It's the maximum output of power transformer. Actual output power for one 5V line is 15W (3A).
Besides, the power requirements for the NET Card FEMTO are higher than e.g. USB Card FEMTO. That's why we had to use heatsinks.

Is this similar to the Rednet system by Focusrite?

No. Rednet uses DANTE system.
NET Card FEMTO uses standard TCP/IP protocols, but using highest grade hardware. I'm pretty sure Rednet can benefit from it as well.
Any point using this for a PC that doesn't do streaming at all? I don't even stream from NAS. I use headless single PC with built in SSD storage.
If you're using JPLAY then it could be some benefit as JPLAY uses network internally, but not sure if the improvement would justify the cost.

This card is great if you use microRendu or sotm sms200

Or Roon core -> Roon ready
or PC music server -> Linn / Lumin / Auralic Aries ... (any network player)

DIY Music Server, SSD storage powered by Pink Faun ATX PSU, Windows 10, Fidelizer and AudiophileOptimizer, Upplay, Asset UPnP; JPlay Net Card Femto powered by Teradak PSU, MSB Select DAC with Renderer V2 module, Pro ISL module and Preamp module; MSB Reference Transport and TAD Reference ONE speakers powered by Accuphase A250, Vertex AQ HiRez Balanced Taga and HiRez Aneto; Synergestic Research Atmosphere Level 4 cables and Ground Box in a 42 square meters treated room with RPG and panels.

Or, for a PC/Music Server with DHCP Server directly connected to a DAC with Renderer input, no switch in between.
It should be amazing!
Exactly

Does the card support network bridging under Windows 10?

Yes
I believe that's how many microRendu / sms200 users would like to use the card - to connect one port to router and 2nd to network renderer.
The method was first described by romaz on CA: https://www.computer...and-microrendu/

Good news and yes that is exactly my intent.

Hi Mihaylov and welcome!
Thanks for the links!
BTW - we recommended direct ethernet connection between control pc (server) and audio PC (USB audio endpoint) late 2012 with the introduction of JPLAY dual PC mode

If I understand correctly the SMS200 firmware has just been updated to allow setting a static IP address.
So I guess this should simplify the setup using a dual Ethernet card..
No need go through that bridging stuff...
Do I got that correct ?
Thanks...
(PS: maybe good to post some step-by-step instructions for some of these likely scenarios.)

That's not really correct, there are others configurations required: default gateway, dns server... all these settings are sent by the DHCP server, so the bridge send all these infos from the dhcp server to the sms-200. This is really easy to configure, I did it and that takes me 10 minutes

I agree, network bridge is probably the easiest way: http://www.thewindow...-bridge-windows
