About L
This manual covers the details of the SDI xNode. To learn more about L and AoIP, you may wish to read
Introduction to L: System Design Reference and Primer
which is available on the Telos Alliance website
( www.telosalliance.com ) and Audio Over IP: Building Pro AoIP Systems with L by Steve Church and Skip
Pizzi, available from Elsevier Press.
In these publications we explain the ideas that motivated L and how you can use and benefit from it, as
well as nitty-gritty details about wiring, connectors, and the like. Since L is built on standard networks,
we also help you to understand general network engineering so that you have the full background for L’s
fundamentals.
