Innuos PhoenixNET Network Switch

Typical IT network switches/routers are designed with the sole purpose of taking data from A to B with a noise floor and precision that is "enough" for the rate of transmission. This is fine for data networks but when sensitive components such as DACs and Pre-Amplifiers are involved, it will have an audible impact on sound quality.

The PhoenixNET is the realization of Innuos' philosophy of simplicity and signal purity applied to the network switch. Having started with improvements to the Ethernet ports' clock on their flagship Statement, Innuos has now taken the concept to the next level with a completely new network switch design that focuses exclusively on audio use.

• Simpler 100mbps network switch chip results in lower operating noise floor compared to Gigabit
• Network switch chip with no internal switching regulators. All 3 independent voltages supplied by internal Statement-grade linear power supply with independent ultra-low noise regulation.
• Massive individual Network Isolation Transformers to further isolate from noise coming from router or connected devices
• Just the right amount of Individually shielded, high quality ethernet ports soldered directly to the board with no ethernet activity lights as blinking leds introduce considerable electrical noise.
• EMI absorption at the right places so that interference produced can be captured before influencing other components.

• Input: 1x RJ45
• Output: 3x RJ45
• Network Speed: 100Mbps
• Mains Supply: 230V AC/115V AC – 2 x Internal Linear Power Supply
• Power Consumption: 3W when idle, 7.5W peak
• Dimensions: 215mm x 342mm x 87mm (W x D x H)
• Weight: 5 Kg
