The Ansuz PowerSwitches are LAN/Ethernet switches which epitomize a pioneering approach to both noise cancellation and signal distribution in High End streaming networks.
The quality of musical streaming performance – either from a storage unit or from one of the streaming services is not only contingent upon the quality of your individual network streamer integrated in your audio system but also on the upstream network technology.
Via the World Wide Web, the network streamer is exposed to all kinds of noisy electronics such as computers, routers, switches, etc. – where the noise floor does not matter in the same way as it does in audio streaming. And, since the Ethernet is a floating network, there is no ground connection to drain out the noise floor. So, the challenge is to get the audio data stream as clean and low noise as possible before it gets into the actual streamer.
The new Ansuz PowerSwitches take an unprecedented approach to tackle the issue of noise suppression. They are all equipped with Ansuz’s innovative grounding circuitry that cancels out a large amount of all these noise disturbances. To lower this disturbing noise level to an absolute minimum, Ansuz has endowed their PowerSwitches with further innovative and remarkably effective noise suppressing technologies. Higher quantities and the latest, even more advanced versions of the Ansuz Tesla Coils define the range of network switches starting from the Ansuz X-TC entry level up to our D-TC Supreme flagship model.
Since network switches are extremely sensitive to the quality of their power supply, all Ansuz PowerSwitches are equipped with their own internal power supply that boasts a particularly stable resonance mode. The noise cancelling technologies inside the Ansuz PowerSwitches work hand in glove with all the technological innovations used in all the other Ansuz products like the Mainz8 Power Distributor – a mains and ground distribution unit – or the PowerBoxes. Through the mains network and the powercords, the effects of these technologies are able to unfold both up- and down-stream, and form a mutually re-enforcing alliance when it comes to cleaning the audio data streaming from signal induced fluctuations and lowering the noise floor throughout the whole audio/video system. Ansuz PowerSwitches also feature a built-in PowerBox with 10 low power outputs – located below the eight LAN-ports – designed for Ansuz actively shielded Internet cables. These outputs can also be used to shield other active Ansuz digital cables. For Ansuz analog cables, we recommend using one of the Ansuz PowerBoxes separately.
The Ansuz D·TC SUPREME Power Switch Box reflects another quantum leap in audio technology. The D·TC SUPREME Power Switch Box is heavily equipped with Ansuz technologies. Configuring your streaming network according to our guidelines, this top model will not only enormously benefit the quality of the streaming output but also advance the audio potential of the entire music system.
The Ansuz D2 Power Switch Box look exactly like the X·TC model, but make no mistake, the step in performance from the X·TC to the D2 model is clear and easy to hear. This also applies if you compare the D2 to the A2 model. All Ansuz PowerSwitches represents each their quality level – there is a number of different noise reduction technologies at work depending on the type and extent of the intended noise cancellation – technologies that are hearable.
The Ansuz X·TC Power Switch Box is a sophisticated Ethernet switch. It provides a great power supply, best grounding, efficient shielding, and a mechanical design with excellent mechanical grounding through Darkz Feet (upgradable with Darkz and titanium balls). Additionally, the Ansuz Power Switch Box has an integrated Power Box to power the active Ethernet and Digital cables (D2, D-TC & D-TC Supreme).

Since the launch of our first products in the audio market, Ansuz key endeavor has always been to effectively bring down the disturbing noise floor in any audio/video system without harming the spectrum of natural tones or manipulating the authentic uniqueness of the dynamics, energy or sound stage of the music.
Ansuz, early on, came to realize that the traditional approaches in power conditioner design have so far failed. This sparked Ansuz’s determination to embark on an absolutely new technological path using different types of sophisticated coil technologies to suppress the noise by specific countermeasures. All these technologies are scalable. So, the more of the different types of coils are integrated in an audio system, the lower will be the remaining noise floor. This will distinctly enhance the blackness and dynamics in the audio performance and guarantee an excellent and more authentic listening experience.
All the Ansuz Tesla coils build on Ansuz noise suppressing coil technology. Here, a double inverted coil is connected to the power conductors. So, when the dual coil encounters a voltage spike, a counter spike is developed in the counter wound section of the coil. Since noise spikes consist of pure voltage and carry virtually no charge, the resulting cancellation is extremely good, but still not a 100 percent. However, by adding more noise suppressing coils in parallel, their noise suppressing performance increases significantly and with that both the authenticity and the perceived blackness in the music will be even further enhanced. In the range of Ansuz PowerSwitches, there is a number of different noise reduction technologies at work depending on the type and extent of the intended noise cancellation:
