Hello, Broadcast aficionados,
As we set our sights on IBC in Amsterdam this week, let me introduce a key player that will be redefining the broadcast industry's landscape: NETGEAR.

A Glimpse Into NETGEAR’s Legacy:


Hailing from Booth 11.B16, NETGEAR has been sculpting the networking world for both homes and businesses for over two and a half decades. However, you might be wondering, “What’s their link to broadcasting?”
With the surge in Audio/Video over IP networks, NETGEAR’s AV division is making tidal impacts in both Commercial and Residential AV markets. Their lineup of managed switches, crafted specifically for AV over IP, combined with the NETGEAR AV OS™, ensures seamless network configuration for AV technicians.

Product Showcase:

The latest to join the portfolio are the M4350 series switches. These versatile switches, ranging from 1G to 100G, are built to serve various network tiers, including edge, server room, and core.
Powered by that same NETGEAR AV OS™, configuring these switches is made uncomplicated, backed by certified profiles from over 200 AV equipment manufacturers. There is even an impressive free controller, called Engage, which is a simple Mac or Windows application, that can manage and monitor your entire network. There is an API that you can use with your own control systems. All free!

And now there is the announcement that NETGEAR is entering the SMPTE 2110 space.
