Two-dimensional infrared images, in J, H, and K, of the M87 jet have been used to compute the fluxes of the brightest knots. The data in conjunction with existing radio and optical B band data are consistent with a power-law spectrum from the radio to the optical. Although the optical-UV and radio-IR spectral indices do indicate a break in spectral index somewhere in the optical region, the data together with those of de Vaucouleurs and Nieto are not consistent with a break between J and the optical B region.
