Analogue inputs and outputs are connected via four AES59-configured DB25 connectors on the rear panel, while an additional AES3 I/O pair is provided via male and female XLR connectors for further flexibility. The XLR inputs can receive DARS signals in addition to AES3. Word Clock I/O on BNC connectors allows an external device to clock the RedNet A16R MKII or sync with the external input to act as the network clock grand master. RedNet A16R MKII is ideal for permanent installations and repeated power cycles. All connectors lock and stay connected even under load, ensuring hassle-free installation and peace of mind once in the rack. Plus, all Focusrite products are backed by a 3-year warranty and award-winning customer service. Features 16-channel bi-directional analogue interface for Dante networks, with additional two-channel AES3 I/O. Precision A-D and D-A conversion with 119dB dynamic range, flat from 20Hz - 20 kHz (+/- 0.15dB). Individual input/output channel level control using RedNet Control software. Dual PSUs with locking IEC inlets. Dual locking etherCON connectors for Primary and Secondary network connections. Power supply and ethernet redundancy with auto switchover in case of failure. Front-panel LED indicators for PSU, network, sample rate, signal present and clock source status. Sample rate conversion on the AES3 inputs allows external equipment to run at any sample rate. Analogue I/O on four AES59 standard DB25 connectors. Digital I/O on a pair of XLR connectors (AES3). Rear panel XLR connector can either be used as a DARS input or as a traditional AES3 audio input. BNC connectors for Word Clock input and output. Compact 1U chassis allows maximum functionality in minimum rack space. AES67 and AES70 compliant. SMPTE ST 2110 compliant when used with Dante Domain Manager (sold separately). Full operability with Focusrite RedNet and Red interfaces, plus all Dante devices from hundreds of manufacturers. Remote control with RedNet Control, and route via Dante Control.
