o
Talker/Listener:
AVB endpoint that is both transmitting and receiving. All AVB endpoints used on Dana series
are by default Talker/Listener devices.
o
Precision Time Protocol (PTP):
Allows devices on the network to get a notion of global time in the effort to
synchronize with each other. PTP component in each AVB module can act as a Grand Master (providing
clock) or as a slave (receiving clock). Once a grand master negotiates and is selected as a sync source, all
units will synchronize to it.
o
Streams:
General term describing packetization of one or multiple audio/ video channels over the network.
Stream can be unicast or multicast. For the time being, the AVB module only supports unicast streaming.
Future revisions will provide additional features.
o
Stream ID
: Unique 64-bit stream identifier used by AVB transport protocols to identify streams.

Connectivity
2.2.1
Network
AV2USB requires at least one Ethernet connection for configuration and audio streaming. Configuration is performed
using the provided AVBStreamer toolbox software and using a single Ethernet cable.
A standard-straight through Ethernet CAT5/6 network is required for connectivity through a network switch.
A crossover CAT-5/6 cable is required for direct connectivity to a PC/Mac machine that doesn’t support
auto-switching.
AV2USB devices utilize “Zeroconf” technology for plug&play integration.
-
If a DHCP server is present at boot up, the AV2USB will automatically acquire an IP address
-
If no DHCP server is present at boot up, the AV2USB will use the Link Local Address (Auto IP) P 169.254.0.xxx
Network requirements:
Audio Video Bridging systems requires special AVB enabled network switches ( so called AVB bridge) to
enjoy the advanced features of AVB such as the Stream Reservation Protocol. Such AVB bridge has the
ability to shape the traffic of the network such that any AVB traffic has higher priority.
If in doubt, don’t hesitate to contact our technical support team at
2.2.2
DC power connectivity or PoE
The AV2USB requires an external DC supply either provided by an external 5VDC SMPS or a PoE switch.
OPTION A: +5VDC power supply (provided with the AV2USB). Here is a picture of the power supply provided along
with the plugs.
