Ediscreation Silent Switch OCXO II

Ediscreation Silent Switch OCXO II is a network switch developed specifically for high-end streaming and music systems. It is designed to create optimal operating conditions for streamers, music servers, and DACs by focusing on signal stability, low noise, and precise clock synchronization.

Unlike traditional network switches, the Silent Switch OCXO II is built with components and technologies developed with digital audio systems in mind. The combination of an OCXO clock, linear power supply, galvanic isolation, and dedicated network circuits makes it a central element in advanced streaming solutions.

Developed for digital music systems

Today, streaming is the primary music source in many hi-fi systems. That is why the network infrastructure plays an increasingly important role in the overall digital playback chain.

Silent Switch OCXO II handles network traffic between router, music server, streamer, and DAC with a focus on stable signal conditions. The design is developed to reduce electrical noise and create optimal conditions for network-based music playback.

High-precision OCXO clock

At the core of the Silent Switch OCXO II is the integrated OCXO clock (Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator), which operates with very high frequency stability and low jitter.

The precise clock contributes to more stable timing conditions in the network signal and supports consistent data transfer between the connected devices. For digital audio systems, timing and signal integrity are key factors, which is why OCXO technology is an important part of the design.

Advanced linear power supply

Ediscreation has equipped the Silent Switch OCXO II with a multi-stage linear power supply and an audio-grade toroidal transformer.

The clock section, network circuits, and SFP modules are powered separately to minimize internal interference between the circuits. This design contributes to stable operating conditions and supports the switch's focus on low electrical noise.

Ground Isolation and noise reduction

Network equipment can introduce ground noise and electrical interference into a music system. The Silent Switch OCXO II is therefore equipped with a Ground Isolation Switch developed to reduce unwanted noise influence from connected network devices.

At the same time, the independent SFP modules allow for optical connections, which can contribute to additional galvanic isolation between the components in the network.

Refined construction for high-end streaming

Silent Switch OCXO II is built with a focus on both electrical and mechanical quality. Audio-grade Neutrik LAN ports ensure a stable connection and support larger network cables, while CNC-machined heat sinks and feet contribute to a robust, resonance-controlled construction.

In addition, the switch supports Ediscreation's Synchronize Clock Bus, which can be used together with Fiberbox III for further system integration.

Why enthusiasts choose an audiophile network switch

An audiophile network switch is developed with a focus on signal stability, clock precision, and noise control in digital music systems. For users with dedicated streamers, music servers, and DACs, the network infrastructure can be an important part of the overall optimization of the streaming chain.

Ediscreation Silent Switch OCXO II is developed for exactly this purpose and serves as a specialized link between network and audio system in uncompromising streaming setups
