Netgear GSM4230PX-100NAS AV LINE M4250-26G4XF-POE+ 24X1G POE+ 480
Product Overview
The NETGEAR AV Line M4250-26G4XF-PoE+ is a fully managed switch engineered specifically for AV-over-IP. This M4250-26G4XF-PoE+ AV switch delivers 24 Gigabit PoE+ copper ports with a 480W PoE budget, two 1G copper uplinks, and four 1G/10G SFP+ fiber ports in a 1U chassis. A dedicated AV web GUI, certified audio and video profiles, and NETGEAR IGMP Plus make it straightforward to deploy reliable, low-latency Dante, NDI, and Crestron NVX media networks. The unit is sold under NETGEAR part number GSM4230PX-100NAS.
Product Description
The M4250-26G4XF-PoE+ provides 24 RJ45 PoE+ ports for powering cameras, displays, access points, and AV endpoints, backed by a 480W total PoE budget conforming to 802.3af/at. Two additional 1G copper ports and four 1G/10G SFP+ fiber cages handle uplinks and inter-switch connectivity across a 132 Gbps non-blocking fabric spanning all 30 ports, with the 10G SFP+ uplinks giving headroom for larger video deployments. The AV Line operating mode presents a dedicated AV web GUI with color-coded, port-based profiles for audio (Dante, Q-SYS, AES67, and AVB with a separately sold license) and video (AMX SVSI, Crestron NVX, Q-SYS, NDI, and Dante), plus mixed audio/video/control profiles. NETGEAR IGMP Plus along with Auto-Trunk and Auto-LAG simplify multi-switch interconnect for plug-and-play multicast handling. A full Layer 2/Layer 3 engine adds static, RIP, and PIM routing, a DHCP server, and PTPv2 timing. For AV-rack integration, the chassis supports reversible front- or rear-facing port mounting, selectable fan modes (fanless, quiet, cool), and VESA/clamp mounting points.
