NETGEAR M4500-48XF8C 48-Port 25G SFP28 + 8-Port 100G QSFP28 Managed AV Switch (XSM4556)
The M4500-48XF8C pairs 48 SFP28 ports, each running 10G by default or 25G when configured, with eight QSFP28 ports that run 100G, 50G or 40G. That makes it the fibre access or leaf switch in a NETGEAR spine-and-leaf AV-over-IP network, uplinking to an M4500-32C spine, or the aggregation point for a campus of 10G SDVoE and IPMX encoders. Like the rest of the M4500 line it ships in a full-width 1U chassis with two APS750W supplies and six fan trays already fitted.
NETGEAR pre-configures IGMP Plus so multicast video flows on VLAN 1 with no setup, and rates a redundant spine-and-leaf build for up to 320 transmit and 320 receive 10G nodes at line rate. Management is CLI over the console port, Telnet or SSH, with a dedicated 1G out-of-band service port. Covered by NETGEAR's limited lifetime hardware warranty.
