Welcome
This User Guide is designed to familiarize you with the features and functions
of your new Pro64® product. All Pro64 products are powered by A‑Net®,
Aviom’s proprietary data transmission protocol designed especially for the
unique demands of live streaming audio. In developing the Aviom Pro64
Series product line, we have made every effort to make the user interface
as easy to use and understand as possible. We encourage you to read the
manual completely, as some of the powerful features of your new product
may not be immediately apparent.
This document is a combined User Guide for the MH10 and MH10f Merger
Hubs, which have many features in common. Differences in functionality will
be called out as needed.

The EtherCon Connector
Pro64 Series products feature locking connectors for all network I/O. The

a standard Category 5e cable or a cable fitted with the special locking
EtherCon connector.
When using a standard Cat‑5e cable, plug the cable into the center of the
EtherCon jack; release the cable by pressing on the small plastic tab built into
the cable connector.
