The Q-SYS NS26-480+ is a 26-port Gen 2 managed network switch designed specifically for AV-over-IP environments where generic IT switches require time-consuming manual configuration. Systems integrators and AV network engineers deploying Q-SYS ecosystems get a switch that arrives pre-tuned for Q-SYS AV&C, AES67, and Dante, removing a significant source of commissioning risk on installed AV projects.
With 24 PoE+ ports and a 480W PoE budget, the NS26-480+ can simultaneously power endpoints such as I/O frames, user control interfaces, and network-connected peripherals without requiring separate injectors or additional power infrastructure. Four 10Gbps SFP+ uplinks provide the backbone bandwidth needed for high-density AV-over-IP signal distribution and multi-switch topologies in boardrooms, performing arts centers, higher education facilities, and large-scale corporate installations.
Unlike a general-purpose managed switch that requires VLAN, QoS, and multicast configuration before it is AV-ready, the NS26-480+ ships with factory settings validated for Q-SYS workflows. This makes it the practical choice for integrators who want a tested, supported network foundation rather than a field-configured commodity switch carrying AV traffic on opening day.
