- AES51
AES51 is a standard first published by the
Audio Engineering Society in June 2006 ( [http://www.aes.org Official Site] ) that specifies a method of carrying ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode ) cells overEthernet physical structure intended in particular for use withAES47 to carryAES3 digital audio transport structure. The purpose of this is to provide an open standard,Ethernet based approach to the networking of linear (uncompressed) digital audio with extremely high quality-of-service alongside standardInternet Protocol connections.AES51 details
This standard specifies a method, also known as “ATM-E”, of carrying
asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) cells over hardware specified forIEEE 802.3 (Ethernet). It is intended as a companion standard toAES47 (Transmission of digital audio over ATM networks), to provide a standard method of carrying ATM cells and real-time clock over hardware specified for Ethernet.The full details of AES51 can be studied in the standards section of theAudio Engineering Society [http://www.aes.org/publications/standards/ web site] by downloading copies of the AES51 document as a PDF file.
