Modern networks are incredibly fast, but speed alone is not enough when it comes to professional audio and video applications. Even the smallest timing inconsistencies can disrupt synchronization of endpoints, creating noticeable issues that impact playback and the audience experience.
Deterministic Timing with UniFi EAV Switching
UniFi Enterprise Audio Video Switching is designed to bring precise timing and predictable low latency to modern AV networks. By introducing deterministic timing with PTP, it gives connected devices a precise shared clock for accurately timed media transport and synchronized playback. Timing through the network is measured and corrected to help maintain synchronization as deployments scale.
- Real time latency correction across every network hop
- Shared clocking for all connected AV devices with Precision Time Protocol
- Consistent and predictable clocking performance at scale with support for grandmaster, boundary, and transparent clocking
- Built specifically for high performance audio and video
Deterministic timing enables tightly synchronized audio and video across the entire network.
Sub Microsecond Synchronization in Practice
With precise timing in place, UniFi delivers synchronization at a level that eliminates human perceptible delay. Whether your endpoints are all on a single EAV switch, or whether you need an entire nested topology of EAV switches, clocking remains consistent.
- Sub microsecond synchronization across clients
- Perfectly aligned video streams
- Phase accurate audio reproduction
- Seamless coordination across distributed systems and switches
Sub microsecond precision enables true real time media synchronization at scale.
Visibility and Control with UniFi Network 10.3
UniFi Network 10.3 provides deep visibility into network behavior, giving operators the tools to monitor, analyze, and optimize AV performance with confidence.
- Visualize latency across the entire network
- Rewind historical performance and port status with Time Machine
- Identify and resolve timing issues quickly
- Upcoming Multicast Analyzer for IGMP optimization
UniFi Network turns complex AV systems into manageable network infrastructure.
