eXD Konnet-K

exD konNET -K is a carefully designed Gigabit audio network switch dedicated to cope with the strict requirement of today’s high end audio network streaming. Unlike usual computer/IT network switches, they are only ensure proper data integrity and transmission, vital attention is paid to the finest details in improving network audio reproduction.

The entire network switch is complete, “ground up” audiophile grade design by exD and not “hot rodding” of an existing consumer or enterprise grade switch.

Features

 Low Phase noise OCXO with it’s own low noise regulator ensures data and transmission stability (ppb, parts per billion stability)

 Integrated LPS (linear power supply) throughout the whole design eliminates the EMI noises from conventional SMPS (switch-mode power supply).

 Individual low-noise regulators to network chip helps improving crosstalk and other unwanted modulation among various power supply pins.

 Impedance-controlled PCB design further reduces noise and ensuring proper impedance matching.

 Modular RJ45 jack integrated with isolation magnetics shorten signal paths total length and again gives significant sonic improvement.

 Gigabit Ethernet (1000Mbps) topology with extremely low noise which is crucial for critical audio streaming and this speed is more than enough for the highest sample rate playback.

 Sturdy all aluminium case construction provides great vibration isolation and screening from environmental EMI/RFI.
