RedNet D16 AES is a 1U, 16×16 AES3 interface for any Dante audio-over-IP network. Featuring network redundancy, RedNet D16 AES is the ideal choice for providing AES3 I/O in many applications, whether in Post Production, Broadcast, Live Sound or the Recording Studio.
Four rear-panel DB25 connectors wired to the AES59 standard provide eight pairs of AES3 I/O, while an additional pair of XLR connectors allows flexibility in cabling choice for one pair of I/O. Additional RCA connectors allow the connection of consumer S/PDIF equipment. All external audio inputs include sample rate conversion, further reducing cabling and clocking complexity. Word Clock I/O on BNC connectors allows external devices to clock to RedNet D16 AES, or alternatively allows RedNet D16 AES to act as a network clock grand master slaved to external input. Power is supplied through a pair of locking IEC power inlets, and network connections are provided with a pair of locking Neutrik etherCON connectors; providing redundant operation or daisy-chained operation.
