The Luminex GigaCore 30i (LU0100077-10P-2S5) is a high-performance 30-Port Gigabit PoE++ Ethernet switch, designed to meet the rigorous demands of AV integration, installations, and touring applications. This versatile switch features 24 x 1G RJ45 ports and 6 x 10G SFP+ connectors, allowing for extensive network flexibility and connectivity options, all housed in a robust blue finish that ensures durability and aesthetics in professional settings.
Engineered to support the most advanced AV protocols, the GigaCore 30i works seamlessly with the Araneo software platform, providing a comprehensive solution for deploying an entire AV network with just a single click. The intuitive built-in AV Web UI facilitates straightforward configuration, while the Araneo network monitoring and management software allows for system-wide oversight across the Luminex network. This integration enhances user productivity, builds confidence in network reliability, and significantly reduces commissioning times, making it an essential tool for modern AV applications.
With an emphasis on reliability and ease of use, the GigaCore 30i incorporates pre-defined Quality of Service (QoS) and DiffServ settings, as well as optimized IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) per group (VLAN), enabling users to easily segment networks for different applications. The switch also supports advanced redundancy protocols, such as RLinkX, which ensures redundant links and a ring topology within your network, providing additional resilience.
The GigaCore 30i addresses the need for high bandwidth and robust connectivity, featuring six independent SFP+ ports capable of data transfer speeds of up to 10 Gbps, alongside 24 x 1 Gbps copper ports. This configuration allows for effective handling of high-demand applications, ensuring that bandwidth and connectivity are never bottlenecks.
Time synchronization is critical in many audio and video applications, and the GigaCore 30i simplifies this process with its PTPv2-enabled functionality, which operates seamlessly with major audio protocols, including AES67, ST2110, Dante, and Q-SYS/Q-LAN. This capability removes the complexities typically associated with setting up time-sensitive networks.
Additionally, the GigaCore 30i meets the increasing demand for PoE-powered devices by offering PoE++ support on all ports, delivering up to 90W per port with a total PoE budget of up to 1000W. This flexibility allows for easy integration of various devices, such as cameras, lighting fixtures, and other networked equipment, thereby reducing cabling complexity and enhancing installation efficiency.
The switch is equipped with two slots for optional hot-swappable power supply units, allowing for redundancy and ensuring uninterrupted operation. Intelligent fan control is implemented to maintain silent operation, which is crucial in live performance settings where noise must be minimized. For installations requiring a clean and professional look, an optional 19" flush mount LED panel can be connected to the rear of the GigaCore 30i.
In summary, the Luminex GigaCore 30i (LU0100077-10P-2S5) stands out as a versatile, high-performance Ethernet switch specifically designed to cater to the sophisticated needs of AV integration and touring applications. Its advanced features, intuitive management capabilities, and robust connectivity options make it an indispensable asset for any modern AV network.
