The Bonn N16’s unique design consists of two individual 8-port switch subsystems and an advanced linear system power supply in a rack-mountable chassis. Each subsystem has a linear-powered TCXO clock module allowing transmission with less interference while sending accurately timed data over the audio network.
Nowadays, many manufacturers use low-cost commodity components. Although acceptable for data transfer, it does not adequately support an audio-grade network. Thus, the N16 was born to pursue superior audio quality by improving many details without compromise.
The N16 purifies audio network signals to create low-noise and low-interference environments perfect for music streaming. Each zone contains an individual 8-port Gigabit Ethernet subsystem and clock module, effectively separating your audio devices from household traffic and reducing the impact from network broadcasting storms and latency.
