Hey there! I'm spilling the beans on the juicy deets about what's cookin' at NETGEAR in the AV world for the year 2025. Buckle up, because we're about to take an exciting ride!
Expanding the Managed Switch Portfolio
NETGEAR's expanding its M4350 series with four new bad boys, specially designed for broadcast and Pro AV applications. These new models will be unveiled at InfoComm 2025 and are loaded with enhancements for SMPTE ST-2110 workflows. What's more, they're built to handle the demanding needs of Pro AV and broadcast environments, ensuring a rock-solid networking solution.
Boosting the Central Management System
At InfoComm 2025, NETGEAR's gonna show off its Engage Controller, which offers a profile-based approach for switch configuration. The goal here is to simplify and strengthen network management in AV environments. To top it off, NETGEAR's Pro AV Design Services will also be available at the event, offering personalized support and education for configuring and managing AV networks like a pro.
Improving User Experience
NETGEAR's putting its money where its mouth is when it comes to enhancing the user experience. They're investing in educational sessions and training classes at InfoComm 2025, with network configuration classes and on-demand sessions on designing AV-over-IP networks on the menu. Plus, NETGEAR's participation in industry panels and discussions means they're keeping a finger on the pulse of the AV community and tailoring their offerings to meet industry needs.
Tackling Strategic Acquisitions and Partnerships
Finally, while not directly related to the AV market, NETGEAR's acquisition of Exium for its enterprise segment suggests a broader strategy to integrate advanced networking and security solutions, which could have a ripple effect on future managed network offerings.
