Q-SYS NS40-960+ 40-Port PoE+ Managed Network Switch

The Q-SYS NS40-960+ is a pre-configured Gen 2 managed network switch built specifically for larger Q-SYS ecosystems and networked audio environments running AES67 or Dante. Integrators deploying house-of-worship systems, performing arts centers, corporate AV installations, or touring production rigs with extensive endpoint counts will find the 40 PoE+ ports and 960W power budget sufficient to handle a dense mix of Q-SYS I/O devices, amplifiers, and peripherals without an external PoE injector infrastructure.

The eight 10Gbps SFP+ uplink ports provide the backbone bandwidth needed for high-channel-count audio-over-IP traffic and redundant network topology, which is a practical requirement in mission-critical installed AV environments where network resilience is non-negotiable. Arriving pre-configured for Q-SYS deployment, the NS40-960+ eliminates the setup time associated with generic managed switches, reducing commissioning risk and accelerating system bring-up on complex installs where network misconfiguration is a common source of delays.
