About A-Net

Aviom’s A-Net is an ultra-fast 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 your Personal 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:

•Sub-millisecond latency

•No ground loops

•Easy cabling using readily available components

•An unlimited number of Personal Mixers can be used in a system

•Ease in spanning long distances between system compo- nents

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.
