What is a Wheatnet-IP Network?

Are you new to Wheatstone products, or new to Wheatnet-IP in general? For even the most capable and qualified engineers and installers, the design and functionality of our systems can be a lot to take in at one time. What exactly is this network capable of, and what does it do? What can it do for me and my plant operations? If you’re just being introduced to our systems and you don’t know much of anything about Wheatnet-IP at all, first of all congratulations. This is going to be awesome! You may think its just some blades and consoles and a few auxiliary boxes that all route audio using a matrix with basic ins and outs, and in a broad sense, you would be kind of correct. However, this doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface of the capabilities of our Intelligent Network’s technology.

Have a read over the introductory excerpt from our Blade 4 manual about what a Wheatnet IP network is? Hopefully you’ll come away with a better conceptualization and more questions about how you can make your Wheatnet, yours.
