An AVB network relies on an intelligent AVB switch to analyze network traffic and ensure that critical audio data is prioritised when connecting more than two devices.

This guarantees the low-latency, high-quality audio performance for which AVB is known. The PreSonus® SW5E AVB switch fully complies to the AVB standard while providing Power over Ethernet (PoE) to devices that can take advantage of it, like the PreSonus EarMix 16M.
