NETWORK AUDIO

오디오 네트워킹 간소화

BSSCrown은 기본 Dante 및 AES67 AoIP 기술을 포함하고 일부 제품에서는 CobraNet에 대한 레거시 지원을 제공하는 제품을 갖추고 있습니다. BLU link를 활용하면 HARMAN HiQnet Audio Architect™ 소프트웨어를 통해 프로그래밍하고 제어할 수도 있습니다. 이러한 오디오 전송 솔루션 옵션을 결합함으로써 사용자는 거의 모든 작업 요구사항을 해결할 수 있는 적절한 제품을 선택할 수 있는 뛰어난 유연성을 갖게 됩니다.

추가로, AMX SVSI Networked AV 인코더 및 디코더는 AES67로 전송된 오디오를 BSS Soundweb London Signal Processors로/에서 디지털 방식으로 스트리밍할 수 있습니다. Soundweb London Signal Processors는 AES67과 Dante를 동시에 송수신하므로, 다른 HARMAN AES67 호환 장비 같은 호환 기기 간에 Dante가 제공하는 고급 기능을 유지할 수 있습니다. AMX SVSI Networked AV 장치를 포함한 HARMAN 프로세서, 앰프 및 비디오 제품이 AES67을 지원하면 다른 비HARMAN AES67 호환 시스템과의 원활한 상호운용성을 제공합니다. 다음 다이어그램은 HARMAN Networked AV를 활용하는 일반적인 응용 사례를 보여줍니다:

유연한 오디오 트랜스포트 솔루션

시스템 설계자들은 다양한 오디오 트랜스포트 표준을 선택해야 하므로, HARMAN은 가장 인기 있는 요구사항을 충족하기 위해 다양한 신호 처리 솔루션을 개발했습니다.

Crown은 Dante, AES67 및 CobraNet을 지원하는 다양한 모델을 제공합니다. 또한 Crown은 BLU link 앰프를 제공하며, 이는 모든 Soundweb London 프로세서와 페어링되어 뛰어난 채널 수와 전력 옵션을 제공합니다.

AMX SVSI 비디오 인코더 및 디코더에는 이제 AES67이 포함되어 있으므로 BSS 및 Crown과의 네이티브 오디오 통합으로 완전히 통합된 시청각 시스템을 구성할 수 있습니다. 이 비디오는 HARMAN 네트워크 오디오 솔루션에 대한 추가 논의를 제공합니다:

BLU LINK

HARMAN BLU link is a high-bandwidth, low-latency audio bus that can be used as a standalone technology or used as a complement to Dante, AES67, and CobraNet.

USB AUDIO

It’s often desirable to use a computer as a source of audio or as a recording device. The BSS BLU-USB allows up to eight channels of audio to be sourced from a PC/Mac and made accessible via BLU link to other devices on the same ring. Up to eight channels of audio can also be received by the computer from the BLU link ring for recording or monitoring purposes. This diagram illustrates a typical USB Audio solution:

DANTE

HARMAN’s support of Dante networked audio allows audio to be passed through BSS Soundweb London BLU-806DA, BLU-326DA, or BLU-DA devices into any Crown BLU link-enabled amplifier. These Soundweb London processors make it possible to use Dante to pass audio between multiple locations, capable of being routed through switches and existing network infrastructure. They can also be used as a bridge to convert Dante audio to BLU link for low-cost audio redistribution of up to 60 devices within a rack or room.

In addition to using BLU link amplifiers in a Dante system, Crown DriveCore Install (DCi) DA Series amplifiers can also receive Dante audio directly. All DCi DA models are capable of providing 70Vrms/100Vrms audio per channel.

NEW: Dante Domain Manager Firmware Update for BSS and Crown
Dante-enabled BSS SoundWeb London Processors (BLU-806-DA, BLU-326-DA, BLU-DA) and Crown DCi-DA Amplifiers (8|600DA, 8|300DA, 4|1250DA , 4|600DA, 4|300DA) will support Audinate’s Dante 4.0 firmware, featuring Dante Domain Manager. Dante 4.0 offers these added benefits:

  • IT Friendly
    • Can run on a VM
    • Reporting via SNMP
    • Active Directory and LDAP support
  • Integrator Friendly
    • Can divide audio system into “domains,” each with secure user logins
    • Configurable dashboard for remote support
    • Audio routing across subnets / WAN
    • Audit trail for troubleshooting

NETWORK TRANSPORT EXPANSION OPTIONS USING BLU LINK

BLU link is a great compliment to other network transport formats, such as Dante. By using the appropriate BSS Soundweb London processor, Dante can be converted to BLU link for local distribution within a rack or rack room. Designing a system with this method can alleviate network congestion and expand system options to any BLU link-enabled amplifier, processor, or accessory. This system design approach works identically regardless of AoIP protocol.

Dante & AES67

AES67 is a standard for high-performance streaming audio-over-IP interoperability. It provides a common format to pass audio digitally between two or more different audio-over-IP systems.

Many AMX SVSI video encoders and decoders support AES67, in addition to traditional SVSI encoded audio. Additionally, Soundweb London processors support AES67 audio, allowing the processor to ingest audio from video components. 

This means that audio from AMX Networked AV encoder sources can be broken away digitally and sent via AES67 to BSS Soundweb London devices. From there, it can be processed and sent via AES67 to AMX decoders and/or via Dante or BLU link to HARMAN amplifiers and processors.

The growing list of supported AMX SVSI video encoders/decoders have model names ending in the “A”. This diagram illustrates a typical application utilizing HARMAN Dante & AES67:

COBRANET

HARMAN’s support of CobraNet networked audio allows audio to be passed through BSS Soundweb London BLU-800 or BLU-320 processors into any Crown BLU link-enabled amplifier. Both the BLU-800 and BLU-320 make it possible to use CobraNet to pass audio between multiple locations, capable of being routed through switches and existing network infrastructure. They can also be used as a bridge to convert CobraNet audio to BLU link for low-cost audio redistribution of up to 60 devices within a rack or room.

In addition to using BLU link amplifiers in a CobraNet system, Crown I-Tech HD Series amplifiers can also receive CobraNet audio directly. All I-Tech HD models are capable of providing 70Vrms/100Vrms audio per channel. This diagram illustrates a typical application utilizing HARMAN CobraNet:

AVB

AVB audio signals can be passed through BSS Soundweb London BLU-805 or BLU-325 processors into any Crown BLU link-enabled amplifier. Both the BLU-805 and BLU-325 make it possible to use AVB to pass audio to multiple locations with and include the ability to travel through switches and routers in a campus-wide environment. They can also be used as a bridge to convert AVB audio to BLU link for low-cost audio redistribution of up to 60 devices within a rack or room.

In addition to using BLU link-enabled amplifiers in an AVB system, Crown DriveCore Install Network Display Series amplifiers can accept AVB audio directly and are certified by the AVnu® Alliance to work with other AVB solutions. There are two Install Network Display Series models available: 4|1250ND and 8|600ND. This diagram illustrates a typical application utilizing HARMAN AVB:
