Melco S100
Melco S100 hos Lefflers Ljud & Bildupplevelser i Norrköping
Alla Melco Digital Music Library-produkter har Melcos tysta nätverksswitch-teknik inbyggd. Men man erbjuder nu även Melcos switchteknik även till dem som bara använder strömmande tjänster och som inte behöver lagra musik lokalt i sitt nätverk, men som ändå vill få en del av de förbättringar som en Melco Digital Music Library ger.
Men om man har en Melco Digital Music Library-modell, så kan man förstås ge den en ännu tystare miljö att jobba igenom att ansluta en Melco S100 switch som är en nätverksswitch utvecklad för maximera prestandan i strömmande musikanläggningar.The Melco S100 is quite an unusual architecture compared to an IT dataswitch. There are four 100Mb RJ45 ports – these provide the best audio quality. There are four 1Gb ports – these are ideal for PC connectivity, and are ideal for the Roon Core processor which generates high traffic flow.
Two additional SFP ports allow for the connection of optical fibre for components such as Lumin that support it.
The key to creating a stable and resilient data stream for extreme Hi-Res streaming is the Packet Buffer and S100 has 1.5MB of buffer capability to deal with erratic external connectivity.
Audiophile techniques are used in the power supply implementation with a bank of audio-grade capacitors to ensure the lowest noise environment. Power supplies are external to the S100 giving good isolation and allowing for future upgrade to external linear power supplies.
Mechanical stability contributes to system performance and the S100 is built on a rigid steel chassis with total screening provided by the totally metal enclosure which matches Melco Audiophile NAS components
