The specs claim AVB on Windows, the price is very reasonable, and in this discussion on another forum, and not discussing Avid Carbon, a Sonnet tech says they have drivers and it will work.
Where does it claim AVB support on Windows? While the card supports Mac and PC, the AVB support is Mac-only AFAIK.

Unlike Mac, Windows lacks the AVB software stack to support AVB streaming. So, while you can get an AVB-compatible PCIe card to be recognized by Windows, it won't stream AVB unless you actually have proper 3P AVB software running. I don't think this is any different on Windows 11. But, I'd be very happy to be wrong if someone knows more than me.
