Product catalog summary
Overview of Networked Digital Audio Technology: This document outlines various components and applications of networked digital audio technology, including facility audio distribution, power amplifiers, paging stations, intercoms, media servers, signal processors, mixing consoles, voice audio recording, archival and playback, microphone preamps, audio snakes, A/D and D/A interfaces, ceiling speakers, self-powered speakers, whole-house audio, and security and surveillance systems.
CobraNet™ Technology: CobraNet™ is highlighted as the standard for real-time, high-fidelity, uncompressed digital audio transport over Ethernet networks. It allows dynamic routing of digital audio across a network, leveraging standard Ethernet equipment to minimize costs and infrastructure needs. Key benefits include high-fidelity audio, real-time reconfiguration, and fault tolerance for critical applications.
CobraNet Products: Cirrus Logic offers a range of CobraNet solutions, including the CS1810xx and CS4961xx Silicon Series, which provide multiple channels of audio input and output with configurable sample rates and sizes. The CS4961xx series includes a 32-bit audio DSP for local signal processing. CM-1 and CM-2 modules facilitate easy integration of CobraNet technology into audio products.
Development Tools: Several tools are available for CobraNet development, including CobraNet Discovery for network maintenance, CobraCAD for network design validation, DSP Conductor for audio signal processing development, and CobraNet Object Tools for application development. The EV-2 Evaluation & Developer’s Kit provides a platform for evaluating and developing CobraNet products.
Resources: Additional information and support can be found on Cirrus Logic's website and through their sales representatives.
