In this presentation, Audinate will share its vision on how Dante and AES67/SMPTE 2110 can be used together in a modern studio, including Dante Domain Manager. A tour of Dante’s managed and unmanaged integration with open standards will lead to a discussion of the need for network security, Layer 3 traversal, and fault monitoring in real time. All will be laid out with practical diagrams of broadcast studios from location sound, to small studios and large properties for practical application.

AIP04 - Deploying SMPTE ST 2110 in a Distributed Campus System
Presenters:Cassidy Lee Phillips, Imagine Communications - Plano, TX, USA
Tony Pearson, North Carolina State University
When NC State University (NCSU) was looking to upgrade the Pro-AV gear driving its Distance Education and Learning Technology Applications (DELTA) program, they decided to future-proof their infrastructure with a standards-based approach to IP, while continuing to leverage existing SDI gear. Using SMPTE ST 2110, NCSU significantly multiplied the capacity of their fiber infrastructure — where four single-mode fiber strands had supported four HD video channels, now just two fiber strands deliver 32 bidirectional HD channels.
This presentation will share the real-world experiences and lessons learned from adopting AES67 and ST 2110 to successfully deploy a first-of-its-kind inter-campus Pro-AV system.
Wednesday, October 16, 12:30 pm — 1:00 pm (IP Pavilion Theater)

AIP25 - Audio in ST 2110 Facility and across WAN
Presenter:Andy Rayner, Nevion
The ST2110 and NMOS standards are now maturing and in serious use globally. In an all-IP production environment, there are key requirements for the manipulation of audio within a facility. Further to this there are challenges of how essence-flow synchronization is automatically maintained. When sharing audio between facilities for remote/meshed/distributed production there are further challenges for integrity, timing and control.
The presentation will look at all of these facility and wide area challenges and use recent deployments as case studies to demonstrate how these have been overcome.

AIP08 - Innovation through Open Technologies
Presenter:Nestor Amaya, Ross Video / COVELOZ Technologies - Ottawa, ON, Canada
Where would today's Cloud, smartphones and embedded IoT engines be without Linux? And could we have gotten here with a proprietary OS such as Windows? Similarly, this presentation argues that Pro Audio/Video applications need open technologies to serve the unique needs of their users. Our markets need a fully open stack, beyond just AES67/ST 2110 transport, to reap the benefits of our investment in A/V networking technologies. Learn how NMOS, EmBER+ and similar open technologies enable you to innovate and serve your users better when compared to proprietary control systems.

AIP27 - AES67 and SMPTE ST 2110 - The Vulcan Nerve Pinch to RAVENNA?
Presenter:Andreas Hildebrand, ALC NetworX GmbH - Munich, Germany
When RAVENNA was introduced to the industry back in 2010, several – mostly proprietary – AoIP solutions were existing, but no standard was yet visible. Although RAVENNA is an open technology approach, with its modular architecture fully based on existing and well-accepted standards, people seemed to be confused by the wide choice of competing and non-interoperable solutions. The arrival of AES67 in 2013 made people cheer and pay homage to an AoIP standard they believed would finally render any other solutions obsolete… 4 years later, SMPTE published its suite of ST 2110 documents, with ST 2110-30 (linear PCM audio transport) fully referencing AES67 as its basis. A closer look at these standards reveals that RAVENNA – published some 7 years before the arrival of ST 2110 – was build on exactly the same protocols and functions as AES67 and ST 2110. So, does this mean, RAVENNA is now obsolete, being forced to coma by the AES67/ST 2110 nerve pinch? Andreas Hildebrand, RAVENNA Evangelist at ALC NetworX, Germany, explains why this Vulcan nerve pinch does not have any effect for RAVENNA at all…
