Engage Controller application builds on the GUI found in the M4250 series managed switches, providing a powerful central management tool that simplifies the configuration for multiple M4250 and M4300 switches used in AV networks.

NETGEAR has announced a powerful central management application for its series of AV network switches, strengthening its commitment to the AV-over-IP market. The introduction of the free NETGEAR Engage Controller app builds on the success of the AV graphical user interface (GUI) found in the M4250 series managed switches.

NETGEAR Engage Controller removes the complexity from network configuration and management in AV-over-IP installations using M4250 and M4300 switches. Providing a simple, template-based approach to switch configurations. The streamlined workflow enables AV integrators and installers to dive right into projects with the confidence that all the network settings are correct for their AV application. It eliminates the steep learning curve and cumbersome setup normally associated with network switch configurations.

The controller can automatically detect all switches on a network, allowing uncomplicated firmware upgrades, profile configurations, and much more. Users will be able to visualise and easily centralise the pre-configured, port-based AV profiles, lighting protocols, and other setups.

With only a few clicks, users can configure these robust switches for any AV-over-IP installation ranging from digital signage and wayfinding to entertainment venues, corporate conference rooms and lobbies, education, houses of worship and more.

“NETGEAR has continued to recognise the evolution taking place in the Pro AV world and specifically the advancements in AV-over-IP installations that are changing what is possible in our industry,” said Laurent Masia, director of product line management for managed switches at NETGEAR.
