AES — Audio Engineering Society and Digital Audio Standards
The Audio Engineering Society (AES) and its key standards — AES3, AES67, MADI, and OCA — that define professional digital audio.

AES67 — Audio over IP Interoperability Standard
AES67 is the SMPTE/AES standard for interoperable audio over IP, defining RTP transport, PTP clocking, and SDP/SAP discovery so that Dante, Ravenna, Livewire, and Q-LAN devices can exchange audio across platforms.

PTP — Precision Time Protocol (IEEE 1588)
PTP (IEEE 1588) synchronizes clocks across a network to sub-microsecond accuracy — essential for Dante, AES67, AV-over-IP, and any system where audio or video devices must share a common time reference.

RTP and RTSP — Real-Time Transport Protocols
RTP carries real-time audio and video over IP networks; RTSP controls the playback of those streams — together they underpin Dante, AES67, IP camera streaming, and IPTV in AV systems.
