Intelligent linking dynamically allocates the available audio trunks as
needed when a “talk” or “listen” to another matrix system is requested.
The Ethernet connection between matrices allows control data to route
the audio lines so that any panel or interface on one matrix can
communicate with panel or interface ports on the other matrices. By
doing so, the matrix can transparently handle communication requests
so that an intercom panel user cannot distinguish between talking to a
control room next door or across the continent.
The Ethernet network extends the system’s programming ability as
well, because one computer on a network can control and monitor all
matrices on the network.
Figure 5-5 illustrates a system linking matrices across continents.
