2.2 Connectivity
2.2.1 Network
E-power requires at least one Ethernet connection for configuration and audio streaming. Configuration is performed
using the provided AVBStreamer toolbox software and using a single Ethernet cable.
• A standard-straight through Ethernet CAT5/6 network is required for connectivity through a network switch.
• A crossover CAT-5/6 cable is required for direct connectivity to a PC/Mac machine that doesn’t support
auto-switching.
E-power devices utilize “Zeroconf” technology for plug&play integration.
- If a DHCP server is present at boot up, the E-power will automatically acquire an IP address
- If no DHCP server is present at boot up, the E-power will use the Link Local Address (Auto IP) P 169.254.0.xxx
Network requirements:
• Audio Video Bridging systems requires special AVB enabled network switches ( so called AVB bridge) to
enjoy the advanced features of AVB such as the Stream Reservation Protocol. Such AVB bridge will have
the capability to shape the traffic of the network such that any AVB traffic has higher priority.
