AV Evolved – Next-generation partnerships for next-generation AV
Lightware’s 26 years of AV expertise meet NETGEAR’s proven network innovation to address the professional AV industry’s accelerating transition to AV over IP. With growing demand for flexible, scalable solutions, this partnership brings together Lightware’s comprehensive AV over IP portfolio and NETGEAR’s robust infrastructure. Together, they deliver pre-validated solutions that support diverse bandwidth requirements from 1G to 10G and beyond, transforming deployments across corporate, entertainment, and mission-critical environments.
Scalable Solutions and Validated Performance
Lightware’s bandwidth strategy ensures the right solution for each need, from cost-conscious 1G installations to advanced 10G deployments with the TPN family. Supported by NETGEAR’s M4250 and M4350 AV switches, this ecosystem provides the foundation for current and future growth. A pre-configured Lightware profile eliminates complex setup, enabling plug-and-play deployment and one-click UBEX AV over IP configuration. NETGEAR’s switches are fully tested across Lightware’s portfolio, ensuring consistent, high-performance results. Success depends not only on bandwidth, but on optimizing design for latency, compression, and cost-effectiveness—giving integrators confidence to balance performance and budget.
Partnership in Education
Beyond technology, this collaboration extends to professional training that benefits the entire AV community. Lightware’s UBEX training is now available on NETGEAR Academy, while NETGEAR’s networking fundamentals are offered through the Lightware training portal. By sharing expertise across platforms, both companies democratise professional education and equip integrators with the knowledge needed for successful AV over IP implementations.
