Netgear XSM4316PA-100NES M4300-16X MANAGED SWITCH PERP APS299W PSU

Product Overview

The NETGEAR M4300-16X (XSM4316PA-100NES) is a stackable Layer 3 managed switch with sixteen 10G Multi-Gig copper ports, each capable of 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G speeds with 30W PoE+. As an SDVoE-Ready multi-gig PoE+ switch with Zero-Touch multicast, the M4300-16X targets AV-over-IP video distribution, multi-gig wireless access, and server and storage interconnect. The half-width chassis mounts one or two units in a single 1U rack space, and this unit ships with the APS299W power supply. Creation Networks supplies the XSM4316PA-100NES to integrators specifying high-bandwidth managed switching for commercial AV and IT.

Product Description

The M4300-16X provides sixteen 10G Multi-Gig RJ45 ports, every one auto-negotiating across 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G to match Wi-Fi 6/6E access points, AV-over-IP encoders and decoders, and other high-bandwidth endpoints. All ports support 30W PoE+ with a 500W budget, and the field-swappable power supply allows the PoE budget to be upgraded by inserting a higher-wattage PSU. The platform is SDVoE-Ready with Zero-Touch multicast, simplifying uncompressed 10G AV-over-IP video distribution. As part of the M4300 stackable family, it supports mixed 40G/10G/1G stacking with non-stop forwarding (NSF) and hitless failover for high availability across the stack. Full L2/L3 services — static, policy-based, RIP, VRRP, OSPF, and PIM routing — are included, and the switch is managed through CLI, web GUI, SNMP, and the NETGEAR NMS300 platform. The half-width form factor allows one or two units to mount in a single 1U rack space.

Key Features

• 16x 10G Multi-Gig Ports — every port auto-negotiates 100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G for flexible high-bandwidth access.
• PoE+ on All Ports — 30W per port with a 500W budget for powered APs, cameras, and AV endpoints.
• Upgradable Power — field-swappable PSU lets the PoE budget grow by inserting a higher-wattage supply.
• SDVoE-Ready — Zero-Touch multicast streamlines uncompressed 10G AV-over-IP video distribution.
• Mixed-Speed Stacking — 40G/10G/1G stacking across the M4300 series builds a single virtual chassis.
• Full Layer 3 Routing — static, policy-based, RIP, VRRP, OSPF, and PIM routing without extra licensing.
• High Availability — non-stop forwarding and hitless failover keep traffic flowing across the stack.
• Compact Chassis — half-width form factor mounts one or two units in a single 1U rack space.
• ProSAFE Warranty — backed by the NETGEAR ProSAFE limited lifetime hardware warranty.

Typical Applications

• Broadcast Studio — SDVoE uncompressed 10G AV-over-IP distribution with Zero-Touch multicast.
• Boardroom — multi-gig PoE+ access for AV endpoints, displays, and Wi-Fi 6/6E APs.
• Auditorium — high-bandwidth video distribution with resilient stacking.
• Conference Room — converged AV, voice, and data on multi-gig PoE+ ports.
• Training Room — multi-gig access for collaboration systems and powered devices.
• House of Worship — uncompressed AV-over-IP video with field-upgradable PoE power.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What speeds do the ports support?
All sixteen copper ports auto-negotiate 100M, 1G, 2.5G, 5G, and 10G, making them suitable for Wi-Fi 6/6E access points and high-bandwidth AV endpoints.

Can the PoE budget be increased?
Yes. The 500W PoE+ budget is field-upgradable by swapping in a higher-wattage power supply. This unit ships with the APS299W PSU.

Is the M4300-16X suitable for SDVoE AV-over-IP?
Yes. The switch is SDVoE-Ready with Zero-Touch multicast for uncompressed 10G AV-over-IP video distribution.

Does it stack with other M4300 switches?
Yes. The M4300 series supports mixed 40G/10G/1G stacking with non-stop forwarding and hitless failover for high availability.

What warranty applies?
The XSM4316PA-100NES is covered by the NETGEAR ProSAFE limited lifetime hardware warranty.
