Description
The Focusrite RedNet D16R is a 1U rackmount, 16-channel bidirectional AES3 interface for Dante audio networks. It bridges digital consoles, power amplifiers, and other AES3-equipped audio equipment with any Dante network, with sample rate conversion on each input pair for plug-and-play operation regardless of source sample rate.
Redundancy and Additional I/O
Dual etherCON network ports and dual internal power supplies provide full redundancy with automatic failover. S/PDIF I/O on RCA connectors allows connection of CD players or solid-state recorders, and Word Clock I/O enables synchronization with external house clock systems.
Connectivity
- 16 x 16 AES3 channels on 2 x DB25 (AES59 Combined Digital I/O)
- 1 x female XLR input (replaces DB25 channels 1-2, also accepts DARS)
- 1 x male XLR output (duplicates DB25 channels 1-2)
- S/PDIF input on RCA (replaces DB25 channels 3-4)
- S/PDIF output on RCA (switchable, duplicates any DB25 channel pair)
- Word Clock input on BNC (switchable 75 ohm termination)
- Word Clock output on BNC
- 2 x etherCON Dante ports (redundant or switched mode, compatible with standard RJ45)
- 2 x IEC power inlets with retaining clips (dual redundant PSUs)
