Scenario 4 - Network with VLAN and digital interconnects

This scenario is similar to the previous scenario, but substitutes digital interconnects, such as AES/EBU or SPDI/F, for analog interconnects.

• NION digital interface cards contain built-in sample rate converters (SRCs), which isolate audio clock domains from each other and allow interchange of digital audio data regardless of which clock domain the transmitting and sending devices are in.
• VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 each have their own Dante masters, so are in different audio clock domains.
• The SRC built into the digital interface card will allow exchange of digital audio between the NIONs in the two clock domains.
• Bypassing the SRC, which is possible, will cause errors on the AES/EBU interface.
