GIGACORE 16tf

10 Gb Ethernet switch forprofessional touring applications.

10Gb Network switch
for converged AV networks

The GigaCore 16tf is an up to 10 Gigabit Ethernet switch for professional touring applications in lighting, audio and videoand provides ruggedised connectivity at the front as well as at the rear of the rack to accomodate multiple edge devices in a flexible way with several fiber and copper connector options from factory.

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.

1Gb Connectivity

A range of 1Gb versions is available as well with identical PoE and redundancy features. For more information, please see specifications and product codes below.

PoE++

PoE++ implementation on every copper port allows you to connect any PoE device available today.

Today’s PoE standards (802.3af802.3at and 802.3bt) are all met.
GigaCore 16tf can directly drive almost any IP PTZ camera, network node or PoE powered loudspeaker on the market.

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, RAVENNA/AES67ST-2110IPMXMA-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.

Quick overview

 

  • Easy to configure with WebUI & ARANEO.
  • 12 x Rugged 1Gbps front-side connectivity for flexible field deployment.
  • 4 x 10Gbps connection. OpticalCON, Fiberfox or
    EtherCON in front and/or rear.
  • Pre-configured for ProAV – no compromises required.

 

  • Pre-defined Groups (VLANs), Custom Groups (VLANs), and Custom Trunk technology with matching color-coded LED indicators per port.
  • PoE++ support on all copper ports.
  • Dedicated connection for the RPSU 5580, enabling redundant power or increased PoE budget.

Robust, yet silent design

An all-metal housing 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.

Manage and monitor your complete system with Araneo

For optimised consistency, 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.

Araneo Health Check proactively checks vital parameters of your network and ensures consistency throughout.

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.

Consistency in LED colours

Consistent Group (VLAN) colours in the web UI, in Araneo and on the front panel LED’s.
