Get More Control Over Your System With The PreSonus SW5E AVB Switch W/ PoE

The PreSonus SW5E is a five-port AVB switch. Four of the ports can provide Power over Ethernet (PoE) for PoE-compatible devices, while the fifth port is non-PoE, which is useful for linking to additional switches. Housed in a rugged, all-metal chassis, it can be rack mounted using a rack tray (not included). All ports employ secure, rugged Ethercon jacks, making the SW5E a great choice for live sound systems.

Remote Power for Networked Devices

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that enables network cables to carry electrical power to compatible devices. With PoE, a single cable delivers both network data, such as digital audio, and electrical power. You can locate a PoE-enabled device anywhere you can run an Ethernet cable because you don't need a local power source. Four of the SW5E's five ports can provide PoE, a rare feature in the current generation of AVB switches. The SW5E's fifth port is non-PoE, which is useful for linking to additional switches to create a larger network.

Tough Enough For Live Sound

Live sound gigs are hard on gear, and if your network fails, the show could be over. That's why the SW5E is built to stand up to the rigors of live sound and perform reliably every time. In addition to using rugged Ethercon connectors, the SW5E is housed in a heavy-duty, all-metal chassis and can be rack mounted using a rack tray (not included). The unit also employs an internal power supply with standard IEC connector-not a clumsy supply that could easily get bumped loose.

A Great Networking Solution for Studiolive Digital Mixers

When used with StudioLive digital mixers, an SW5E AVB switch makes many wonderful things possible. Use an SW5E to network StudioLive Series III consoles or to connect a StudioLive AI-series console and StudioLive RML-series rack mixer (as a stage box). Put an SW5E at the center of your network to connect a StudioLive RML-series rack mixer with a StudioLive CS18AI control surface. You can even cascade two StudioLive RML-series mixers to create a larger system by AVB networking them with an SW5E.

You also can use the SW5E to connect non-PreSonus AVB-enabled equipment. As long as the product is compatible with the AVB specification, it is compatible with the SW5E.
