The Yamaha SWR2311P-10G Intelligent L2 Network Switch with PoE for Dante Audio allows users to quickly operate and manage PoE-compatible equipment such as speakers, microphones, access points, and more. Dante settings are automatically transferred to compatible devices, which helps to simplify installation and management for large conference rooms and other environments. The SWR2311P-10G offers eight PoE-compliant Gigabit Ethernet ports, each capable of delivering up to 30W of power, with a total budget of 240W. Configure the Gigabit combo ports to support additional RJ45 copper line connections or as SFP fiber uplinks.
 
Complete Network Overview
Using the dedicated Yamaha LAN Monitor software allows quick troubleshooting; you can check the PoE power supply status, turn the PoE power supply on or off, and use the snapshot function to inform you whether a fault has occurred by detecting any difference in the state of the network since it was set up. The web GUI provides a full range of monitoring functionalities, including dead/alive monitoring settings for PoE devices, allowing you to restart the PoE device if a fault occurs, or informing you via email of a fault.
 
Snapshot Function
You can take a snapshot of the network status when set up as required. The software can then automatically keep track of settings and alert you to any changes. For example, you could take a snapshot of the network, and be alerted if a cable is disconnected, if a device is turned off, or if a wrong connection is made prior to the performance.
 
Enhanced Device ID with Icons, Labels, and Comments
Identifying devices connected to a switch by only their IP or MAC address can be difficult and prone to errors. Connected Dante devices are identified by a Dante icon as well as a device ID previously set up via the Dante Controller software. You can also enter additional info, such as the location of the device, in the Label and Comment fields.
 
Intelligent Security Management
Augmenting the VLAN functionality included in the SWR2311P-10G is a built-in RADIUS server function. By setting up one switch as a RADIUS server and linking other switches to it, unauthorized network access can be effectively blocked for enhanced security, even in complex large-scale installations. Device authentication can be set up quickly and easily via a web-based GUI.
 
Network Visualization
The SWR2311P-10G supports the LAN Map Light visualization function by WebGUI. Switch settings can be made on graphical screens, not by command entry. By utilizing WebGUI, it has extensive monitoring functions, such as PoE device monitoring, restarting PoE devices in case of trouble, setting email error notifications, and more. With Yamaha's proprietary L2MS communication protocol, you can check the IP addresses of Yamaha network devices and the network devices connected to them. It can be used widely from system design to maintenance.
 
A microSD card can be used for backing up accumulated data in addition to activating and updating firmware.
