Easy set-up with front display

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

Touring approved

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

Converged networking

Transfermultiple 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)

Dont worry about power plugs anymore. PoE+ powers-up all compatible devices within the network.

Araneo to manage and monitor the complete system

All GigaCore switches can be managed with a singlenetwork-widetool: Araneo

Araneosonlinemode shows everything you need to know about thestatusof your GigaCore network. Data streams and topology arevisualizedas are the port status of every GigaCore. Monitor your network with confidence andact beforethe show gets interrupted!

In theOfflinemode, Araneo lets youplan in advance the complete network topology and all Gigacore settings. Reducing networkcommissioning timeto a mere click of a button

Focus onbeing creative again.

Stop wasting time on programming your network orrely on someone else 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!

Built-inRedundant Power Supply.

The GigaCore 16RFO has an internalredundant power supply for ultimate redundancy on power level (and PoE). If for some reason the mainpower supply fails, the redundant supplykeeps your system up and running.

The ultimate touring companion with rugged Fiber.

The GigaCore 16RFO has four slots for rugged Fiber connectors (option between Neutrik of Fiberfox) forlong distance coverage. So when harsh environments such as tours and live events are your daily life, the GigaCore 16RFO is likely to become your best friend you can always rely on.
