NETGEAR M4350-16M4V Managed AV Switch (MSM4320)

The M4350-16M4V is the 20-port member of NETGEAR's M4350 AV Line, laid out as 16x 2.5G PoE++ incl. 8x Neutrik etherCON, 4x 25G SFP28 uplinks. Its power budget is 1130W total when the redundant PoE budget remains 530W (1+1), and that number is what decides how many cameras, ceiling speakers, access points and touch panels this one switch can actually start and hold. Access ports run at 2.5 Gigabit.

What separates an AV Line switch from a generic managed switch is the software. You assign a configuration profile to each port instead of hand-typing a CLI, and the VLAN, QoS and multicast settings that profile needs are applied for you. NETGEAR IGMP Plus provides multicast right out of the box for most AV over IP work, which is what keeps a video-over-IP system alive on Layer 2 without standing up PIM. The Layer 3 feature set covers static, policy-based and dynamic routing. Auto-trunk and auto-LAG connect it to other M4350 and M4250 switches without a stacking plan. NETGEAR Engage Controller manages it alongside the rest of the fleet. NETGEAR rates its acoustics at Quiet Mode 35.6dB@25 deg C. Covered by NETGEAR's limited lifetime hardware warranty.
