Yes, the built in Ethernet port does not transport audio. To send 32
channels of audio back and forth you would need 2 cards in each
console. They could be EtherSound, CobraNet, Optocore, Aviom64,
RocknNet, or probably some I've forgotten, but each card can only send
and receive 16 channels.

We just had symphony pops in our hall with the music of STYX and Dennis
DeYoung. Two VI-6's came off the truck (very neat little package)
We ran two cat five's from stage rack to FOH. At a casual look, here
were guys doing this sharing digitally and running cat Five FOH.

Well, all was not as it seemed. It was cat 5 to FOH all right, but they
did a passive split at monitor position with a separate stage rack for
both the FOH and MOnitor VI6. They seemed to think this way they could
both trim the gains and not have to fight over who has control of the
pre's. Fact or fantasy, that's what these guys thought.
