While Just Add Power devices can work with most any network switch, the performance of the system will depend on using a switch that best optimizes its features.  A Layer 3 Gigabit Managed Ethernet Switch is the best option for video matrixing applications.

We test and certify a variety of switch models from different manufacturers. Using one of these models will ensure your system is easy to install with unmatched scalability and outstanding performance. 

A Just Add Power system requires one port for an uplink to the data network, while all remaining ports can be used for Encoders, Decoders, or additional data network connections.
