If you"ve got multiple AVB-compatible audio interfaces or other gadgets, then you need a MOTU AVB Switch to bring them all together. With just a single MOTU AVB Switch, you can connect up to five AVB-ready devices, such as MOTU 1248, 16A, or 8M audio interfaces, or other AVB Switches. This freakishly fast, full-bandwidth Gigabit Ethernet protocol lets you send a ton of audio with near zero latency up to 328" away - all over everyday Cat 5e or Cat 6 Ethernet cable! And you can still connect a Wi-Fi hub via the AVB Switch"s bridging port, allowing you to access all of your routing settings via your iOS device.
