Luminex GIGACORE S30-I

1Gb AV Network Switch. Installation. Integration. Touring

1Gb Network Switch for converged AV networks

With six independent SFP ports supporting 1 Gbps data transfer and 24, 1 Gbps copper ports, the GigaCore S30-I offers an ample port count. Paired with Araneo, the GigaCore S30-I enables one-click AV network deployment for fixed installations.

Like all GigaCore models, it is designed to natively support the most advanced AV protocols, serving as the basis for a converged network and enabling multiple applications to coexist seamlessly on the same network.

GigaCore offers a reliable, user-friendly platform to transport light, audio, and video IP protocols without IT configuration. Time synchronization is critical in many applications. The GigaCore S30-I is a PTPv2-enabled switch that supports most major audio protocols (e.g., RAVENNA/AES67, Milan AVB, ST 2110, Dante, Q-SYS/Q-LAN) without requiring complex device configuration.

No compromises

The GigaCore S30-I is an indispensable part of any AV network where reliability and quick, straightforward setup are required. As a user, you don’t need to make choices or tradeoffs, as GigaCore handles most AV protocols for you out of the box.

PoE+

Entertainment installations constantly push the limits, and the need to deploy PoE-powered devices is continuously increasing. The GigaCore S30-I provides an answer to these scenarios by offering PoE+ on all ports as an option.

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.

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- and PoE 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.
