Description
The Focusrite RedNet A16R MkII connects 16 channels of analogue audio in each direction to a Dante network and also provides two-channel AES3 digital I/O. Individual channel-level adjustment through RedNet Control supports installed, broadcast, and live-audio routing.
Features
- 16-channel bidirectional analogue interface for Dante
- Additional two-channel AES3 digital input and output
- Four AES59-standard DB25 connectors for analogue I/O
- Individual input and output level control through RedNet Control
- Dual power supplies with locking IEC inputs
- Primary and secondary locking etherCON network ports
- Automatic power and network failover
- Sample-rate conversion on the AES3 inputs
- 1U rackmount chassis and front-panel status indicators
Why We Like This
Independent channel-level control and redundant power/network connections address practical needs in larger Dante installations. The additional AES3 path makes it possible to connect compatible digital devices alongside analogue equipment.
