AVB stands for Audio Video Bridge. It is a new standard for transmitting uninterrupted, synchronised digital audio and video signals over Ethernet. There have been a few technologies to do this in the past, but AVB is different in that it is a standard set by the IEEE, rather than being a proprietary solution. The intended user-base is expected to be widespread, and includes consumer and automotive products, as well as pro AV installations.
