AVIOM SB4 Rack-Mounted System Bridge

Aviom SB4 System Bridge for Simplified Audio Networking
The Aviom SB4 System Bridge is an essential piece of equipment for anyone working with Aviom Pro16 or Pro16e systems. This device allows you to combine up to 64 channels from four different A-Net streams into a single Cat-5 cable, greatly simplifying your cabling needs. Whether you're managing personal mixing, digital snake setups, or audio distribution systems, the SB4 streamlines connections and ensures a stable and reliable transfer of audio data. Designed to integrate seamlessly with a variety of Pro16 devices, it’s the perfect solution for those who need efficient and organized connectivity for larger audio networks.

Efficient Channel Stream Management
One of the key advantages of the SB4 is its ability to combine four 16-channel A-Net streams into one single output. This functionality drastically reduces the number of cables needed and makes setup cleaner and more manageable. By transporting audio data over a single Cat-5 cable, the SB4 eliminates the need for multiple cables, providing both a space-saving and cost-effective solution. Whether you're using it to connect digital console cards or analog input modules, this bridge ensures you can handle complex audio setups with ease.

Durable and Secure Connectivity
The SB4 System Bridge features Neutrik EtherCon connectors, ensuring a secure and stable connection for your audio network. These heavy-duty connectors are designed for professional environments where reliability is critical, ensuring that your cables stay securely connected even during high-demand usage. The EtherCon connectors, both on the rear panel for A-Net I/O ports and on the front panel for the A-Net Bridge output, deliver a robust and dependable audio connection. The locking mechanism adds an extra layer of security, preventing accidental disconnections during operation.

Expandability and Flexibility
The SB4 not only simplifies your setup, but it also offers room for future expansion. If your system requires more inputs or outputs, multiple SB4 units can be linked together to create a larger, more complex digital snake system. This flexibility allows you to scale your audio network as needed, accommodating a wide range of audio sources and destinations. Additionally, by incorporating the ASI A-Net Systems Interface, the SB4 can integrate seamlessly into a Pro64 A-Net system, making it a versatile option for evolving audio setups.

No Power Supply Required for Simplicity
Another advantage of the SB4 System Bridge is that it doesn’t require an external power supply to function. This not only reduces the clutter and complexity of your setup but also makes it easier to integrate into existing systems without additional equipment. This design decision ensures that the SB4 remains easy to use, without requiring extra cables or power sources. The system is powered directly through the A-Net network, allowing it to be a true plug-and-play solution for your audio needs.
