Netgear adds four 2110 switches to its M4350 series

The four new M4350 switches from Netgear, aimed at both broadcast environments and proAV applications, come to respond to the needs of IP installations with innovative functions and resilience in all types of contexts.

Among the key highlights of these new models is the port identification via multicolor LED, a new feature that displays user-selected colors physically on each port, assigned in the Netgear AV operating system. This development allows technicians to easily identify which cables should be connected to specific ports by finding the corresponding LED color, significantly simplifying implementation, reducing setup time and decreasing the chance of error.

All new models include built-in master clock y border clock, critical for SMPTE ST 2110 broadcast applications, while maintaining transparent clock capability. As a result, the new M4350s can serve as main timing source for a broadcast network.

Likewise, these teams stand out for having a new mechanism to ensure the power cables to chassis, avoiding accidental disconnections during critical live events, and meet the strict government policy US legislation relating to the Trade Agreements Act, ensuring in the process that products come from approved countries.

With a planned launch date of July 2025, the new models in the M4350 line are the M4350-8M2V (MSM4310), 8 2.5G ports with 4 25G uplinks; he M4350-24M4X4V (MSM4332), 24 2.5G PoE++ ports and 4 10G/multigig PoE++ ports with 4 25G SFP28 uplinks; he M4350-24F4X (MSM4328F), 24 1G/2.5G SFP ports with 4 10G copper/SFP+ combo ports, and the M4350-40F4C (XSM4344FC), 40 10G SFP+ ports with 4 100G QSFP28 uplinks.
