L-Acoustics - LS10

L-Acoustics - LS10 CE

LS10 is a plug-and-play Avnu-certified 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-byside on LS10-RAKSHELF, 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 configurable 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.
