NETGEAR® Expands Its M4350 Managed Switched Portfolio

NETGEAR® is expanding its M4350 managed switch portfolio with four new models.
Designed specifically for broadcast and pro-AV applications, the new switches boast features that accelerate deployment, simplify management, and deliver the performance and reliability essential in professional media environments. These M4350 Phase 3 switches will debut at InfoComm 2025 (NETGEAR booth 4401) in Orlando, Florida.
Featuring advanced capabilities ideal for IP-based installations, the four new M4350 switches address specific industry needs, particularly for live event and broadcast applications. Key features for all models include:
Multicolour LED Port Identification: This novel feature displays user-selected colors physically on each port, matching colours assigned in the NETGEAR AV OS™. This innovation makes it easy for technicians to identify which cables should be connected to specific ports, simply by finding the corresponding LED color. Rapid port identification significantly simplifies deployment, reduces setup time, and decreases the possibility for error.
Enhanced SMPTE ST 2110 Support: All new M4350 models include built-in grandmaster clock and boundary clock functionality, which are critical for SMPTE ST 2110 broadcast applications, while maintaining transparent clock capabilities across the entire M4350 and M4250 switch lines. With this functionality, the latest NETGEAR AV managed switches can serve as the primary timing source for a broadcast network.
Secure Power Connection: Introduced with the latest M4350 switches, a new mechanism secures power cables to the chassis, preventing accidental disconnections during critical live events.
TAA Compliance: The new M4350 models all comply with the strict government policy regarding the Trade Agreement Act (TAA) to ensure products originate from approved countries.
The new M4350 Phase 3 switches will be officially launched during InfoComm in June, with availability expected in July 2025. Models include:
M4350-8M2V (MSM4310): 8x 2.5G ports with 4x 25G uplinks, half width
M4350-24M4X4V (MSM4332): 24x 2.5G and 4x 10G/Multi-gig PoE++ ports with 4x 25G SFP28 uplinks
M4350-24F4X (MSM4328F): 24x 1G/2.5G SFP ports with 4x 10G Combo Copper / SFP+ ports
M4350-40F4C (XSM4344FC): 40x 10G SFP+ ports with 4x 100G QSFP28 uplinks
These new models complement NETGEAR's existing M4350 portfolio while providing expanded options for different network requirements. For U.S. government customers, separate SKUs are available for each of these new switches to meet TAA requirements.
