Network Switch

Network Switch is an audio video term for Chicago-area smart home, theater, and commercial AV projects.

Network Switch is a device that connects wired network devices and forwards data between them.

Example of Network Switch

A managed network can support streaming video, cameras, touchscreens, access points, control processors, and guest Wi-Fi without overloading one router. In that kind of Davis networking project, the term Network Switch would describe a device that connects wired network devices and forwards data between them. Davis would use that understanding to account for router, switch, and access point placement, wired backhaul, guest access, and device reliability, then test the result in the actual room, document the related components, and show the client how to use the feature without needing to manage the technical details behind it.
