AVPro Edge Introduces the AC-MXNET-10G-SW24C PoE Switch

AVPro Edge has introduced the AC-MXNET-10G-SW24C 24-port, 10Gbps hybrid PoE++/PoE+ network switch. This switch design supports Audio/Video-over-IP applications, including SDVoE, Dante, AVPro Edge MXnet 10G, and others.

With 24 x 10G-mGig RJ45 ports with a total bandwidth of 480Gbps and two 40Gbps QSFP+ stacking ports with 160Gbps total bandwidth, the AC-MXNET-10G-SW24C has a calculated switching capacity of 640Gbp.

“In 2022, AVPro Edge introduced the industry's first 12-port 10 Gigabit PoE++ switch, continuing our brand legacy of bringing innovative high-performance solutions to A/V integrators,” explained Matt Murray, CTO at AVPro Edge. “Our newest 24-port hybrid PoE++/PoE+ switch enables integrators to deliver ultimate SDVOE 10 Gbps AV-over-IP ecosystems while establishing a new benchmark for professional PoE++/PoE+ solutions to enhance installation efficiency and increase system performance.”

The switch, pre-configured with Quality of Service (QoS) settings optimized for Dante audio streams, prioritizes Dante audio packets above other network traffic, reportedly reducing latency and packet loss to ensure high-quality, uninterrupted audio streaming. “AVPro is the first professional AV manufacturer to implement QoS pre-configurations specifically for Dante traffic, demonstrating our commitment to enhancing audio streaming quality in residential and commercial environments”, says the company.
