Support: None – this switch is designed to handle high-speed data transmission but does not support PoE.
- IGMP Support: Enhanced IGMP Plus™ for optimal multicast traffic management, essential for AV-over-IP systems.
- Jumbo Frame Support: Capable of handling jumbo frames up to 12KB, ensuring efficient large data transfers, ideal for high-quality video streaming and other data-intensive applications.
- Fanless Design: Operates quietly with a fanless design, or at a noise level of 46.4 dB at 25ºC, making it suitable for noise-sensitive environments where fanless operation is necessary.
- Power Consumption:
- System Full Load: 37.9W (129.39 Btu/hr)
- Standby (no ports connected): 14.1W (48.14 Btu/hr)
- AVB: license included for free
The MSM4214X is the perfect choice for high-demand AV installations, offering a combination of performance, power efficiency, and quiet operation. Whether you're managing a network for video streaming, surveillance systems, or other high-speed devices, this switch delivers exceptional reliability and functionality. For audio Dante, Q-SYS and AES67 profiles are available, as well as an AVB profile. AVB is used most often when very low latency is required such as in live performances when lip sync is critical.
