SDVoE-Ready M4300-96X
Up to 96-port 10G, PoE options
The NETGEAR® M4300 Stackable Switch
Series delivers L2/L3/L4 and IPv4/IPv6
cost-effective services for mid-enterprise
edge and SMB core deployments with
unrivalled ease of use: 10/40 Gigabit
models can seamlessly stack with 1
Gigabit models within the series, enabling
spine and leaf line-rate topologies. Non-
stop forwarding (NSF) virtual chassis
architectures provide advanced High
Availability (HA) with hitless failover across
the stack. Intelligent NETGEAR IGMP
Plus
multicast allows for scalable Pro AV
installations at Layer 2 without the PIM
complexity. Dual redundant, modular
power supplies equipping full width
models contribute to business continuity
management. Layer 3 feature set includes
static, dynamic and policy-based routing
– as standard. The NETGEAR M4300
Switch Series is perfect for wireless access,
unied communications and professional
AV-over-IP installations.
NETGEAR Intelligent Edge Switch
solutions combine latest advances in
hardware and software engineering for
higher exibility, lower complexity and
stronger investment protection, at a high-
value price point.

Highlights
Best-in-class stacking
M4300 is exible enough for mixed
stacking between 10/40 Gigabit and 1
Gigabit models, using any 10G/40G
port with any media type (RJ45, SFP+,
DAC cables)
High-availability is another key
differentiator for stackable solutions:
in case of a master switch failure, NSF
and hitless failover ensure the standby
switch takes over while forwarding
plane continues to forward trafc on
the operational stack members
without any service interruption
10G/40G modular solution
The M4300-96X scales from 8 to 96
ports of 10G Ethernet by multiple of
8 ports, and from 2 to 24 ports of 40G
Ethernet by multiple of 2 ports
The 96X lets you start small with copper
and ber, including Multi-Gigabit
2.5G/5G and PoE+ over 10G, and
grow later in “non-blocking” mode just
by adding port expansion cards
Higher exibility
Two half-width M4300 switches can be
paired in a single rack space for
redundant Top of Rack installations with
Auto-iSCSI prioritization
Removing the need for Layer-3
PIM routing, IGMP Plus greatly simplies
system architectures with automated
IGMP techniques across the entire AV
over-IP network
