Focusrite REDNET A16R MKII High quality 16-channel analogue interface for Dante networks

Focusrite REDNET  A16R MKII High quality 16-channel analogue interface for Dante networksRedNet A16R MkII is a 16-channel analogue interface for Dante® networks, with two channels of AES3 I/O. Precision A-D and D-A conversion provides 119dB of dynamic range, flat from 20Hz - 20kHz (+/- 0.15dB). Individual input and output channel level controls allow for precise adjustment of all I/O levels using RedNet Control. With two power supplies and primary and secondary EtherCON network connectors, RedNet A16R MkII is perfect for critical-path applications in recording, post production, live sound and broadcast. Built-in redundancy features allow for silent fail-over in the event of power or network outage, providing reassurance for system technicians.Analogue inputs and outputs are connected through four rear-panel AES59 standard DB25 connectors, while an additional pair of AES3 I/O is provided through male and female XLR for added flexibility. The XLR input can accept DARS signals in addition to AES3. Word Clock I/O on BNC connectors allows external devices to clock to RedNet A16R MkII, or alternatively allows RedNet A16R MkII to act as a network clock grand master, following an external input.RedNet A16R MkII is well suited to both permanent installation and repeated strike and setup: all connectors lock and remain terminated even under stress, providing worry-free installation and peace of mind once situated in a rack. In addition, all Focusrite Pro products come with a three-year warranty and award-winning customer support.   16 channels of high-quality line-level analogue I/O for Dante Audio-over-IP networks Individual input/output channel level control and calibration available in +/- 1db increments via digital trim fader with mute and dim functions 24-bit precision conversion up to 192kHz 119dB dynamic range, flat from 20Hz – 20kHz, +/-0.15dB Software-selectable +24dBu or +18dBu level alignment AES67, AES70 and SMPTE 2110 compliant Dual power supplies and network connections with full power and network redundancy including locking connectors for maximum reliability Word Clock I/O and DARS input for increased flexibility plus an additional two channels of AES3 I/O Analogue I/O to AES59 standard DB25 connectors Comprehensive front-panel metering and indicators RedNet Control remote monitoring software with powerful graphic user interface   Specifications LINE INPUTS 0 DBFS Reference Levels +18 or 24dBu (switchable) Frequency Response 20Hz – 20kHz ± 0.1dB THD+N Less than -100dB (0.001) unweighted, 20Hz – 20kHz; -1dBFS input EIN -96dBu A-Weighted (typical) Signal-To-Noise Ratio 120dB A-Weighted (typical) Converter Dynamic Range 120dB A-Weighted (typical), 10Hz – 20kHz LINE OUTPUTS 0 DBFS Reference Levels Outputs 18 or 24dBu (switchable) Frequency Response Outputs 20Hz – 20kHz ± 0.1dB THD+N Outputs Less than -100dB (0.001) unweighted, 20Hz – 20kHz; 23dBu input Noise In Presence Of Signal -94dBu A-Weighted (typical) Dynamic Range 118 dB A-Weighted (typical) Converter Dynamic Range Output 120dB A-Weighted (typical), 10Hz – 20kHz CROSSTALK Input To Output Or Input Less than -100dB unweighted, 20Hz – 20kHz; 23dBu input Output To Input Or Output Less than -100dB unweighted, 20Hz – 20kHz; -1dBFS input DIGITAL INPUT SAMPLE RATE CONVERTERS Sample Rate Range 32kHz to 216kHz Gain Error -0.3dB Dynamic Range Inputs Greater than 138dB THD+N Inputs Less than -130dB (0.00003) Latency 11 to 45 samples (network and sample rate dependent) DIGITAL PERFORMANCE Supported Sample Rates 44.1 / 48 / 88.2 / 96 / 176.4 / 192 kHz (-4 / -0.1 / 0.1 / 4.167) at 24 bit Clock Sources Internal or from Dante Network Master External Word Clock Range Nominal sample rate ±7.5 REAR PANEL CONNECTIVITY Line Inputs 2 x DB25 connectors Line Outputs 2 x DB25 connectors Channel Count 2 x 2 AES/EBU channels Input (Optional DARS) 1 x Female XLR (Switchable with analogue input channels 15 and 16 at quad rates) Output 1 x Male XLR (Duplicate of analogue output channels 15 and 16 at quad rates) Word Clock Input 1 x BNC 75O port (switchable termination) Word Clock Output 1 x BNC 75O port PSU 2 x IEC Inputs with retaining clips Network 2 x EtherCON NE8FBH, also compatible with standard RJ45 connectors FRONT PANEL INDICATORS Primary PSU (A) Green LED.
