Note on ACENet MTBF Numbers

It is important to realize that as different ACENet devices support different features the MTBF numbers between those devices will vary. The ACE-RIU for example supports 4 Mono Audio Outputs, while the ACU2 supports 4 Stereo Audio Outputs. So with a stereo operator requirement you can put 4 operators on an ACU2, but only 2 on an ACE-RIU. Additionally the ACU2 has more IO capability, software gain control, etc.
