Focusrite RedNet D16R MkII is a 16x16 AES/EBU digital Dante interface with sample rate conversion, S/PDIF, word clock and per-channel input and output trim.
Brings AES digital gear onto a Dante network.
Overview
RedNet D16R MkII is a 16-channel bi-directional digital interface for Dante networks. The 1U rackmount device features individual input and output channel level controls, allowing for precise calibration and control of all input and output levels using RedNet Control. RedNet D16R MkII features power supply and Ethernet redundancy with auto switchover in case of failure. Various connection options make RedNet D16R MkII a flexible addition to any Audio-over-IP system.
A pair of DB25 multipin connectors each connect eight channels of AES3 I/O into and out of the interface, while XLR and RCA ports enable two-channel AES3 and S/PDIF connections, respectively, to be made. Sample rate conversion on every input enables external equipment to operate at different sample rates, and DARS signals are accepted on the XLR connector. Word Clock I/O on BNC connectors allows synchronisation to house clock, or syncing external equipment to the Dante network.
