Description
The NETGEAR M4500-32C (CSM4532-100NAS) is a high-performance 100G managed switch engineered for demanding enterprise and Pro AV environments. Designed to support large-scale AV-over-IP deployments, this switch combines the flexibility of Ethernet networking with the simplicity of preconfigured multicast functionality, enabling seamless integration and rapid deployment.
With 32 QSFP28 ports supporting 100G, 50G, and 40G connectivity, the M4500-32C delivers ultra-high throughput and low-latency performance ideal for spine-and-leaf architectures and aggregation layers. Its advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 capabilities, including dynamic routing, multicast optimization, and IGMP Plus, eliminate the need for complex configurations while ensuring efficient traffic distribution across large networks.
Built for reliability, the switch features redundant power supplies and fan systems to maintain continuous operation in mission-critical environments. Whether deployed in data centers, broadcast systems, or large AV installations, the M4500-32C provides scalable, high-speed connectivity with enterprise-grade resilience and simplified management.
