Description
The Luminex GigaCore 26i is a Gigabit Ethernet switch providing a budget friendly solution when port density matters. The unit comes with all the advanced functionalities of the GigaCore Ethernet switches range, in a fully AV-installation oriented package. The unit offers 26 Gigabit ports that are all connected on the front panel. Each port on the switch will have coloured mode led indications which will indicate different properties of the port such as: PoE, redundancy and group membership.
Luminex GigaCore switches a pre-configured for many AV protocols including Dante, AVB Milan, AES67, Ethersound, Q-LAN, Ravenna, sACN, ArtNet etc.
