CM-2 Features
• 100BASE-TX Ethernet Interface –
100 Mbps, full-duplex Ethernet, fully
compliant with IEEE 802.3u Standard.
• Secondary 100BASE-TX Ethernet
Interface – redundant network
connection for fault tolerance.
• Quad Synchronous Serial Output Ports –
capable of supplying 8 or 16 channels
at 48 or 96 kHz sample rates.
• Quad Synchronous Serial Input Ports –
capable of receiving 8 or 16 channels
at 48 or up to 96 kHz sample rates.
• Studio Grade, Low-Jitter Clock Source –
less than 1 ns of jitter.
• High Speed Parallel Host Port Interface –
interfaces to an optional external control
processor.
CobraNet Technology Advantages
• SNMP Agent – Standards-based Ethernet
control, monitoring and management.
• TFTP Support – firmware updates over the
network.
• Low Latency – selectable 1.33, 2.66
or 5.33 ms across network.
• Optional Remote Power Through RJ-45
Connection – for powering via the Cat-5
Ethernet connection. External circuitry
required.
• Asynchronous Serial I/O Port – bridge serial
control data over Ethernet.
• Status LEDs – Link, Activity and CobraNet
conductor status for each Ethernet jack.
• Available as low-cost ICs without licensing
or royalty fees

data traffic over existing Ethernet networks,
saving money by eliminating additional
infrastructure costs
• De-facto industry standard with
tens-of-thousands of installed nodes
in high-profile “mission-critical”
venues worldwide
• Networked audio, control and monitoring
(bi-directional)
• Uses SNMP for control and monitoring
(IT-friendly)
• Incorporates multiple fault-tolerant
features
• Ability to send audio from any CobraNet
interface to any other – unlimited

Ethernet Electrical Specifications
Physical Specifications
• Ethernet Primary Connector – RJ-45 jack. Standard Ethernet pinout.
Complies with IEEE 802.3u Standard.
• Ethernet Secondary Connector – RJ-45 jack. Standard Ethernet
pinout. Complies with IEEE 802.3u Standard.
• Ethernet uses 2 of the 4 twisted wire pairs available on a Cat-5
cable. The unused pairs are available at the module interface
connector as Cable Power for DC power (if supplied).
The module is a 3.5-inch square circuit board, equipped with two
Ethernet connectors. Four mounting holes are provided along with an
optional bracket for chassis mounting. Connector options are available
allowing the module to be mounted in a variety of ways to achieve
maximum flexibility in space-limited systems.
