Resumen del manual
About Your Pro64 Product The locking EtherCon connector is similar to an XLR plug, the kind commonly used on microphone cables. Insert an EtherCon-equipped cable into the jack until it clicks and locks in place. To remove the cable, press on the metal release tab at the top of the panel-mounted EtherCon jack and pull the connector outward. The SFP Module The MH10f Merger Hub ships with two 100 Mbps SFP format fiber optic ports (9 and 10) which allow the user to connect optional single-mode or multi-mode fiber optic transceivers that can transmit A-Net data over longer distances than Cat-5 cabling can provide. Small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a specification for a series of modular optical transceivers. The transceivers are designed to be physically compact, and can be hot swapped. The SFP connector allows the user to reconfigure the MH10f with single- or multi-mode fiber optic transceivers as needed. Always leave the dust cap on when the SFP module is not in use to avoid damage to the optical connections. The SFP transceiver module shown with its dust cap on (left) and from the front with transmit and receive connectors exposed. Using fiber optic connections will require a minimum of two MH10f units. Always use the same type of SFP module in each unit—for example, use 100 Mbps multi-mode SFP transceivers with the same light wavelength specifications in each MH10f. Gigabit (1 Gbps) SFP transceivers are not supported. The LC Connector SFP modules typically use a connector known as LC. For bidirectional transmission, two fiber cables per SFP module are required, one to transmit and the other to receive. The SFP module can accept single (simplex) or dual (duplex) type connectors. Aviom suggests using About Your Pro64 Product duplex connectors with the MH10f to avoid transmit/receive errors caused by the removal of individual fiber cables. A simplex LC connector (left) and a duplex connector (right). Cat-5e All Cat-5e connections between A-Net devices should use Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable. The cable can be of the stranded or solid type; solid wire performs better over long distances while stranded wire is more flexible and easier to manipulate and therefore easier to work with in a performance situation. Cables designated as Cat-5e in Pro64 documentation can be interchanged with any Cat-6 (or better) cable. Cables will be referred to simply as “Cat-5e.” Connectors on Cat-5e cables can be of the standard RJ45 variety or of the locking Neutrik EtherCon type. Firmware Update The Pro64 firmware can be updated in the field using a PC and the Pro64 Update Tool. Modules can be updated over A-Net, while part of an active audio network, or in local mode where no other modules are connected at the time the update is being performed (such as may be required for a bench configuration when setting up modules prior to installation). Updating a module requires the Aviom Pro64 Update Tool application, a PC host computer with RS-232 connection capability, a null modem DB9 cable, and the update file for the particular Pro64 device being updated. Refer to the Aviom website for information about the availability of the latest firmware upgrades and feature updates. The MH10 or MH10f must be connected to another Pro64 device with Virtual Data Cable™ capability in order to be updated. About Your Pro64 Product About A-Net Aviom’s A-Net® is the only networking technology conceived, designed, and optimized for managing and distributing audio using ordinary Cat-5e cables. As implemented in the Pro64™ Series products, A-Net can transmit up to 128 channels of uncompressed 24-bit audio with the reliability and fidelity of analog, and the power and flexibility of a true digital network. Pro64 A-Net allows variable sample rates in three ranges, from 44.1kHz± to 192kHz±, with ultra-low latency, jitter, and wander. Pro64 devices can be connected in any combination of serial (daisy-chain) or parallel (star) topologies. Cable runs between Pro64 devices can be up to 400 feet (120 meters) on Cat-5e1, and miles on fiber optics (with Aviom fiber- capable equipment). Because A-Net is designed specifically for audio, the technological limitations of Ethernet and Ethernet-based products are removed, while audio performance and system flexibility are increased. A-Net incorporates Aviom’s unique patented and patent-pending algorithms for controlling clock jitter and wander, as well as system-wide latency— regardless of an installation’s size, design, or clocking setup. A-Net offers significant advantages in fidelity, performance, and flexibility over Ethernet-based products. A-Net uses the “physical” layer of Ethernet, but it eliminates all the protocol elements that are designed for computers and IT-style networking. In audio applications, these other layers reduce efficiency, impose system restrictions, and introduce latency and timing instability. By eliminating Ethernet data structures, A-Net creates a superior network, with enhanced audio...
