16 Facts About AES70

AES70 is intended to support media networks that combine devices from diverse manufacturers.

AES70 is for device control, monitoring, and connection management only.

However, AES70 is designed to work with virtually any media transport scheme, as the application requires.

AES70 is termed an "architecture" because it provides the basis for definition of multiple control protocols.

OCA, the architecture of AES70, was developed by the OCA Alliance, trade association, beginning in 2011.
