Troubleshooting

Device connected via PoE is not powering up

Check the total PoE budget to ensure you haven't exceeded 720W and verify the cable is rated for the required PoE++ standard.

Audio or video signal synchronization issues

Verify that the correct AV profile is applied to the port and check if IGMP snooping is active on all switches in the path.

Cannot access the AV management interface

Ensure your computer is on the same management VLAN or network segment as the switch's default management IP.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The switch is housed in a standard 1U form factor, making it ready for immediate installation in 19-inch server or AV racks.

  1. Mounting: Secure the unit using the included rack-mount hardware, ensuring adequate ventilation space behind the unit for the rear-facing ports.
  2. Configuration: Connect via the management port to access the dedicated AV UI. Choose your required profile (e.g., Dante, NVX) to automatically apply optimized settings.
  3. Power: Verify the 720W PoE budget against your device requirements before daisy-chaining multiple high-draw components.
  4. Care: Keep the unit in an environment between 0–50°C and avoid dust buildup near the intake fans to maintain internal temperature stability. Ensure firmware is regularly updated via the management interface for the latest protocol optimizations.
