Introduction
LS10 AVB switch
LS10 is an Avnu™-certied AVB switch that integrates seamlessly within the L-Acoustics ecosystem to further simplify
connectivity, uniting audio and control distribution. LS10 runs out-of-the-box AVB, providing a reliable network solution
that does not require IT expertise.
On its own or as an integral part of the LA-RAK II AVB, LS10 distributes audio and control via front and rear etherCON™
connectors and SFP cages, enabling long-distance optical links. Two units mounted side-by-side on the dedicated 1U rack
shelf allow to create a seamless redundant network effortlessly. Upgrading LA-RAK II to LA-RAK II AVB is possible.
The rugged LS10 incorporates features designed to overcome the challenges of touring events but also installation
applications. The quick, 5-second, startup time allows for rapid recovery in case of power loss. A congurable GPO port
enables status monitoring and the auxiliary DC input offers ultimate reliability.
With LS10, lightning-quick setup of a stable distribution of your AVB signal is ensured without the need for extensive IT
knowledge or experience.
