Aviom’s new MH10f Merger Hub with fiber is designed to merge and distribute A-Net datastreams and provide a host of professional features to make audio networking with Pro64 Series products easy to setup and configure in multiple professional audio environments.
The MH10f offers unprecedented flexibility and simplicity in system design with features and performance created specifically for networking and distributing audio. The MH10f holds 10 bidirectional A-Net ports. Eight ports use EtherCon RJ-45 connectors, while the remaining two hold SFP slots.
The 10-port MH10f Merger Hub supports parallel connections in a Pro64 audio network with integrated fiber-optic connectivity. In Pro64 systems running in Auto Mode, the Merger Hub creates a single network stream, which is redistributed out all 10 ports. This ensures that all 64 audio channels are available throughout the network, regardless of the physical location of any audio input or output. Channels can be physically located off any combination of the 10 ports, even through multiple Mergers.
In a Manual Mode system, the Merger Hub accommodates three preset configurations, allowing users to optimize the way each point merges and distributes audio channels. Each configuration preserves the bidirectionality of the system, even as inputs are separated physically off various legs of a hub.
The MH10f can also be used to provide the protection of a backup cable for main runs, as in a digital snake. The Merger Hub will also merge Aviom’s Virtual Data Cable data, allowing Pro64 devices to send and share control data effortlessly over long cable distances (up to 400ft. between devices).
