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.
