Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can anyone tell me if this is universal voltage or is it 120 only?

A: The Netgear AV Line M4250 GSM4212UX 8-Port Gigabit PoE++ Compliant Managed AV Switch with SFP+ (720W) is multi-voltage (100-240V, 50-60 Hz).

Q: 2. Do you know if the AV Line M4250-10G2XF-PoE+ (GSM4212PX) will connect to my laptop at 2.5gbps using the SFP+ Port? Thanks!

A: Most laptops do not have SFP+ ports, but if you have a means to connect to the SFP+ port then you will be able to achieve speeds up to 10 gbps.

Q: 3. If I have 4 cameras coming in via NDI, this should power them and take 1 outbound ethernet to an NDI switcher and it will work?

A: It would depend on the power consumption, NDI version, resolution and frame rate. Considering the 240W PoE+ power budget and max wattage of 30W for PoE+ devices, the Netgear AV Line M4250 GSM4212PX 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ Compliant Managed AV Switch with SFP (240W) should provide enough power for the cameras. Bandwidth would be the biggest issue. If you are using full Bandwidth NDI, transmitting 4K signal at 60 FPS from each camera, your Ethernet connection going to the NDI switcher may not have enough bandwidth for all 4 signals. If you are using lower bandwidth NDI such as HX3 or a lower resolution, such as 1080p, your single Etherenet connection to the NDI switcher should be sufficient.

Q: 4. Can this be mounted with the network connections facing the front of the cabinet as opposed to the back?

A: Yes, you could mount the Netgear AV Line M4250 GSM4212PX 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ Compliant Managed AV Switch with SFP (240W) so that the network ports are facing the front of the cabinet if you'd like, however you will then be putting the LEDs and the USB port on the back side.

Q: 5. Does the switch include rack-mounting hardware?

A: The Aruba Instant On 1960 12XGT 12-Port 10G Managed Network Switch with SFP+ does include the mounting hardware.

Q: 6. Does this model include the AVB license?

A: The Netgear AV Line M4250 GSM4230PX 24-Port Gigabit PoE+ Compliant Managed Network Switch with SFP+ (480W) does not come included with an AVB license.

Q: 7. Do this switch require a Unifi Key?

A: The Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Switch Enterprise 48 48-Port 2.5Gb PoE+ Compliant Managed Network Switch with SFP+, B&H # UBUSWENPR48P, does not require a Unifi Cloud Key but it does require the Unifi controller software running on a computer or a server. The Cloud key is a dedicated "mini-computer" that can run this software.

Q: 8. Does it have RADIUS auth option?

A: Yes, the Ubiquiti Networks ES-5XP EdgeSwitch XP 5-Port Advanced Gigabit PoE Managed Switch, B&H # UBES5XP, supports RADIUS authentication.

Q: 9. Is there a rackmount kit for this switch?

A: Unfortunately, we do not have a rack mount kit for the Netgear AV Line M4250 GSM4210PD 8-Port Gigabit PoE+ Compliant Managed AV Switch with SFP (110W) BH #NEGSM4210PD.

Q: 10. I currently with this 8-port switch but need more than 8 ports (I need 12 ports). Which switch would be an appropriate upgrade?

A: The only Unifi options available with more ports are the Ubiquiti Networks UniFi 16-Port Managed Gigabit PoE Switch with SFP (UBUSW16POE) or the Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Managed PoE+ 16-Port Gigabit Switch with SFP - 150W (UBUS16150W).
