Integration
Netgear AV Line
Take true command of your AV-over-IP networking backbone. Showcaller’s integration with Netgear AV Line Managed Switches allows AV professionals to query real-time PoE utilization, toggle power across individual interfaces, and reboot the networking core right from their dashboard. Gain vital connectivity insights—like active links, port speeds, and spanning tree configurations—ensuring your NDI, Dante, and SVSI traffic remains reliable during live events.
Supported Models

Capabilities
Basic Switch Operation
Retrieve baseline system diagnostics, up-time, and device chassis details.
Port & PoE Management
Control individual physical ports, interface links, and reset PoE power feeds.
Advanced PoE
Monitor total switch PoE allocation budgets and real-time power draw metrics.
VLAN Management
Create, configure, and assign physical ports to logical network VLAN segments.
Switch Administration
Update the switch hostname, fan control modes, and system defaults.
Network Diagnostics
Execute internal traceroutes and low-level physical copper cable tests.
DHCP & Accounts
Assign static DHCP IP reservations and review bound endpoint addresses.
AV Networking
Diagnose Link Aggregation (LAG), Multicast routing, and Spanning Tree (STP) topologies.
Available Functions
Basic Switch Operation
Monitor the heartbeat of your AV network. Check system device models, read MAC addresses, and ensure device up-time is stable to pinpoint connectivity failures before they effect a show.
