The Swisson XES-2T6 is a purpose-built 6+2 port Gigabit Ethernet switch, engineered to deliver uncompromising performance and reliability in professional lighting, audio, and video networks. Designed for seamless use with Art-Net, sACN, and Dante protocols, the XES-2T6 ensures stable and optimized communication for time-sensitive show control systems.

Whether you're linking stage and FOH or building segmented network environments, the XES-2T6 offers intuitive configuration, redundant power and trunking, and versatile VLAN support — making it ideal for touring rigs, permanent venues, and critical show control setups.


Key Features:

  • 6 Assignable Ports with VLAN Grouping (IEEE 802.1Q)
    Each port can be individually assigned to a network group, enabling isolated network segments.

  • 2 Aggregated Trunk Ports
    Provides a high-throughput, redundant backbone link between network zones, ideal for stage-to-FOH.

  • Optimized for Art-Net, sACN, and Dante
    Guaranteed compatibility and reliability with critical AV networking protocols.

  • Four Queue DiffServ for QoS
    Prioritized data handling ensures high-quality streaming, especially for Dante audio networks.

  • No Broadcast Bandwidth Limitations
    Ensures uninterrupted signal flow, even with large-scale broadcast data loads.

  • Redundant Universal Power Supplies
    Includes two internal PSUs, each with Neutrik powerCON In/Out connectors for primary and backup mains power.

  • Neutrik etherCON Network Ports
    Professional-grade, locking network ports for rugged touring environments.

  • User-Friendly OLED Display & Controls
    Includes an encoder knob, port assignment buttons, and visual interface for fast configuration.

  • 1U Rackmount Design
    Compact and durable chassis integrates easily into professional touring or installation racks.


Ideal Applications:

  • Live production environments needing low-latency signal routing

  • Touring rigs and broadcast setups with Art-Net or sACN-based control

  • Dante-enabled venues and performance spaces requiring QoS and VLAN separation

  • Complex AV networks with FOH-to-stage trunking and redundant power requirements

The XES-2T6 goes beyond standard switches by offering dedicated design features for professional show environments. From real-time DMX distribution to mission-critical Dante audio routing, this switch ensures top-tier performance with redundant power, dedicated trunking, and no-compromise protocol support.

Take command of your show network with the Swisson XES-2T6 — the ultimate backbone for AV professionals.
