A: Not necessarily. This depends on how many channels you need. One way to add more channels without an AVB switch is to connect a 2nd optically-equipped interface (MOTU or otherwise) to the optical ports of your MOTU AVB interface. One optical bank gives you 8 extra channels; two banks gives you 16 at 1x sample rates (or 8 at 2x rates).

Alternately, you can connect a 2nd MOTU AVB interface directly to the first via a single CAT-5e network cable. This single network connection lets you stream up to 128 channels (depending on the interface) between the two interfaces for additional I/O, mixing, effects processing, or whatever you need. Plus, the network cable can be up to 100 meters long.
If you would like to expand to three or four interfaces without using an AVB switch, you could combine these two techniques: connect two MOTU AVB interfaces to each other with a network cable, then connect additional interfaces to each one through their optical banks. In this scenario, the network connection carries 128 channels each way, so audio can be routed freely among all connected interfaces using the MOTU AVB interface routing grids. In addition, one of the MOTU AVB interfaces could be connected to a computer through Thunderbolt or USB, and the computer could have access to all channels on all interfaces.

All that said, however, if you are expanding to three to five MOTU AVB interfaces, the affordable MOTU AVB Switch gives you the most flexibility. Cable lengths can be 100 meters from each interface to the switch, and each device can stream 128 channels to/from the network for basic I/O routing, sub-mixing, effects processing in the mixer of another unit, etc. If you need more than five interfaces, you can use multiple switches (see example below, with two switches and six 16A interfaces for 96 channels of analog I/O).
