Audio Paths
the maximum size of an Ethernet packet. Therefore Lower-latency modes have relaxed
restrictions in this area. Audio channel count restrictions are summarized below.
Bundle capacity or maximum channel count may be limited in some cases by both the
allowable Ethernet packet size and by the processor bandwidth required to handle lower
latency and/or higher sample rate modes. Limitations imposed by packet size are
illustrated in
. Limitations imposed by additional bandwidth requirements are
discussed in the Hardware Reference Manual applicable to the particular CobraNet
Interface.
