RedNet A16R

The RedNet A16R is the latest addition to Focusrite’s range of Dante-based audio-over-IP interfaces.

Housed in a 1U=high, all-metal enclosure in line with other units in the series, the A16R features 16 channels of network-connected 24-bit, 192kHz AD/DA conversion, and offers high-quality, line-level analogue audio inputs and outputs with full network and power supply redundancy.

Analogue inputs and outputs are accessed via four rear-panel DB25 connectors wired to AES59 specification, while two XLR connectors provide additional AES 3/AES 11 (digital audio/DARS) I/O. Word Clock I/O connections are made via BNC sockets and permit switchable termination. Dual network connections are provided on locking etherCon connectors and the dual PSU power inputs include cable retaining clips.

The A16R operates at standard sample rates up to 192kHz, 24-bit, including pull up/down, with sample rate and operating levels selected remotely via host computer software. The unit offers a dynamic range of 119dB A-weighted, A/D and D/A, with a frequency response of 20Hz-20kHz ±0.15dB. Front panel indicators include triple-colour LED level indication along with sample rate, clock source, PSU and network status indicators.
