LHY AUDIO AS8 Pro+ Network Switch Silver

LHY Audio offers us their AS8 Pro+ network switch. It features 6 RJ45 Ethernet ports and 2 SFP fiber optic ports, as well as a dedicated input and output connected to its built-in 10MHz OCXO SC-CUT clock. Everything is housed in an elegant CNC-machined anodized aluminum chassis designed to minimize resonance and engineered to physically separate data processing, audio signal processing, internal clock circuitry, and the power supply stage.

LHY Audio AS8 Pro+: Stable Power Supply with No Parasitic Noise

The AS8 Pro features two 50VA transformers delivering a regulated linear power supply coupled with an RFI suppression filter. Once converted, the current passes through a multi-stage low-drop voltage regulator and a voltage rectifier to ensure the cleanest possible power delivery.

LHY Audio AS8 Pro+: OCXO SC-CUT Clock

For signal processing, the LHY Audio AS8 Pro+ offers 6 RJ45 ports, including two with digital isolation, and two optical SFP ports, one of which also benefits from digital isolation. At its core lies a 10MHz OCXO SC-CUT clock, connected to both a BNC input and output. This allows the switch to function as a master clock to synchronize other external sources or simply to reclock the incoming signal. Finally, it is worth noting that the OCXO SC-CUT clock is paired with a PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) system.
