N8S

Revamped Classic N8 - Evolved Design

Dual Optical-Electrical Paths, Cleaner Streaming

SFP and RJ45 Interfaces

Hi-Fi-Grade Optimized Network-Switch Architecture, Delivers Clean and Stable Network Signals for Your Streamers, NAS and DACs to Recover Music’s Authentic Texture

Main-Controller Clock Fed by a Dedicated TCXO Clock Board

Built-in 0.1ppm TCXO oscillator. The system is powered via optimized trace lengths and linear LDO regulators, greatly improving the unit’s current-noise performance.

Multiple High-Performance High-Current Linear LDOs

Front-stage uses genuine ADI LT3042 combined with PNP devices to deliver high-current, low-ripple power supply. Three-channel SGM2208 devices on the rear-stage provide next-level low-noise power delivery.
