L-Acoustics has launched the LS10 Avnu certified AVB switch, offering out-of-the box AVB connectivity.
A founding member of the user-driven Milan workgroup, L-Acoustics is committed to the Ethernet AVB standard serving the real-time needs of media transport. ‘We know our users don’t have the bandwidth to be IT experts, spending all their time configuring networks,’ explains L-Acoustics Director of Electronics Genio Kronauer, a member of the Milan work group since its founding. ‘With LS10, you get a rugged AVB switch that works effortlessly. All you have to do is plug in LS10, you are ready to send audio through your entire network in seconds.’
Two LS10 units can be mounted side-by-side in a 1U-high rack space for redundancy. With front and rear connectivity, LS10 can be easily mounted in the LA-Rak II, distributing audio and control to other amplified controllers or other LA-Rak II units through eight EtherCon connectors and two SFP cages for fibre-optic transceivers. With no need for internal ventilation, LS10 operates in silence without risk for overheating
LS10 is designed to meet the challenges of touring events as well as installation applications. An auxiliary, 24V DC input takes over in case of mains failure. If power loss does occur, LS10 recovers with a boot time of 5 s. A General Purpose Output (GPO) can trigger external devices in the event of a fault detection.
LS10 works both within the L-Acoustics ecosystem and without, and will ship in Q1 2020.
