The AC-MXNET-10G-TCVR-PRO simultaneously leverages the full technological architecture of its AC-MXNET-10G-TCVR stablemate, and augments platform versatility with the addition of engineering sciences from USB extension leader Icron, plus Audinate’s ubiquitous Dante to an already powerful silicon résumé.
AVPro Edge has cultivated several advanced concepts into MXnet 10G and SDVoE making it a tour de force that, just a single year ago, seemed implausible. Its design is indispensable, unique and destined to become an instant classic. The new AC-MXNET-10G-PRO serves as another flexible gateway in the next generation 10G lineup of heavy-duty AV-over-IP multicast offerings from AVPro Edge.
Icron USB
Patented by Icron Technologies, the ExtremeUSB® suite of features enables extension of native USB connections beyond the traditional USB standard 5 meter limitation. Through precise control over strict USB specification timing requirements with physical transmission media, including both Category wire and fiber, ExtremeUSB manages turnaround time quotients in the USB protocol between the local point and all remote points. ExtremeUSB maintains these transmission and acknowledgment requirements transparently and driver-free. Specialized algorithms manage and correct error-prone situations while handling techniques, unique to separate USB transfer types, keep USB links active via a proxy process to overcome extension-incurred delays.
Additional ExtremeUSB features such as driver-free plug and play and compatibility with Windows, Mac OS and Linux provide consistently reliable, transparent user experiences. Vastly extended operational distances made possible by ExtremeUSB enables broader market applications, including medical, military, education and pro AV.
Audinate Dante
Replacing antiquated traditional Pro A/V cabling protocols, which were often practiced as linking one device to another, with different devices and their associated applications requiring different cabling types, Audinate’s Dante (Digital Audio Network Through Ethernet) platform packetizes audio in a similar fashion to MXnet 10G and SDVoE, with virtually matching specifications.
Signal flow and routing are software defined, untethered from previous rigid disciplines. Dante Audio is 100% lossless, 24-bit or 32-bit, for all conventional industry sample rates from 44.1kHz up to 192kHz. Latency is ultra-low at 1ms or less, with sub-microsecond synchronization.
The AC-MXNET-10G-TCVR-PRO uses the installed Dante Module to encode stereo audio from an HDMI video source into two separate Dante audio streams. This enables HDMI audio to be distributed to decoders on an MXnet 10G network, simultaneously sending the Dante-encoded 2-ch audio streams onto an existing Dante network for site-wide distribution to other Dante-enabled products. The AC-MXNET-10G-TCVR-PRO does not decode Dante audio.
