Example #3 - Single Wire Interface:

Here all QSControl.net and CobraNet traffic shares the same single CAT-5 cable between the RAVE 520uz and an unmanaged Ethernet switch. The QSControl.net system manages traffic flow efficiently and reliably so that all audio and control data is delivered to its appropriate destination anywhere on the network. This configuration works well when CobraNet audio deliveries are point to point. Though the example shows only one RAVE 520uz and one “audio destination” product (such as the BASIS 922az) as many devices may be connected as there are available switch ports. All RAVE/BASIS units will be able to communicate simultaneously with the computer. All will have CobraNet audio output capability, with the exception of source-only devices like the 520uz. Switches can be connected to other switches to build larger networks; all of the normal networking principles apply. (Note: there must be at least two CobraNet devices online (one source and one destination) for any data to come out of the CobraNet port.)
