Clear-Com does not aim to verify Ethernet switch manufacturers or a customer's network topology. Though Clear-Com Engineering has tested specific switches for certain workflows, this information is for guidance only.

The standard AES67 network is a bridging compliance which allows any AES67 compliant device to participate with other compliant devices on a network in order to transport high quality audio over IP (AoIP.) Unlike Dante, this requires a more thorough understanding of the network topology since the mechanics are less automated.

Clear-Com has provided a thorough User Guide that explains what is necessary for a AES67 network, what is required and what has been tested.

Network Switches that DO and DO NOT Work with Clear-Com AES67/ST2110-30

Features Required:

  • 1Gb (or more) bandwidth for every port

  • Layer III - Can perform at or near wire speed, but also acts as a router because it has IP routing intelligence built in.

  • Switching capacity equal to 2x number of ports (Tx/Rx). To exemplify this, if you purchase a 10-port switch, it should have a switching capacity of 20 Gb/s.

  • EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) or Green Ethernet needs to be disabled.

  • QoS - Quality of Service prioritization of audio traffic.

  • Fiber to Copper conversion preferable using the SFP/mini-GBIC form factor.

  • IGMP snooping must be properly configured.

Recommended Features:

  • PTP Aware Switches (that support Boundary Clock or Transparent Clock Mode.)

  • Dedicated PTP GrandMaster Clock (separate from the IPA card.)

Das Standard-AES67-Netzwerk ist eine Brückenkonformität, die es jedem AES67-kompatiblen Gerät ermöglicht, mit anderen kompatiblen Geräten in einem Netzwerk zusammenzuarbeiten, um hochwertiges Audio über IP (AoIP) zu transportieren. Im Gegensatz zu Dante erfordert dies seitdem ein gründlicheres Verständnis der Netzwerktopologie Die Mechanik ist weniger automatisiert.

Clear-Com hat ein ausführliches Benutzerhandbuch bereitgestellt, das erklärt, was für ein AES67-Netzwerk erforderlich ist, was erforderlich ist und was getestet wurde.

標準AES67 網絡是一種橋接合規性，允許任何AES67 兼容設備與網絡上的其他兼容設備一起參與，以便通過IP (AoIP) 傳輸高質量音頻。與Dante 不同，這需要更全面地了解網絡拓撲，因為機械裝置的自動化程度較低。

Clear-Com 提供了詳盡的用戶指南，解釋了 AES67 網絡的必要條件、要求以及已測試的內容。
