The Luminex 30i Switch is a highly advanced network switch tailored for the demands of professional AV environments. Here’s a breakdown of its features and capabilities:

1. Out-of-the-Box AV Optimization:
   • Preconfigured to support the most advanced AV protocols such as Dante, RAVENNA/AES67, AVB/MILAN, Q-SYS, and more.
   • This means you can deploy the switch quickly, ensuring a stable and responsive network environment for critical, time-sensitive audio and video protocols.
2. Preconfigured QoS, IGMP Multicast, and PTPv2:
   • These settings help guarantee low latency and high reliability, making it perfect for high-performance audio and video streaming.
   • The Quality of Service (QoS) settings prioritize traffic efficiently to avoid packet loss or delays, crucial for live performances or broadcasts.
   • IGMP Multicast and PTPv2 enable smooth management of multicast traffic and time synchronization across networked devices.
3. Power over Ethernet (PoE) Capabilities:
   • With a 1000W total PoE budget, this switch can power numerous devices directly from the switch without needing additional power supplies.
   • PoE++ support on every copper port enables it to power more demanding devices, like IP PTZ cameras and active loudspeakers, without the need for separate power cables.
4. Versatility in AV Networks:
   • The GigaCore 30i is perfect for fixed installations, integration, and touring applications in AV setups, handling lighting, audio, and video network needs.
   • Its ability to support multiple AV protocols on a single network makes it highly efficient for creating a converged network that can handle multiple applications simultaneously.
5. Designed for Scalability and Stability:
   • Whether used in live events, touring setups, or permanent installations, the GigaCore 30i provides the flexibility and reliability needed to ensure all AV devices communicate effectively over a single, unified network.

In summary, the GigaCore 30i is an ideal choice for professionals in the AV industry, offering high power delivery, seamless protocol support, and optimised network performance for demanding applications.
