Innuos NazaréNET Network Switch

NAZARÉ-Grade Power Supply 

The power supply is engineered to the same exacting standard as the NAZARÉ music server — representing the most advanced power design the company has produced to date.

At its core are high-precision, custom-wound toroidal transformers, paired with bespoke Lundahl inductors, forming the foundation for exceptionally clean and stable power delivery. The rectification and filtering stage is built around Innuos’ proprietary GaN-ARC8 modules, developed in collaboration with renowned power supply designer Dr. Sean Jacobs. Using gallium nitride-based active rectification and a substantial energy storage reservoir of 376,000 µF, these modules ensure both speed and stability under dynamic demand.

Regulation is handled by four advanced DC4 modules — also co-developed with Dr. Sean Jacobs — incorporating high-precision foil resistors to maintain an ultra-stable, ultra-low-noise output across all operating conditions. Premium internal cabling completes the design, preserving signal integrity between each stage.

WaveNET Board 

The WaveNET board is not adapted from conventional networking hardware — it is purpose-built for audio.

Its ultra-low noise philosophy governs every aspect of the design, from component selection to circuit layout. By addressing the root causes of electrical interference, WaveNET ensures that network signal integrity is maintained at a level far beyond typical consumer or enterprise solutions.

This is where engineering meets listening — where measurable improvements translate directly into audible gains.

Four Dedicated Power Rails 

Central to the WaveNET design is four independently regulated and electrically isolated power rails – one for each critical section of the system.

The precision OCXO clock is the timing heartbeat of the switch. Isolating it completely ensures it operates in the quietest possible electrical environment.

The analogue PHY transceivers, responsible for signal transmission and reception, are the most noise-sensitive in the design: they handle tiny analogue signals and are easily disturbed by switching activity elsewhere on the board. A dedicated, clean supply for these circuits is essential to achieving the low noise floor that audiophile performance demands.

The digital Ethernet controller is separated across two independently regulated rails, isolating processing activity from both the clock and analogue transceivers. This careful distribution prevents high-frequency switching noise from reaching the most critical parts of the signal path.

The result is an exceptionally low noise floor and a level of timing accuracy that translates directly into greater coherence, detail, and realism in music reproduction.
