CobraNet® technology, the de facto standard of digital audio networking technology from Cirrus Logic, has established itself as the product of choice for multivendor networked audio. The CM-2 is based on the highly integrated CS1810xx or CS4961xx CobraNet Silicon Series, providing an interface in the form of a compact, low-power, low-cost module. Featuring 2, 8 or 16 bi-directional channels, the CM-2 is designed to be easily integrated into a wide variety of audio products such as signal processors, mixers, amplifiers and self-powered loudspeakers.
Features
100BASE-Tx Ethernet interface — 100 Mbps, full-duplex Ethernet, fully compliant with IEEE 802.3u Standard
Secondary 100BASE-Tx Ethernet interface — redundant network connection for fault tolerance
Quad synchronous serial output ports — capable of supplying 2, 8 or 16 channels at 48 or 96 kHz sample rates
Quad synchronous serial input ports — capable of receiving 2, 8 or 16 channels at 48 or 96 kHz sample rates
Studio-grade, low-jitter clock source — less than 1 ns of jitter
High speed parallel host port interface — interfaces to an optional external control processor
SNMP agent — standards-based Ethernet control, monitoring and management
TFTP support — firmware updates over the network
Low latency — selectable 1.33, 2.66 or 5.33 ms across network
Optional remote power through RJ-45 connection — for powering via the Cat-5 Ethernet connection. External circuitry required
Asynchronous serial I/O port — bridge serial control data over Ethernet
Status LEDs — link, activity and CobraNet conductor status for each Ethernet jack
