For many years, synchronous networks have beenrnconsidered the industry standard for audiorntransport worldwide. Balanced analog copperrncircuits, microwave and synchronous basedrnsystems such as V.35/X.21 or T1/E1 have beenrnthe traditional choice for studio transmitter andrninter-studio links in professional audio broadcastrnnetworks. Readily available from all major servicernproviders, the popularity of synchronous links hasrnbeen largely due to the fact that they offerrndedicated, reliable, point-to-point and bi-directionalrncommunication at guaranteed data and error rates.rnHowever, the reign of synchronous links as thernpreferred choice for STLs is currently comingrnunder threat from a new challenger, in the form ofrnIP-based network technology.
