Developed by Peak Audio, CobraNet(TM) technology allows real-time uncompressed digital audio distribution over industry standard 100Base-T Ethernet networks. Based on the Ethernet-MAC-protocol, it is possible to reach an isochronous, i. e. a highly reliable datastream with very low latency and a bandwidth of 100 Mbit/s.
CobraNet(TM) technology allows the transport of isochronous datastreams required by audio and video applications in 10 and 100 MBit Ethernet networks where an upgrade to e.g. 1 GBit is always possible. Additionally, CobraNet(TM) technology can carry asynchronous control data without conflict to the isochronous data.
Up to 64 channels (20 Bit/48 kHz) can be carried simultaneously over a category 5 cable. CobraNet(TM) currently supports a 48 kHz sampler frequency with a 16, 20, or 24 bitrate. A respectively configured network can handle up to 3000 audio channels. When using category 5 cables, a maximum cable-length of 100 m should not be exceeded.
As CobraNet(TM) consists of standard Ethernet-components available in the IT retail business, high quality products can be bought at a competitive price.
CobraNet(TM) devices can coexist with networked computers, printers, etc. on a switched 100Base-T Ethernet network, however, a dedicated network infrastructure is strongly recommended.
