SETUP FOR THREE TO FIVE INTERFACES
Use this setup if you want to connect three to five
MOTU interfaces to your computer using a
MOTU AVB Switch™ (sold separately).
■
The connection to the computer can be USB or
Thunderbolt. Use Thunderbolt or USB 3.0, if
possible, to support a large number of audio
streams to and from the networked interfaces. A
single Thunderbolt or USB 3.0 connection
supports 128 channels in and out, simultaneously.
■
Use standard CAT-5e Ethernet network cables
to connect the interfaces to the MOTU AVB
Switch using their NETWORK ports.
■
Use the five AVB NETWORK ports on the
switch (not the Ethernet port).
■
Network cable lengths can be long: 100 meters
with standard copper wire cables; much longer
with fiber-optic network cables.
■
See “About CAT-5e cables” on page 34.
■
As an alternative, see “Setup for multiple
interfaces” on page 37.
■
To add more computers to the network, connect
them to any interface, as shown. All computers
and interfaces have full access to each other.
■
See chapter 11, “Networking” (page 95).
Additional computers are optional.
All computers and interfaces have full
access to each other on the network.
