device called an inline coupler to add length to existing cables (as
long as you do not exceed the specified maximum cable length). If
you need a longer cable on occasion, this is a simple solution. Note
that it is possible that the maximum cable length specification can be
compromised by using inline couplers. Inline couplers are available at
most computer outlets.
About A-Net
Aviom’s A-Net is a high-speed data transmission protocol. It is capable
of sending and receiving high-quality audio using readily available
Category 5 cables. The A-Net technology is a proprietary system
developed by Aviom.
A-Net is based on Ethernet, a Local Area Network (or LAN)
technology. This provides A-Net with a mature and robust base on
which to build.
As used in the Monitor Mixing System, the A-Net signal carries
sixteen channels of digital data from the A-Net input module to each
and every Personal Mixer connected to the system.
Some of the benefits of using A-Net to transmit digital audio are:
• Virtually no latency
• No ground loops
• Easy cabling using readily available components
• An unlimited number of Personal Mixers can be used
in a monitoring system
• Ease in spanning long distances between system
components
Note: While the Category 5 cables and connectors used
on your Aviom products look like typical computer
network connections, do not connect computers,
routers, or other home and business networking
equipment to your Aviom products.
