GigaCore O26-I
All-SFP 40-Gigabit
The GigaCore O26-I is a 40-Gigabit Ethernet switch dedicated to AV integration, installation, and touring, designed to support the most advanced AV protocols out of the box. It is the ideal solution to serve as the high-bandwidth backbone for professional AV networks with a star or mesh topology.
Bandwidth, connectivity, and port availability are no longer an issue with 20 independent SFP+ ports supporting speeds up to 10 Gbps, 4 SFP28 ports up to 25 Gbps, and 2 QSFP ports up to 40 Gbps.
The GigaCore O26-I is an indispensable part of any AV network requiring high bandwidth, reliability, and quick, easy setup. With two built-in power supply units, it delivers redundant power within the same 1U rack space.

AV validated for real applications
GigaCore switches are fully validated in real-world applications with major brands in the AV industry for different protocols, including NDI™, Dante™, AVB/MILAN, RAVENNA/AES67, ST-2110, IPMX, MA-Net, and many more.
We don’t just approve against a protocol but actually test it. Because of real world application validation and interoperability testing, we understand the applications and make sure you can deploy our product with confidence.
Luminex support team really speaks your language and has a vast amount of AV knowledge built up, not just from talking protocols but mainly from working with you and living through your real application network challenges.
Quick overview
- 2 QSFP ports | 40 Gbps.
- 4 SFP28 ports | 25 Gbps.
- 20 SFP+ ports | 10 Gbps.
- Easy to configure with WebUI & ARANEO.
Pre-configured for ProAV – no compromises required.
- Pre-defined Groups (VLANs), Custom Groups (VLANs), and Custom Trunk technology with matching color-coded LED indicators per port.
- 2 Built-in power supplies, redundancy in 1U rack space.
- New rack mount brackets allow recessed mounting for optimized cable routing.
Robust and silent design
An all-metal housing allows you to use GigaCore in any AV environment.
Fans are speed controlled to have minimal noise impact and guarantee a long-life operation.
This allows you to place the GigaCore in quiet environments like theaters and studio’s.
Manage and monitor your complete system with Araneo
For optimised consistency, all GigaCore switches can be managed with a single network-wide tool: AraneoAraneo’s online mode shows everything you need to know about the status of your GigaCore network. Data streams and topology are visualized as are the port status of every GigaCore.
Monitor your network with confidence and act before the show gets interrupted!
In offline mode, Araneo lets you plan the complete network topology and GigaCore settings in advance. Reducing network commissioning time to a mere click of a button.Araneo Health Check proactively checks vital parameters of your network and ensures consistency throughout.
Intuitive web UI
The built-in web UI allows you to adjust the settings in an intuitive way. Assigning Groups (VLANS) to ports, creating trunks or adjusting other port settings can be done on the fly and the status page gives you an overview of the complete switch at a glance. The toolbox page allows management of profiles and lets you upgrade firmware easily.
