Biamp Systems Extends Cirrus Logic CobraNet Technology License to Include Gigabit Digital Audio Networking Applications.ORLANDO, Fla. -- Cirrus Logic (company) Cirrus Logic - A manufacturer of integrated circuits including the Advanced RISC Machine and display interface processors and cards for use as Windows accelerators (requiring dedicated driver software). http://cirrus.com/. Inc. (Nasdaq:CRUS crus (krus) pl. cru´ra [L.] 1. leg (1). 2. a leglike part. crus ce´rebri ) announces that Biamp Systems, a leading manufacturer of professional audio equipment, has extended its licensing agreement for Cirrus Logic's CobraNet(TM) technology to include next-generation gigabit-Ethernet-based CobraNet networked digital audio products. In November 2005, Cirrus Logic announced an agreement with Gibson Guitar Corp. to develop gigabit-Ethernet-based networked digital audio products based upon CobraNet technology, the de facto [Latin, In fact.] In fact, in deed, actually. This phrase is used to characterize an officer, a government, a past action, or a state of affairs that must be accepted for all practical purposes, but is illegal or illegitimate. professional and commercial audio industry standard for delivering uncompressed digital audio via Ethernet networks, and compatible with Gibson's MaGIC technology. After reviewing competing digital audio networking technologies, Biamp(R) has committed to future CobraNet gigabit products due to CobraNet's superior ability to deliver and process audio signals while providing a reliable platform for networking in fixed AV installations. "Although there are other Ethernet-based protocols that allow transmission of digital audio, none of them are as network centric as CobraNet. This is what makes CobraNet technology our protocol of choice," said Matt Czyzewski, vice president of technical operations, Biamp Systems. "Our customers have designed some truly remarkable audio networks using our CobraNet capable AudiaFLEX product, and we want to empower empower verb To encourage or provide a person with the means or information to become involved in solving his/her own problems them with the ability to do so even as our industry advances well into the 21st century." "Biamp's continued commitment to CobraNet technology underscores CobraNet's leadership in this new era of products where higher channel count, lower latency (1) The time between initiating a request in the computer and receiving the answer. Data latency may refer to the time between a query and the results arriving at the screen or the time between initiating a transaction that modifies one or more databases and its completion. and networked digital audio capabilities demand gigabit Ethernet An Ethernet standard that transmits at 1 Gbps. Used mostly to connect high-end workstations and servers as well as for network backbones, Gigabit Ethernet transmits full duplex from point to point using switches and half duplex in a shared environment (CSMA/CD) using a hub. networks as the standard platform," said Keith Cheney, vice president and general manager, Embedded Inserted into.

"CobraNet technology is the leading industry standard today for networked audio, and we are committed to extending our leadership with solutions that include cost-effective integrated circuits Integrated circuits Miniature electronic circuits produced within and upon a single semiconductor crystal, usually silicon. Integrated circuits range in complexity from simple logic circuits and amplifiers, about 1/20 in. (1. , software and other products." Cirrus Logic's gigabit-Ethernet networked digital audio products, which will be introduced in 2006, will provide high-channel count media transport solutions for professional markets, while enabling secure multiroom distribution of media content in consumer markets. Unlike dedicated networks that leverage Ethernet technology, CobraNet operates over standard Ethernet equipment without the need for customization. The new products will be designed to provide high-bandwidth, ultra-low latency and secure audio and video transport. Such technologies will dramatically improve distribution and management of digital content for use in such fields as recording, live music distribution and network-based consumer content delivery, while providing the foundation for media content protection. Cirrus Logic Inc. Cirrus Logic develops high-precision, analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits A mixed-signal integrated circuit combines analog circuits with digital signal processing (DSP) circuits on a single semiconductor die. An integrated circuit that includes both analog and digital circuitry (but no DSP), like a 555 timer, is generally not considered a mixed-signal for a broad range of consumer and industrial markets. Building on its diverse analog mixed-signal patent portfolio, Cirrus Logic delivers highly optimized products for consumer and commercial audio, automotive entertainment and industrial applications. The company operates from headquarters in Austin, Texas, with offices in Colorado, Europe, Japan and Asia. More information about Cirrus Logic is available at www.cirrus.com.
