Description
Network Your StudioLive Mixers
The PreSonus SW5E is a five-port AVB switch for networking multiple StudioLive Series III consoles. You can also link a StudioLive AI-series console and StudioLive RML rack mixer, using the rack mixer as a stagebox. Or connect a StudioLive RML rack mixer with a StudioLive CS18AI control surface. You can also use an SS5E to cascade a pair of StudioLive RML-series mixers into one large system via AVB networking. A heavy-duty all-metal chassis and rugged etherCON connectors ensure reliable road-worthiness. At Musical Garage, we appreciate that the SW5E eschews a wall wart for an internal power supply. If you want to network your second- or third-generation PreSonus StudioLive gear, the SW5E makes it easy.
Audio Video Bridging (AVB) in a nutshell
AVB, or Audio Video Bridging, is a set of IEEE standards that employ a local Ethernet network to transport audio signals in real-time. It maintains the full quality of encoded audio and video and supports nanosecond sync accuracy, regardless of network activity. AVB networks use standard Cat 5e or Cat 6 cables for connections, and multiple AVB devices can be connected via AVB switches like the PreSonus SW5E. Using an Ethernet network in lieu of analog cables simplifies installation drastically — instead of running bulky audio cables all over a building, you can simply take advantage of the existing Ethernet infrastructure.
