Luminex - GigaCore 16i-12x1G-4x10G(SFP+)

Luminex - GigaCore 16i-12x1G-4x10G(SFP+)

GigaCore 16i is a 10 Gigabit Ethernet switch in a ½ 19” package, dedicated to AV integration and installations where there are specific requirements to available space and mounting.

It is designed to support the most advanced AV protocols out of the box and is the backbone for a converged network, allowing multiple applications to co-exist on the same network.

10Gb Connectivity

10Gb connectivity allows full network convergence of lighting control, audio, intercom, and video.

AV validated for real applications

GigaCore switches are fully validated in real-world applications with major brands in the AV industry for different protocols, including NDI™, Dante™, AVB/MILAN, AES67, ST-2110, IPMX, MA-Net, and many more.

We don’t just approve against a protocol but actually test it. Because of real world application validation and interoperability testing, we understand the applications and make sure you can deploy our product with confidence.

Luminex support team really speaks your language and has a vast amount of AV knowledge built up, not just from talking protocols but mainly from working with you and living through your real application network challenges.

Robust yet silent design

A robust yet silent design allows you to use GigaCore in any AV environment.Fans are speed controlled to have minimal noise impact and guarantee a long-life operation.This allows you to place the GigaCore in the most quiet environments like theaters and studio’s.

Araneo to manage and monitor the complete system

All GigaCore switches can be managed with a single network-wide tool: Araneo

Araneo’s online mode shows everything you need to know about the status of your GigaCore network. Data streams and topology are visualized as are the port status of every GigaCore.

Monitor your network with confidence and act before the show gets interrupted!

In offline mode, Araneo lets you plan the complete network topology and GigaCore settings in advance. Reducing network commissioning time to a mere click of a button.

Intuitive web UI

The built-in web UI allows you to adjust the settings in an intuitive way. Assigning Groups (VLANS) to ports, creating trunks or adjusting other port- and PoE settings can be done  on the fly and  the status page gives you an overview of the complete switch at a glance. The toolbox page allows management of profiles and lets you upgrade firmware easily.
