Audinate joins AVnu Alliance
PORTLAND, OR – Audinate has joined the AVnu Alliance as a Promoter Member. The AVnu Alliance is an industry organization that is dedicated to the advancement of professional quality audio and video networking via the adoption of the emerging IEEE Audio/Video Bridging (AVB) standards.
AVB is a developing standard for media networking that
employs elements such as IEEE 802.1as Clock Synchronization, IEEE 802.1Qav
quality of service, and 802.1Qat traffic shaping, to improve the transport
performance of audio and video across standard Ethernet networks.
The AVnu Alliance is leading efforts to promote and support
the creation and implementation of compliance test procedures and processes
that provide interoperability of AVB-enabled networked products for the
professional A/V, automotive, and consumer electronics markets
Since our inception, Audinate has used standards to develop
a complete IP based media networking solution, said Audinate's COO, David
Myers. AVnu's goal for promoting interoperability and openness between A/V
equipment vendors across the industry, will give customers greater flexibility
in implementing A/V networked systems.
Audinate will include AVB support in our Dante solution said
Dr. Chris Ware, Audinate's VP of Engineering. Customers will continue to take advantage of feature
capabilities offered today, like automatic discovery of devices, descriptive
text-based labeling, audio channel routing, and control and monitoring.
Audinate aims to make the next major release of Dante
compliant with the standards emerging from the IEEE 802.1 Audio/Video Bridging
(AVB) group. It will also make AVB compliant firmware upgrades available for
many of its current products.
