Yamaha SWX3220-16MT L3 MultiGigabit Network Switch

High-Performance 16-Port Multi-Gigabit Switch for Complex Networks
The Yamaha SWX3220-16MT is a robust L3 intelligent network switch engineered to handle high-speed, high-bandwidth applications in professional audio, video, and enterprise networking environments. With 12 multi-gigabit ports supporting 100M/1G/2.5G/5G/10G speeds and 4 SFP+ ports for high-speed 10GbE fiber uplinks, this switch is designed to support demanding network infrastructures. It is an ideal choice for strengthening backbone networks that require low-latency, high-capacity data transmission.

Optimized for Dante Networks with One-Click Configuration
Ensuring reliable digital audio transmission across a Dante network is effortless with the SWX3220-16MT. With a simple click in the web-based GUI, the switch automatically optimizes IGMP and QoS settings for Dante operation. This built-in feature simplifies network configuration, allowing professionals in live sound, broadcast, corporate installations, and performance venues to set up a fully functional Dante audio network with minimal effort.

Flexible Multi-Gigabit Connectivity for Future-Proof Performance
Modern network environments require more than traditional 1GbE speeds. The SWX3220-16MT supports up to 10GbE networking over Cat6A cables while allowing existing Cat5e and Cat6 cabling to operate at up to 5Gbps without requiring new infrastructure. This flexibility makes it a cost-effective solution for businesses, educational institutions, and entertainment venues looking to upgrade their network speed while maintaining compatibility with existing cabling.

Advanced Network Monitoring with Yamaha LAN Monitor
Managing a Dante network requires real-time visibility into key network parameters. The Yamaha LAN Monitor software provides a single-screen graphical overview of traffic flow, switch status, and connected Dante devices. Users can take snapshots of normal network conditions and receive alerts if any changes occur. The software also allows instant access to Dante Controller for quick troubleshooting and network management.

Intelligent Security Management with Built-In RADIUS Server
To enhance network security, the SWX3220-16MT includes an integrated RADIUS server, allowing centralized authentication for connected devices. By configuring one switch as the primary authentication hub and linking other switches, unauthorized access is effectively blocked. This security feature is critical for large-scale deployments such as corporate networks, entertainment venues, and educational institutions where data integrity and controlled access are essential.

Precision Time Synchronization with PTPv2 Transparent Clock
For applications requiring highly accurate time synchronization, the SWX3220-16MT supports IEEE 1588 PTPv2 Transparent Clock functionality. This ensures network-wide synchronization with precision down to 1 μsec, making it an ideal solution for real-time audio and video applications in broadcast, recording studios, and live production environments.

Versatile Installation and Expansion Options
The SWX3220-16MT offers multiple mounting options, including rack-mount and wall-mount brackets for easy installation in diverse locations. Additionally, optional SFP modules allow for extended-range fiber communication, ensuring seamless network scalability for expanding infrastructures. Whether used as a central network hub or as part of a larger distributed system, this switch provides the flexibility required for complex deployments.
