YES AVB needs the switch or router support
They use their own packets format. it is on the same level than the
icmp, ipv4 packets, ipv6, dec, vax, ethertalk etc...
They are a few Linux opensource projects. It is not that simple. It
uses the timestamp by the network card. The card should have this
support. Among the few projects, they supports a few compatible cards
(today).

There is AES67 which is not proprietary and many DANTE devices
support it. Even Focusrite devices.
https://github.com/jackaudio/jack2/issues/311
https://aes67.app/resources
https://hartung.io/
I own an Rednet (32 channel ADAT @ 48KHz max) using Dante under
Windows but have not have the time to look into developing a Linux
AES67 pipewire or jack driver
It seems some progress has been
made. https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-audio-dev@lists.linuxaudio.org/msg20043.…
AFAIK, for AVB you need a switch that supports it while they were
working on something that does not have that reuqirement, with DANTE
any network switch can be used
Focusrite has a some good article on switch configuration for Dante.

From what I read, NetJack sends audio buffers with UDP.
Though, I think you are right it is actually better to make sure all
cables are able to handle as much data as needed. The switch itself
is a GREENnet (5 ports, 10 GB/s max according to seller). Though, as
you pointed out, some of the bandwidth might be occupied by some
other processes (I think I kept internet plugged to the switch, which
might be something to remove to maximize audio "priority").
It is very interesting to have this talk anyway, since I am very
interested in the capabilities of audio over ethernet, though I'm not
a network expert. I didn't heard about AVB before, and I'm very
curious to know if there are some open-source implementations of
these protocols for multichannel/multidirectional audio ?

If you are using 192K sample rate, 32 bits, 32 channels is a 197Mhz
bandwidth. It is not that low. Correct me if I am wrong, netjack is
TCP/IP, not AVB? transmiting at 20% of the maximum is subject to
some care as the TCP/IP does not have clean priority management.
Are you using the switch for other computers? do you send more data
(especially when connect and siconnect)? is it a cheap switch
(which run as "store and forward")?
If you are ready to sacrify a cable (or buy the sortest in the same
serie), cut it and check if the pairs are separated by a metalic
sheet to each other (+ the general rfi propection). Crosstalks can
generate retries.

https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/jackaudio The connection was made with GB ethernet switch
(though, I'm not
completely sure of the speed of RJ45 cables I used), so I don't
think it's a bandwith limitation.
It was fixed my setting latency to 1 (instead of 5 by default).

What is the bit depth and sample rate? What is the nature of
the network
connection you are using? If you are using an older WiFi or USB
2.0
network adapter, you might be hitting network bandwidth
limitations.
