MOTU AVB Switch 5-Port AVB Ethernet Switch

The MOTU AVB Switch - Five-Port AVB Ethernet Switch is designed to connect up to five AVB Audio, Video, or Switch interfaces into a network using the IEEE 802.1 AVB standard and CAT-5e or CAT-6 Ethernet cables up to 100 meters in length. This networking standard provides real-time, low-latency, fully synchronized streaming of audio and video over Ethernet.

The back panel of the switch features five 1-Gigabit AVB Ethernet ports as well as one standard Ethernet port for connecting the device to the Internet or a Wi-Fi router. The five AVB ports can also be used for standard Ethernet. Two front panel rows of LEDs provide visual feedback of the network connections and status of each port.

For convenience and reliability, the system features automatic device discovery so no IT experience is required and implements AVB's Stream Reservation protocol to provide guaranteed Quality of Service and ensure uninterrupted connections. The system also provides a network-wide time bass for synchronizing all connected devices within one sample phase lock and with timing accuracy within the nanosecond.

Audio Video Bridging (AVB) è la nuova ed entusiasmante estensione Ethernet specificamente progettata per lo streaming in tempo reale, a bassa latenza e completamente sincronizzato di audio e video su Ethernet. AVB adempie alla promessa di un vero standard A/V in grado di congiungere i mondi della tecnologia di networking e dell'audio/video professionale.

MOTU AVB Switch offre cinque porte AVB da 1-Gigabit per qualsiasi dispositivo AVB (inclusi altri switch), più una sesta porta supplementare per interfacciarsi con una rete Ethernet standard. Godetevi i numerosi vantaggi di AVB, come il funzionamento plug-and-play, la qualità di servizio garantita e la gestione auto-regolata delle risorse di rete.
