Designed for broadcast, live production, and professional AV environments, the AVN-AI16-RAV provides a cost-effective and dependable solution for transporting low-latency audio between analogue and RAVENNA/AES67 network domains. The unit incorporates dual RJ45 1Gb/s Ethernet ports that accepts both power and data to the RAVENNA/AES67 network. These ports, designated primary and secondary, can be configured in redundant mode to provide full network redundancy where infrastructure allows. In this configuration, the unit seamlessly switches from primary to secondary, ensuring continuous audio and power in the event of a link loss or switch failure.
