Scenario 8 - Network with VLAN and two XDAB clusters
This scenario is a variant of the previous scenario (on page 54), but contains more than one
XDAB cluster.
The same rules apply as in the previous scenario.
Again, the Conductor for VLAN 2 must be within the XDAB cluster.
It does not matter which cluster the Conductors are in. In this case, the Conductors are
show in cluster 1.
In this example, it does not matter which device in cluster 2 is the XDAB master. The
XDAB master will receive its audio clock from a CobraNet Conductor in either VLAN 2
or VLAN 1, both of which are in sync with each other.
The clock received by any device in cluster 2 via CobraNet will be the same because the
Conductors for both VLANs are in cluster 1 and are synched to the same clock.
