A pre-configured ethernet switch designed for professional AV solutions, perfect for touring and live events.

The GigaCore 16Xt is a Gigabit Ethernet switch designed to cope with the most demanding lighting and AV installations. Managed through an intuitive web interface, the unit can also be configured from the front-end display, making this switch a hassle-free solution for your everyday job. Four SFP cages also offer users the ability to create complex network topologies over fiber links, such as mesh or ring. Its wide range of up-to-date features and optional accessories makes the GigaCore 16Xt one of the most secure systems in the industry.

Would you like a Demo?

Tailored for AV Industry

Pre-configured settings that are common in the AV industry, such as QoS and IGMP snooping.

Easy Set-Up with Front Display

Easy group function with pre-configured VLAN’s for a quick set-up (without IT knowledge).

Touring Approved

Metal housing and ruggedized Ethercon connectors, ideal for touring and live events.

Converged Networking

Transfer multiple protocols (Dante™, RAVENNA/AES67®, ArtNet, MANet 1&2, sACN,Q-LAN …)

Ultimate Link Redundancy

RlinkX redundancy protocol automatically takes over signal in milliseconds in case of a link failure.

PoE+ (optional)

Don’t worry about power plugs anymore. PoE+ powers-up all compatible devices within the network.

Focus on Being Creative Again.

Stop wasting time on programming your network or spending money on IT consultants to do it for you. With Luminex GigaCore switches and only some basic AV knowledge, you can do it all by yourself in just the blink of an eye. Now you can finally focus on your core business as an AV technician or designer: “being creative”!

When Distance Matters: Fiber to the Rescue.

The GigaCore 16Xt provides users with four SFP cages for Fiber connectivity. Just connect a multimode or single-mode Fiber transceiver to each SFP cage and it will enable you to cover greater distances with a total link immunity up to 10km!

Free Software Included

LumiNet Monitor is a free software pack that will increase the comfort of working with Luminex equipment and together with the easy-to-use web interface for GigaCore’s will be of high value to your project monitoring and preparation solution.
