The A-16D distributes a 16-channel Pro16 A-Net stream to up to eight additional Pro16 devices.
Features
One A-Net input, eight A-Net outputs
Can insert DC power for up to eight A-Net devices into the Cat-5e cable
½-rack-space footprint - mounts easily on standard rack shelf
A-Net activity LEDs on the main input
DC power indicator LEDs on each output jack
Multiple A-16D Distributors can be used in a system
With one A-Net input and eight parallel A-Net outputs, the A-16D provides a low-cost way to replace daisy-chain connections with star configurations. The A-16D is also capable of distributing DC power out any of the eight A-Net Out jacks, eliminating the need to connect a power supply at each Personal Mixer. Any combination of powered and unpowered connections is possible; simply connect external power supplies to the A-16D on a per-channel basis as needed.
The A-16D is also a cost-effective way to refresh an A-Net signal for long runs in excess of 500ft/150m, to provide a redundant cable path in a digital snake or audio distribution system, and to split an A-Net signal to multiple output locations. There is no limit to the number of A-Net Distributors that can be used in a single system.
