7. System Setup
7.9 Setting Up RAVENNA/AES67
Introduction
7.9.1
This section is intended as an introduction to configuring and setting up RAVENNA streams. It covers the
typical configuration process and is in no way exhaustive or prescribing of how a customer should configure
their system. Some questions one should ask oneself are: how redundant the network needs to be; should the
audio network be standalone; how are the streams to be routed and controlled; where do all the audio streams
need to be routed to; etc.
Please note that RAVENNA requires a properly configured external network infrastructure to function correctly
and defining such is beyond the scope of this manual. Please refer to and consult your network administrator
and architect for network specific questions and settings.
The streaming network must be properly configured and managed. i.e. it must use a suitable network
architecture; all components must support multicast (as opposed to unicast); a proper Quality of Service
(QoS) must be configured; and so on.
Please DO NOT attempt to connect the streaming ports using an unqualifying IP network, as correct
operation cannot be guaranteed.
You can find more details about the data network requirements in the
7.9.2 What the Configuration Provides
32 stereo Rx and Tx streams are pre-configured. The streams are fully compatible with the SMPTE ST2110,
AES67 and RAVENNA standards.
By default, the 32 stereo streams are transmitted and received via port A, while port B remains unused.
Optionally, you can re-configure the two ports to support redundant streaming (via SMPTE ST2022-7). This
requires some modification of the streaming configuration and also a supporting network infrastructure.
7.9.3 Using Audio from the Network
The 32 stereo Rx streams are pre-labeled and connected to the sources named RAV 01 to RAV 32 by the
configuration. See RAVENNA
For each RAVENNA source, you can select a stream using the fader strip rotary control and TAKE button (as
described earlier). See RAVENNA Source Stream
7.9.4 Publishing Audio to the Network
The first 14 stereo Tx streams are pre-labeled and connected from the PGM, AUX and N-1 outputs by the
configuration. See RAVENNA
The remaining Tx streams can be configured by the RAVENNA Web UI (if needed).
