HARDWARE INSTALLATION

SETUP FOR A MULTI-SWITCH NETWORK

Use this setup if you want to connect more than ﬁve

MOTU interfaces to an extended network that

employs multiple AVB switches. AVB Ethernet is an

industry standard, so you can use MOTU AVB

Switches or 3rd-party AVB switches.

■ You can daisy-chain switches in serial fashion,

but don’t create loops. For example, switches A, B,

and C below are chained properly, but don’t

connect C back to A. Alternately, you could

connect both Switches B and C to Switch A.

■ For further information, see chapter 9,

“Networking” (page 65).

Additional switches,

interfaces, and

computers.

Switch A

Switch B

Switch C

If you have Thunderbolt-equipped MOTU AVB interfaces on the network (such as the 1248,

8M, 16A or 112D), in addition to your UltraLite AVB, use them for computer connections. The

computer then has access to 128 channels of input and output to the network.
