SAN FRANCISCO — Media Numerics took the opportunity at AES to introduce RockNet, a suite of networking technology designed to provide cost-effective, enhanced audio (and data) distribution for the full spectrum of sound applications. RockNet, is a real-time, audio/data distribution network expressly designed for touring and installed sound applications. The system's initial products aim to provide a cost-effective, universal solution to the full spectrum of audio distribution applications, from stadium to shed, theatrical, House of Worship and corporate productions.
Designed to perform like a traditional analog active split system, RockNet can link up to 99 devices into a single network comprising 160 audio channels. These 160 channels can be 'dropped' to a maximum of 768 outputs in the bidirectional network without limitation. A particular RockNet benefit is a streamline redundancy concept on the device and network level. In a ring configuration the network is self-healing for single connection failures.
