Built for AV over IP

Pre-configured for immediate deployment, enabling quick setup for AV over IP installations.

NETGEAR IGMP Plus™

Delivers instant multicast functionality for most AV over IP systems, simplifying configuration and stream distribution.

Cost-Effective Aggregation

Provides affordable 100G aggregation and 10G access layer connectivity, ideal for AV deployments and redundant spine-and-leaf network topologies.

Simplified System Architecture

Optimized for spine-and-leaf AV network designs, with optional MLAG between spine switches for enhanced redundancy.

High AV Stream Capacity

Supports up to 320 TX / 320 RX 10-Gigabit nodes operating at full line rate within a redundant spine-and-leaf architecture.

Flexible VLAN Configuration

IGMP Plus is enabled on VLAN 1 by default and can be configured on other VLANs to enable automatic multicast handling across switches.

Power & Cooling Redundancy

Includes dual APS750W power supplies and six AFT402 fan trays, delivering 1+1 power redundancy and 4+2 fan redundancy for maximum reliability.

Software Features

  • Secure Operation
  • Advanced IPv4/IPv6 security features including malicious code detection, DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard, and Control Plane Policing (CoPP).
  • Fault Tolerance
  • Configurable Port-Channel / LAG (802.3ad – 802.1AX) with L2/L3/L4 hashing for improved load balancing and network resilience.
  • Robust Link Aggregation
  • Supports up to 64 Link Aggregation Groups (LAG/LACP) with 32 ports per group, including Multi-Chassis Link Aggregation (MLAG).
  • Comprehensive Routing
  • Full IPv4/IPv6 routing capabilities, including static and dynamic routing, CIDR, PBR, VRRPv2, OSPFv3, PIM-SM6, BGP4, and VRF-Lite.
  • Security & Traffic Prioritization
  • Advanced classifier-based hardware implementation for Layer 2 (MAC), Layer 3 (IP), and Layer 4 (UDP/TCP) traffic security and prioritization.
  • Multicast Routing
  • High-performance IPv4/IPv6 multicast routing with PIM-SM and PIM-SM6, working alongside static routes or other Layer 3 protocols for efficient AV stream distribution.
