NetworkHD components to ensure adequate airflow is maintained. Software/Firmware Where possible WyreStorm ships all components with the most up to date firmware, however before starting any installation the firmware in the components should be verified to be the latest. This will allow for the components to operate properly and ensure that the latest features are available. -

Page 13: System Infrastructure Guidelines And Requirements
NetworkHD 600 Series requires a 10Gb infrastructure rather than the typical 1Gb. This means that the WyreStorm recommended switches for 100/200 & 400 may not be common to the 600 Series and a separate list of recommendations exist. -
Page 14: Required Network Switch Features
Required Network Switch Features Switch Ports The WyreStorm NetworkHD family devices utilize twisted pair cable Ethernet standards. The Ethernet switch port connecting directly to a NetworkHD device therefore must support the following: NHD-000-CTL: 1Gb/s Full-duplex 1000Base-T IEEE 802.1ab NHD 100, 200 and 400 Series:... -
