Silent Angel Bonn NX - Audio Switch - READY FOR DELIVERY in SILVER

The Ultimate Network Switch for Audiophiles

Bonn NX: The Network Switch for Audiophiles
Silent Angel takes a no-compromise approach to electronic circuit design and execution. Isolation, filtering, and noise reduction preserve the integrity of the source and deliver a pure signal to connected components. As with all Silent Angel products, our goal is to ensure the device operates on a stable system voltage, sends precisely timed packets, and reduces extraneous noise at the output. We have found that even the smallest improvement can subtly improve sound quality, and implementing many small improvements can unlock the full potential of high-resolution streaming networks. The Bonn NX is the culmination of everything we have learned about designing audio-grade network switches: it delivers the highest sonic performance available today.

Unique and advanced designs
Eight richly gold-plated Gigabit Ethernet ports feature critically spaced ports designed to minimize potential signal interference.
Class-leading Radar-Grade internal switching power module, a unique technology for noise-sensitive hearing aids.
Perfectly synchronized data transmission.
TCXO (Temperature Compensation Crystal Oscillator) significantly reduces network latency issues and jitter effects.
The brand new chassis design is constructed from two layers of carefully chosen different materials: the inner layer is galvanized steel while the outer layer is thick, high-quality aluminum alloy. This extravagant construction maximizes shielding and eddy current control, damping vibration and noise. The modern and elegant design adds great aesthetic appeal, making the Bonn NX a functional audio work of art.

Advanced options for serious audiophiles
The 12V DC power jack bypasses the internal switching power supply module, allowing connection to an external linear power supply (Forester) for a significant performance upgrade.
The gold-plated ground connection terminal provides further noise reduction.
The LED light switch allows users to turn off the door status indicator.
The class-leading clock receiving module enables external clock input.

Clock and power circuit
TCXO Clock (25MHz): Eliminate extraneous frequencies and generate pure and precise clock signal. Output high precision and extremely low phase noise signal as clock source for our Ethernet switch system.
TCXO Clock Power Supply Circuit: Uses multi-stage power filter technology, removing crosstalk and noise at different frequencies 10MHz, 100MHz and 1GHz, and providing purified power to the TCXO module.
Switching Power Supply Circuit: Ultra-low noise voltage regulator circuit, capable of processing wide dynamic range of power. Features highly efficient circuit design and fast response time. Powered by TPS56623x series which maintains lower output ripple under ALL load conditions.
AC Power Filter Circuit: High isolation common mode choke circuit for AC power input prevents noise pollution from AC power sources such as other devices or mains-connected power systems.
Exclusive and customized Silent Angel power module: AC-DC power module with wide dynamic range. Safe, stable, low ripple protection circuit, well covered by former heat sink.
Connect to optional linear power supply. DC jack for external 12V DC LPS.
External clock input port reception (gold-plated, 25 MHz).
Internal/external clock selector.

Designed for HD music streaming
The Bonn NX creates a dedicated HiFi zone to effectively isolate your audio devices from other digital traffic, eliminating noise and transmitting data with extreme timing precision. The implementation of an isolated “network ecosystem” for audio eliminates degradation caused by network interference storms and latency issues caused by bandwidth-intensive activity from PCs and other connected devices.
Exclusive Clock Module, TCXO: Silent Angel's TCXO (Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator) is more accurate than crystal clocks found in other network switches, reducing latency issues and jitter effects.
Jitter Improvement: Distortion is a common byproduct of high-frequency network packet transmission. Bonn NX reduces jitter to 369ps while typical switches are present at 705ps.
