Pre-configured for out-of-the-box use
NETGEAR IGMP Plus™ enables instant multicast functionality for most AV over IP installations
Dedicated AV web-based GUI interface
Unique interface designed for the AV professional with color-coded, port-based profiles
Profiles for common audio protocols
Quickly assign profiles to ports for Dante, AES67, and AVB audio configurations. AVB Requires a separate license
Video profiles built-in
Special profiles for NVX, SVSI, Q-SYS and Dante video profiles can be easily assigned to ports as needed
Unique Automatic Configuration
Auto-trunk and auto-lag functionality automatically configures other M4250 switches for use in star topology.
Easier configuration with new AV GUI
The AV-oriented, web-based GUI permits factory or user-specified profiles to be assigned to individual ports as needed.
Use in noise-sensitive environments
Adjustable fans can be turned off if certain conditions are met. Even the default Quiet mode is quieter than most other switches.
Get up and running fast with little engineering time required
Our NETGEAR IGMP PlusTM feature is set from the factory to ensure out-of-the-box functionality for most AV over IP installations
Multiple mounting options provide ultimate flexibility
Threaded mounting holes sized to industry standards are built into the chassis for mounting behind a display or clamped to a truss.
