7 TECHNICAL CONCEPTS

In order to choose cable correctly, it is important to identify what it will be used for, and the environment in which it will be used. These technical concepts will give you a better understanding of the key points involved in choosing the best cables to suit your requirements. Any mistake in choosing cable runs the risk of affecting your whole event.

The various types of conductor in the AUDIOLAN® range.

In accordance with ISO 11801, the single-core cables are cables created for fixed installations (in wall), and the multicore cables are used as cords for links between mobile equipment (control panels, units, etc.).

RIGID CORE FLEXIBLE CORE

A rigid single core is formed of A flexible core is formed of a single strand usually made a multicore usually made of of copper. copper. Cables formed of flexible The cables equipped with a cores are recommended for flexible core operate better under fixed installations (music bending than cables formed of a venues, theaters, etc). single core.

8 Different shielding options in the AUDIOLAN® range

The construction of twisted cables is described in its reference. Minor clarification:

XX / XTP Constituent part: TP = Twisted Pair Type of pair shielding: U = Unshielded F = Foiled

Type of general shielding: U = Unshielded F = Foiled S = Shielded SF = Shielded + Foiled

There are three types of shielding available in this range.

TYPE OF SHIELDING CONSTRUCTION EXAMPLE

F/UTP General foiled with unshielded pair

S/FTP General shielded with foiled pair

SF/UTP General shielded and foiled with unshielded pair

The various types of sheaths available in the AUDIOLAN range of cables

A cable's ability to work in its environment will depend on its type of external sheathing.

Most commonly used protocols CobraNet is widely considered to be the first successful business implementation of audio over Ethernet. Using CobraNet, 64 compressed digital audio channels can be carried by a single category 5 cable. The data transfer rate is 100 Mbits/s.

ETHERSOUND has Ethernet 100Mb compatible ports and these are used 100% with a throughput of 48,000 packets per second, each containing 64 channels of individual audio samples at 48kHz. Usage at 100% means that there are no further resources available.

Dante™ designates an audio network protocol designed by Audinate®, based on a Gigabit Ethernet network and allowing for several hundred audio connections for each network cable. This protocol offers ultra-precise synchronization, resulting in extremely low latency.

Ravenna est an open technology without proprietary license. It allows audio data and media to be carried in real-time over IP networks. Ravenna holds a low latency, total signal transparency and high reliability. The data transfer rate is 1 Gbit/s.

AES50 is a transfer protocol based on the AES3 digital audio standard (AES/EBU). It can carry 48 audio channels at 44.1 or 48 kHz or 24 channels at 88.2 or 96 kHz. The cable used is a Cat5e computer cable with data transfer rates up to and including 100 Mbits/s.

10 AES67 is a Layer 3 protocol, designed to allow interoperability between various IP-based audio networking systems, such as RAVENNA, Livewire, Q-LAN and Dante. It also provides interoperability with Layer 2 technologies such as Audio Video Bridging (AVB).

AVB (Audio Video Bridging) is formed of three protocols. Precise synchronization of all network devices, provision of the necessary bandwidth for audio and video data, and smooth flow of data. The data transfer rate is 1 Gbit/s.

HDBaseT: This protocol uses 5Play technology to transmit video, audio, power, Ethernet, USB and control signals. HDBaseT supports the Ethernet 100 Mbits/s version on twisted pairs.

ART NET: This protocol is used to communicate information within a network, in order to control several machines, in particular in the field of stage equipment. Its main asset is to offer many ranges (512 DMX channels) within a single network.
