NETGEAR M4350 XSM4344C 44-Port 40x10G/Multi-Gig PoE++ (196W base, up to 1,676W) and 4xQSFP28 100G Managed Switch

The NETGEAR M4350 XSM4344C is a 1U managed switch engineered for AV-over-IP networks that need both high port density and serious power delivery. Forty 10G/Multi-Gig ports supply PoE++ at up to 90W per port, while four QSFP28 100G ports handle high-bandwidth links, making it suited to edge-to-core deployments in production facilities, campuses, and large integrated AV systems.

The PoE budget starts at 196W from the 420W internal supply and scales to 1,676W using APS600Wv3, APS1200Wv2, or APS2000Wv2 modular supplies in the second bay for 1+1 redundancy. Virtual Chassis stacking provides non-stop forwarding with hitless failover, the Layer 3 feature set covers static, policy-based, and dynamic routing, and NETGEAR IGMP Plus, the AV user interface, and Engage Controller shorten configuration. Quiet mode runs at 34.1dB.
