{{short description|Method of carrying ATM cells over Ethernet for use by AES47}}
'''AES51''' is a standard first published by the [[Audio Engineering Society]] in June 2006<ref>[http://www.aes.org/publications/standards/search.cfm?docID=49 AES51-2006 (s2017): AES standard for digital audio - Digital input-output interfacing - Transmission of ATM cells over Ethernet physical layer]</ref> that specifies a method of carrying [[Asynchronous Transfer Mode]] (ATM) cells over [[Ethernet]] physical structure intended in particular for use with [[AES47]] to carry [[AES3]] digital audio transport structure. The purpose of this is to provide an open standard, [[Ethernet]] based approach to the networking of linear (uncompressed) digital audio with extremely high quality-of-service alongside standard [[Internet Protocol]] connections.
This standard specifies a method, also known as "ATM-E", of carrying ATM cells over hardware specified for [[IEEE 802.3]] (Ethernet). It is intended as a companion standard to [[AES47]] (Transmission of digital audio over ATM networks), to provide a standard method of carrying ATM cells and real-time clock over hardware specified for Ethernet.
